Internacional announced the signing of midfielder Alan Rodríguez on July 30, 2025, committing to a 4 million dollar transfer fee. Meanwhile, Flamengo expressed dissatisfaction with Internacional's new player acquisitions, pointing out their outstanding financial obligations, particularly an unpaid debt of 1.25 million euros from the 2024 transfer of Thiago Maia. Flamengo has lodged a complaint with the Comissão Nacional de Resolução de Disputas (CNRD) about this debt, with a hearing scheduled for September 6, 2025. The unresolved debt could result in a Transfer Ban for Internacional if not resolved, as Flamengo has urged the CBF to enforce financial regulations.
