Who can still leave Fluminense? | OneFootball

The Brazilian Championship regulations have undergone an important change: the limit on matches a player can play before being barred from transferring to another Série A club has increased from 6 to 12 games.

Upon taking the field for the 13th time, the player is officially blocked from representing another rival in the same division during the season.

With the national calendar paused for the FIFA World Cup, the picture of Fluminense’s squad in relation to this cutoff line is now clear.
