Remo negotiated a contract extension for right‑back Marcelinho, trimmed its squad and began a R$15 million training centre. Grêmio continued to stabilise finances, extending key players while cutting wages; it confirmed the €15 million sale of Viery to Fiorentina and paused talks for Nicolás Valentini. The club is now scouting a left‑footed centre‑back but any deal must fit its budget, and it rejected Corinthians’ loan offer for Wagner Leonardo, keeping him for the long term pending a financially viable permanent move. Vitória faced a FIFA registration ban after not settling a €120 000 debt to Portimonense linked to Wagner Leonardo’s 2023 transfer; the club intends to negotiate a payment plan and has already registered new signings Brítez, Fabiano, Wallace and Pochettino. Flamengo, under José Boto and Leonardo Jardim, prepared three signings within strict limits and saw Samuel Lino’s form rise. Palmeiras monitored Paraguayan midfielder Julio Enciso, while Santos evaluated offers for 19‑year‑old Matheus Xavier. The league’s top spenders remain Flamengo and Palmeiras after the World Cup. In early August 2026 Grêmio reiterated its financial caution, continuing the search for a left‑footed centre‑back while confirming that any new defender must meet both sporting and fiscal criteria. The club again turned down Corinthians’ proposal to take Wagner Leonardo on loan, emphasizing his role in long‑term plans. Meanwhile, Vitória was hit with a FIFA transfer ban after an unpaid €110 k debt to Portimonense stemming from the 2025 sale of Wagner Leonardo to Grêmio. The sanction will be lifted once the outstanding amount is settled.
