Bahia make decision on Everton Ribeiro’s future, ex-Flamengo star | OneFootball

What happened with Everton Ribeiro at Bahia?

Bahia has already started planning for the 2026 season. One of the main pending issues at the end of 2025 was to define the future of Everton Ribeiro. With that in mind, the Bahia team has ‘made a decision’ regarding the situation of the former Flamengo player.

According to information released by ‘GE’, Everton Ribeiro has renewed his contract with Bahia for one more season. In other words, the midfielder will play for the Bahia club until the end of 2026.

It’s important to note that Everton Ribeiro had an automatic renewal clause if he reached a target set at the start of the contract. However, since he did not play more than 60 minutes in 60% of the matches he appeared in during 2025, both parties had to reach a mutual agreement for the contract extension.

Everton Ribeiro has been playing for Bahia since 2024, when he left Flamengo. The player joined the Bahia club with the intention of being one of the main figures in the team’s transformation in the Brazilian football scene.
