Gabriel Mec transfer collapse

Entities: Cleber Eduardo · Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense · Shakhtar Donetsk · Gabriel Mec · Odorico Roman

Overview

In late July 2026, negotiations between Brazil's Grêmio and Ukraine's Shakhtar Donetsk to sign 18‑year‑old Gabriel Mec for roughly €12 million fell apart. The first report highlighted the player and his representatives rejecting added salary and appearance‑bonus demands, alongside concerns about Shakhtar’s project and the ongoing Russia‑Ukraine war, leaving Mec on Grêmio’s roster.

Two days later, the collapse was reaffirmed. Mec’s agent, Cleber Eduardo of Hub Agent Sports, denied any free‑transfer rumors and noted a renewal clause that would keep the player at Grêmio if no move materialises before the window closes. The agent also mentioned interest from other clubs, such as Hull City, and confirmed that Mec is expected to play in Grêmio’s upcoming league match against Fluminense.
