América-MEX show interest in Raphael Veiga from Palmeiras | OneFootball

Raphael Veiga has become a target for Mexican football in recent hours. Club América of Mexico, coached by Brazilian André Jardine, is reportedly interested in signing the player during this transfer window.

The management of Palmeiras and the Mexican club are already in talks to agree on the transfer fee, according to information from ESPN Mexico. The main obstacle so far is the lack of space for Veiga due to the limited number of foreign player slots available in the Mexican League. América is looking for alternatives to free up a spot by potentially moving Víctor Dávila or José Zúñiga.

The current value of the player is around ten million dollars (about R$ 54 million). The expectation is that América will try to lower this amount in negotiations with Palmeiras.

Raphael Veiga's contract with the São Paulo team runs until March 2027. Despite his contract, according to the report, the player is interested in joining the Mexican club.

If negotiations with Palmeiras fall through, América already has its sights set on another player from the São Paulo club: midfielder Maurício.

For Palmeiras, Raphael Veiga has played 378 matches, scored 108 goals, and provided 54 assists, in addition to winning two Copa Libertadores, two Brazilian Championships, one Copa do Brasil, four São Paulo State Championships, one Recopa Sudamericana, and one Brazilian Supercup.
