Internacional transfer negotiations

Entities: Sport Club Internacional · Paulo Pezzolano · Alex Arce · Rosario Central · Braian Aguirre

Overview

In July 2026, Brazilian club Internacional moved from denying interest in Paraguayan striker Alex Arce to actively seeking funds for a possible signing by selling right‑back Braian Aguirre. After refuting rumors on July 18, the club reopened talks with Argentina’s Rosario Central on July 24, insisting on a permanent sale while the Argentine side preferred a loan. Negotiations stalled as the parties could not agree on the deal structure.

By July 29, Internacional completed a permanent transfer of Aguirre to Rosario Central for a reported US$1.6 million, netting a small profit over the US$1.4 million purchase price. The proceeds are earmarked to increase financial flexibility for the targeted acquisition of 25‑year‑old striker Alex Arce, confirming the club’s strategy of converting defensive assets into funds for a forward.

The sequence shows a clear progression from disputed interest in Arce to a concrete sale of Aguirre aimed at financing that potential signing.
