On his way out? Ganso misses another Brasileirão game | OneFootball

Paulo Henrique Ganso’s future at Fluminense has once again become a topic behind the scenes at the club. The midfielder has reached 12 appearances in the competition and is now just one game away from hitting the regulatory limit that would prevent him from playing for another Série A team in 2026. And with fewer and fewer chances under Zubeldía, the No. 10’s future at Flu remains uncertain.

Under CBF rules, a player who completes 13 matches in the Brasileirão for one club is no longer allowed to play for another team in the same division in that same edition of the championship. That is why the fact that Ganso has remained on 12 appearances in recent rounds has fueled speculation about a possible departure, especially amid discussions over a contract renewal.

Ganso’s contract with Fluminense runs until the end of 2026, but the 36-year-old midfielder has still not had an extension officially announced. However, the player has continued to be included in the squad and could still make his 13th appearance, which would all but rule out any possibility of a transfer to another Série A club in this mid-year transfer window. Even so, from that point on he would be able to sign a pre-contract with any team in the world.

Since arriving at Fluminense in 2019, Ganso has built a remarkable career wearing the tricolor shirt. The midfielder became a key figure in the team’s technical rebuild, starred in historic campaigns, and played a decisive role in winning the club’s first-ever Copa Libertadores title in 2023. Up to the time of this report, he had made 316 appearances for the club, along with 30 goals and 35 assists.
