Palmeiras targets R$ 81 million from sales of three loaned players
Palmeiras projects raising over R$ 81 million from the definitive sales of three loaned players, Luighi, Micael, and Rômulo, who are not in coach Abel Ferreira's plans for the 2027 season. Luighi, on loan to New York City FC, has a purchase option set at $6 million (about R$ 31.2 million) after being named the club's best player for two consecutive months. Defender Micael, at Inter Miami, could generate approximately R$ 30 million, while midfielder Rômulo, at Novorizontino, is valued at over R$ 20 million. The club's board views these deals as a way to boost revenue and optimize the squad without relying solely on selling players currently in the main team's plans. The outcome of Rômulo's negotiation depends on Novorizontino's Serie B campaign, with the club monitoring each transfer's progress.
