The Fluminense management is already shifting its focus to the 2026 season and is considering the possibility of no longer counting on players Everaldo, Keno, and Thiago Santos. The club’s intention is to reduce the wage bill, which could lead to the trio being released without transfer fees. The information about the possible departures was initially reported by the “Hora do Flu” channel.

Players’ situation

Everaldo ended the year without scoring a goal for over four months, having last found the net on August 2nd, against Grêmio. Despite being under contract until the end of 2026, the striker never managed to convince fans that he could be the team’s main goal scorer.

Keno, known for his speed on the wings, has also underperformed this season. The forward, who renewed his contract until 2026 at the start of the year, scored six goals and provided four assists in 40 matches.

Thiago Santos, whose contract runs until next year, has lost his place in the squad since Zubeldía’s arrival. The defender has made only three appearances under the Argentine coach.

Marathon of matches

In 2026, Fluminense will face a packed schedule. In addition to the State Championship, Copa do Brasil, and Brasileirão, the Rio team is already guaranteed a spot in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores da América.
