Grêmio keeps Wagner Leonardo through 2026 as Tiaguinho set to resume training

Grêmio rejected Corinthians' request to take defender Wagner Leonardo on loan, confirming the player will remain with the club at least until the end of 2026. The club sees Leonardo as a key part of its defensive plans and may consider a permanent transfer only if a suitable offer emerges.

Meanwhile, 18‑year‑old midfielder Tiaguinho, who missed about a month of action due to a severe migraine, has been cleared by medical examinations. He is expected to re‑join first‑team training next week at the club’s CT Luiz Carvalho, with a gradual physical reintegration planned. The club is also negotiating an extension of his contract, currently running until July 2027, to secure his future at Grêmio.
