The Argentine steering wheel Fausto Vera, currently in CorinthiansIt's in the sights of Atlético-MG. The mining club polled the player's spare, but has not yet formalized a proposal to Timão, according to information.
This season, Fausto Vera has not been able to become the absolute holder of the Corinthian team. He took part in 22 of the 29 games played by Corinthians, being holder in only seven opportunities. In terms of numbers, Vera scored only one goal and provided assistance, statistics considered timid for a steering wheel of its quality and investment.
The hiring of Fausto Vera by Corinthians occurred in 2022, when the club disbursed U$ 8 million (approximately R$ 40 million in the quotation of the time). The player was a request of then coach Vítor Pereira and had a promising start at the club. However, his performance fluctuated last season, in which he won only 13 of the 47 games he played.
In 2024, Fausto Vera had a titular sequence, especially after Maycon's injury, but could not stand out. With Maycon's recovery and the rise of the 19-year-old Breno Bidon, who was prominent in the conquest of Copinha, Vera lost space in the starting team.
In addition to field performance, there is a financial factor that can influence the possible transfer of Fausto Vera. O Corinthians was sentenced by FIFA to pay U$ 3.45 million (about R$ 17 million) to Argentineos Juniors, the player's previous club, due to a debt for his purchase. This figure has an interest increase of 18% per year, calculated since July 2023. O Corinthians disagrees with the value and appealed to the Arbitral Court of Sport (CAS), but there has not yet been a resolution.
If Atlético-MG is willing to take over this debt and submit an attractive financial proposal, the Corinthians You should not object to the sale of Fausto Vera. The directorship of the São Paulo club is waiting for the next market movements, since the transfer window opens on July 10. With a contract by the end of 2026, Fausto Vera still has a long bond with Timão, but the financial situation and sports performance can accelerate his departure.
The interest of Atlético-MG in Fausto Vera demonstrates the search for the mining club for quality reinforcements for the season. The expectation is that negotiations will intensify in the coming weeks, and the fans of the Corinthians They look forward to the outcome of this possible transfer.
