In the summer, Shakhtar received a concrete offer to sell 19-year-old Brazilian right winger Alisson to the English Premier League for 32 million euros plus 3 million euros in bonuses. The journalist Jorge Nicola reported this, but did not name the club making the offer. Shakhtar refused, believing Alisson would become a key player and be worth more in the future, especially if they return to the Champions League. His contract with the Ukrainian club runs until the end of 2029, and his market value is currently estimated by Transfermarkt to be €9 million.
