Palmeiras continues its squad planning for the 2026 season. In addition to the offers received for forward Luighi, Verdão has also received inquiries regarding a possible sale of Facundo Torres. The Uruguayan joined Alviverde last year.
Palmeiras has received an offer from Austin FC, from the United States, for the sale of Uruguayan forward Facundo Torres. According to information from The Athletic and confirmed by NOSSO PALESTRA, the Major League Soccer team is willing to pay around US$ 9.5 million (R$ 51 million) for the player. Negotiations are still ongoing.
Signed by Palmeiras last year for approximately R$ 70 million from Orlando City, Facundo played a significant role in the team, but was unable to fully excite the fans and coaching staff. In total, he played 61 matches, scoring 10 goals and providing four assists.
At the end of the season, coach Abel Ferreira stated that he did not wish to negotiate the Uruguayan, nor forward Sosa, who joined the club in 2025. However, the offer from Austin FC may lead the management to reconsider their plans for the next season.
