Iago Borduchi loan saga amid São Paulo ban

Overview

In late July 2026 Bahia announced a season‑long loan for left‑back Iago Borduchi. An initial plan to send him to Internacional was quickly replaced by a deal with São Paulo FC, which the player said he preferred and which was presented as part of São Paulo’s wage‑bill management.

The loan was completed on 29 July, with São Paulo assuming Borduchi’s salary and the player undergoing medicals in the capital. However, the club’s registration of the defender is hampered by a FIFA transfer ban imposed over an unpaid €1 million debt to Italy’s Lazio from a previous transfer. The ban also blocks defender Domingos Duarte and other new signings until the debt is settled. The agreement contains no purchase option; Borduchi is set to return to Bahia in 2027 unless a further arrangement is reached.
