Flamengo is looking to sign Kaiki Bruno, Cruzeiro’s left back. For this reason, the Minas Gerais club is already searching the transfer market for another player in the position.
According to ESPN, Cruzeiro became pessimistic about renewing Kaiki Bruno’s contract after interest from Flamengo. Talks are not progressing, and the Minas Gerais club is already keeping an eye on possible replacements for the full-back.
Another important point is that Cruzeiro does not intend to lose Kaiki Bruno for free, especially to Flamengo. For this reason, the Minas Gerais club believes it is better to sell the left back than to lose him without receiving any fee.
Currently, Kaiki is under contract with Cruzeiro until the end of the 2027 season and is open to negotiating an extension. Because of Flamengo’s interest, the Minas Gerais club intends to begin talks during the World Cup.
Cruzeiro has not made progress in signing any player so far. However, the Minas Gerais club has a few names on its priority list. Wendell, from São Paulo, could be one of Kaiki Bruno’s replacements.
