São Paulo is currently in discussions to renew Alan Franco's contract, which is set to expire in December 2025. According to ESPN, there is only a minor discrepancy between the offer made by the club and the demands of the player. Renewing Franco's contract is a priority for São Paulo, as they have no intention of letting him go. On the other hand, rumors suggest that Palmeiras might attempt to acquire Franco for free at the year's end, although São Paulo has reportedly not been contacted by them. The club remains hopeful that Franco will continue with the team, given his leadership role and the attractive long-term contract offer. The proposal includes a three to four-year extension, designed to spread payments over the course of the contract. Franco, a 28-year-old Argentine, has been a crucial player for São Paulo, appearing in 20 matches this season and serving as a defensive leader under coach Luis Zubeldía. The club expresses optimism about reaching an agreement without significant challenges.
