Fluminense sign Hulk until 2027 after Atlético Mineiro exit | OneFootball

Fluminense confirmed this Tuesday the signing of Hulk, 39, who had been playing for Atlético Mineiro. The forward signed a contract until the end of 2027 and is the Rio club’s first signing in this transfer window.

Hulk’s debut for his new club can only happen after the Club World Cup, when the transfer market in Brazilian football reopens. If everything goes as expected, the forward should wear the Fluminense shirt for the first time in the week of July 22, against Bragantino, in a match from the 19th round of the Brasileirão.

The move was completed at no cost for Flu, since the former FC Porto player terminated his contract with Galo last Friday, following a meeting between his representatives and the board of the Minas Gerais club. Talks began in January, were even considered over, but were successfully resumed in recent weeks.

The farewell to Atlético’s fans is scheduled for next Sunday at Arena MRV, before the team’s match against Botafogo.

During five years with Atlético Mineiro, the forward made more than 300 appearances, scored 140 goals and provided 56 assists. In that period, he won one Brasileirão (2021), one Copa do Brasil (2021), one Supercopa do Brasil (2022) and five Campeonato Mineiro titles (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025).

At Fluminense, Hulk will wear the No. 7 shirt, the same number he used at his previous club. The player’s arrival in Rio de Janeiro is expected at the beginning of next week.
