São Paulo has reached an agreement to renew the contract with forward Luciano. The parties have not yet defined the duration of the new deal, but there is already a proposal on the club’s table that meets the player’s demands and the club’s current situation.

At the moment, the decision rests with São Paulo’s board, led by Rui Costa in the football department. Although a final decision has not yet been made, the trend is towards a positive outcome in the negotiations.

São Paulo is evaluating the overall scenario and there are still some details to be finalized with the player’s representatives. It’s worth remembering that Luciano’s current contract is only valid until the end of this season, and he would be free to sign a pre-contract as early as mid-year.

São Paulo wanted to renew with Luciano, who is considered an important piece for Hernán Crespo’s squad and seen as one of the team’s leaders. The striker’s willingness has made a difference in the negotiations.

The information was initially reported by ESPN and confirmed by Gazeta Esportiva.

Name circulating in the market

Since October, Luciano’s name has been circulating in the transfer market. The forward was approached by Vasco, but the negotiation did not move forward. In addition to the Rio de Janeiro team, three clubs from both the domestic and international markets have shown interest in Luciano at the beginning of this month.

At São Paulo since 2020, the striker is one of Tricolor’s main players. In six seasons, he has played 327 matches, scored 104 goals, and provided 31 assists. Luciano was part of the squads that won the Copa do Brasil in 2023 and the Supercopa do Brasil in 2024.
