Carlos Miguel, the custodian, is expected to be sold by Nottingham Forest far more quickly than anticipated, and his transfer to Palmeiras is now only a question of time. According to Brazilian publication iG, the São Paulo team had already expressed interest in the 26-year-old, and since then, things have proceeded swiftly.
Globo Esporte-supported UOL journalist Danilo Lavieri now claims that a verbal agreement has been reached. Carlos Miguel signed a five-year contract with Palmeiras, which is estimated to pay him about €4 million plus bonuses. Journalist André Hernan adds that only the medicals and signature are missing, so the player is expected to fly to Brazil this week. It’s a bit of a plot twist, given that not long ago he was talking about staying in Europe. That suggests Palmeiras came in with a strong pitch – big wages, guaranteed starts, or maybe both.
