Goiás enquire about Lelê, striker’s 2026 future still unclear | OneFootball

The forward Lelê, who belongs to Fluminense and stood out in the last Série B, has caught the attention of another club from the Central-West. According to information from the Esporte Goiano portal, Goiás made a formal inquiry to the tricolor management to understand the player's situation with an eye on the next season.

Despite the interest, Fluminense has not yet decided on the player's future. The Rio de Janeiro club is internally evaluating whether Lelê will be reintegrated into the squad for the 2026 competitions or if he will be used as a bargaining chip or loaned out again.

Before Goiás's approach, Atlético-GO, the club where Lelê played on loan in 2025, tried to secure the striker's stay. However, negotiations for the contract renewal failed due to a financial disagreement between the parties regarding the player's salary division.
