Transfer activity involving Brazilian club Palmeiras has seen developments in both men’s and women’s football.

In the men’s sector, Atalanta reportedly withdrew interest in acquiring midfielder Mauricio. This shift occurred after a potential transfer for Atalanta’s Ederson to Manchester United collapsed due to physical concerns identified during medical examinations. While Palmeiras had been willing to negotiate Mauricio’s transfer for approximately €18 million, the change in Atalanta’s plans has left the club seeking other midfield reinforcements, such as Gustavo Puerta.

In women’s football, Palmeiras is evaluating an offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Qadsiah for defender Pati Maldaner. The proposal is valued at approximately $800,000 (R$ 4.1 million), which would constitute the second-largest sale in the history of Brazilian women’s football if finalized.
