Corinthians consider Tijuana forward Vitinho for wide role | OneFootball

Corinthians are pursuing attacking reinforcements for the remainder of 2026 and are assessing a move for Tijuana forward Vitinho.

According to Meu Timao, the 24-year-old has been offered to the club and is among the options being evaluated as they target quick wide attackers.

A São Paulo academy graduate and Copinha winner in 2019, Vitinho made two senior appearances before moving to Mexico in 2022 to join Atlético San Luis. He switched to Tijuana at the start of 2025/26 and has featured in 11 of the club’s 23 matches since.

The move has Dorival Júnior’s approval as he looks to bolster his attacking options. The player wants to return to Brazil and represent Corinthians, with a loan until the end of 2026, including an option to buy, under discussion at an early stage. His career record stands at 114 games, 23 goals and eight assists.

Corinthians also have advanced talks to sign Kaio César from Al Hilal. The 21-year-old is expected to arrive in São Paulo on Tuesday for a medical at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava before an announcement. He will join on loan with an option to buy set at 6 million euros for 50% of his rights, with Corinthians covering his wages, and he remains under contract with the Saudi club until June 2028.
