Carlos Vinícius negotiates contract renewal with Grêmio

Grêmio striker Carlos Vinícius is currently in negotiations to renew his contract with the club following a standout performance in the Copa do Brasil. After scoring two goals in a 3-1 victory over rival Internacional, which secured Grêmio's place in the semifinals against Atlético-MG, the forward addressed his future.

While his current contract runs until December 2026, Grêmio is working to extend his stay until the end of 2028 with a salary increase. Negotiations have been ongoing since the first half of the year, experiencing periods of both progress and stagnation. Carlos Vinícius confirmed that talks are active, stating, “What I can say is that we are in talks, period.”

The player has attracted interest from clubs in the Mexican league and MLS, as his current contract status allows him to discuss pre-contracts with other teams. His representatives were present at the Arena during the recent victory to monitor the situation.
