+ Palmeiras makes a proposal to have Arias as a second reinforcement in the window
The Rio club has until this Wednesday (4) to match the values signaled by Palmeiras. Notification of the alviverde proposal was sent by the Wolverhampton board itself in recent days. The short response time, in turn, reduces Fluminense’s chances in negotiations, according to the report from Lance!.
Palmeiras’ main advantage is the high value offered by Arias. To date, Fluminense’s biggest signing was striker Canobbio, for 6 million euros, a value 19 million lower than the proposal presented by the São Paulo club for the Colombian.

Now, the decision is in the hands of Arias, who is evaluating the next steps in negotiating the contractual bases with Palmeiras, confident of a positive outcome.
Palmeiras, according to the report, sought to sign Jhon Arias at the beginning of last season, when the player played for Fluminense. The move was denied by the Tricolor board, which kept the athlete for the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States, and subsequently traded him to Wolverhampton.

– In Arias’ contract, we have a player preference clause and we need to be notified. Our plan is to exercise this preference. We don’t know the value, but we are planning for it – said Montenegro, during his first press conference as president of Fluminense.

After changing the plan drawn up at the beginning of 2025, Palmeiras started to invest in names ready to contribute in the short term, such as Andreas Pereira, the last of the club’s 12 signings in the process of reformulating the squad.
Since the opening of the transfer window, Palmeiras has traded five players: Raphael Veiga and Micael, on loan, in addition to Facundo Torres, Aníbal Moreno and Weverton, permanently. Marlon Freitas, ex-Botafogo, was the only arrival.
It is worth remembering that the club has until March 3rd, the date that marks the end of the transfer market in Brazilian football, to sign up new signings.
