Internacional is going through a difficult financial situation and the sale of players has become a necessity. Thus, the team from Rio Grande do Sul is close to finalizing the transfer of the young center forward Ricardo Mathias, 19 years old, to Al Ahli, a club from Saudi Arabia.

According to information from GE, the negotiation is in its final stages and should be made official in the coming days, with amounts that could bring significant figures to the Colorado club's coffers.

Million-dollar deal and division of rights

The Saudi club will present a proposal of US$ 10 million (about R$ 55 million) for the striker. Internacional holds 60% of the young player's economic rights, while Ferroviária owns the remaining 40%.

Thus, about R$ 33 million would go to the club's coffers, bringing it closer to reaching its target for negotiations this season. Colorado has set a goal of receiving around R$ 160 million from player sales in 2025.
