Just like Flamengo, Palmeiras remains attentive to the transfer market and seeks to strengthen the squad for the 2026 season. Thus, the São Paulo team has shown interest in signing the defender Alexsandro, currently at Lille (FRA) and revealed by the Most Beloved.
According to the site ‘Nosso Palestra’, Palmeiras understands that the negotiation is considered very difficult due to the player's career moment, at 26 years old. This is because Lille is in the middle of the season and does not intend to part with the former Flamengo player.
Thus, Alexsandro has a contract with Lille until June 2028. Additionally, the former Flamengo defender has a value set at 20 million euros (R$ 124.6 million at the current exchange rate). Therefore, if they want to sign the player, Palmeiras would have to spend significantly.
Alexsandro was revealed by Flamengo. However, the defender did not play in the main squad of the red-black team, being transferred to the under-20 team of Resende in 2018. Shortly after, he moved to SC Praiense (POR), Amora (POR), and Chaves (POR), before joining Lille in 2022.
Flamengo, former team of Alexsandro, remains focused on the upcoming matches of the season. This is because the red-black team faces Corinthians this Sunday (01), at 4 PM (Brasília time), in a match valid for the Supercopa do Brasil final.
Thus, Coluna do Fla brings all the information directly from the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília. Additionally, TV Globo, on open television, will broadcast the game. GE, via YouTube, will show the classic. Finally, Premiere, on pay-per-view, will also broadcast the match.
