According to A Bola, Sporting loaned Biel to Al Taawoun until June 2026, with no purchase option. Biel had returned in January from a six-month loan at Atlético Mineiro but was not deemed convincing. He was considered not needed at Sporting, particularly due to the arrivals of Luis Guilherme and Faye in the winter transfer window. The Saudi club, which is fifth in the SPL, announced Biel's arrival on Thursday. He had arrived in the country two days earlier.

Attacker Biel has left Atlético-MG to join Al-Taawoun in Saudi Arabia on a loan deal. The move was announced on a Thursday. Biel belongs to Sporting of Portugal and had been on loan at Atlético-MG until the end of June, but he was not in coach Jorge Sampaoli's plans for 2026. His initial loan to the Brazilian club had included a potential purchase obligation if certain contractual goals were met. Consequently, Sporting arranged a new loan for the player with Al-Taawoun.
