Ryan Guilherme set for Cruzeiro exit, likely to join Rio Ave in Portugal | OneFootball

Cruzeiro has received a proposal for midfielder Ryan Guilherme, who is a target of interest for the Portuguese club Rio Ave, which is said to have made an offer of approximately 2.5 million euros (about R$ 15.5 million) to sign the 23-year-old player, according to Rádio Itatiaia and Central da Toca, which reported the figures.

With the possibility of a transfer, the midfielder ended up being left out of the squad for the match against Atlético-MG in the Campeonato Mineiro, played this Sunday (25), when the celestial team was defeated 2-1 at the Arena in Belo Horizonte.

Ryan joined Cruzeiro in September 2025, in a deal that involved around R$ 9 million for 85% of his economic rights, with Fortaleza retaining part of the rights. During this period, the player took the field only six times, with no goals or assists.

If the deal with Rio Ave is completed, Ryan Guilherme would return to Portuguese football — a country where he stood out for União Leiria during the Portuguese Second League in the 24/25 season, playing in 29 matches, scoring one goal, and providing three assists for the Portuguese club.
