The international transfer window closed last Tuesday, but Corinthians still does not consider its squad finalized. The club’s management sees the exception window as a last chance to strengthen Dorival Júnior’s roster.
The exception window will remain open until March 27. During this period, Timão and other Brazilian clubs can sign players who are free agents or those who have played in the state championships.
Gazeta Esportiva conducted a poll with Corinthians fans, asking which positions the club still needs to reinforce. The most voted option was the attack, with 55.4%, followed by the goalkeeper position, with 24.3%.

Corinthians is monitoring possible names to strengthen its squad. Coach Dorival Júnior believes the club needs to bring in more players to cope with the intense Brazilian football calendar.
One of the positions prioritized by Timão is the goalkeeper. The management is looking for a backup for Hugo Souza, since João Ricardo, from Fortaleza, was rejected in medical exams and will not be signed.
Goalkeeper Neto, from Botafogo, is one of the names on the club’s radar. The club has inquired about the player’s situation, but negotiations have not advanced yet.

Facing a financial crisis, Corinthians is avoiding paying transfer fees. The club, led by football executive Marcelo Paz, is looking for free agents or players available for loan.
Timão has already signed seven reinforcements for 2026: Gabriel Paulista, Matheus Pereira, Pedro Milans, Kaio César, Zakaria Labyad, Allan, and Jesse Lingard.
