São Paulo FC has secured the future of Argentine striker Jonathan Calleri, renewing his contract through the end of 2028 with a performance-based option to extend until 2029. 

As Calleri returned to the squad following an ankle sprain, the club continued to navigate significant internal instability. These challenges include political shifts following the removal of former president Julio Casares, as well as financial difficulties characterized by delays in salary and image rights payments. Calleri addressed these economic hardships, stating that ‘nobody is here for the money’ and emphasizing the squad's continued focus on performance despite the club's management and financial struggles.
