Dream come true: agent tells São Paulo of European interest in Pablo Maia | OneFootball

In October, AVANTE MEU TRICOLOR revealed that São Paulo’s management saw midfielder Pablo Maia as one of their hopes for securing a good sale of one of their players to Europe in this transfer window.

Well, the prophecy has come true as predicted. According to the report’s findings this Friday (12), the 23-year-old player’s agents confirmed to Tricolor that two clubs have made inquiries, both European—one from Germany and one from Russia.

With the green light given by the Morumbi club, the expectation is that an official offer will be formalized over the course of next week.

Pablo Maia has been strongly considered as a potential lucrative sale for São Paulo since 2022, when he was promoted to the professional squad. Tricolor even turned down an approach from Fulham, from England, at the end of that season.

In 2023, during the European summer transfer window, the club decided to heed then-coach Dorival Júnior’s request and kept the midfielder for the Copa do Brasil campaign. It paid off, resulting in a title, but the player ended up suffering a serious injury, which led Spanish club Betis to withdraw from making an offer.

With a contract until the end of 2027, Maia played 44 matches this season, scoring two goals. He had an inconsistent season, marked by injuries. There were two of them, which cost him a total of 14 matches out.
