Shakhtar Donetsk made a loan offer for Goias defender Diego Kaito. According to Globo Esports, Shakhtar plans to loan the player for half a year with an option to buy after the end of the 2025/26 season. Negotiations between the clubs have not progressed, as Goias is only willing to agree to a full transfer for Diego Kaito.

Diego Caito, a 21-year-old Brazilian right-back from Goiás, may move to the Ukrainian Premier League. Shakhtar Donetsk is interested in him as a replacement for Yefim Konoplya, who did not extend his contract with the club. Last year, the Ukrainian club made an initial transfer offer that was rejected because Goiás did not intend to release the player at that time. Shakhtar now intends to submit a second, improved offer, and the Goiás sports council will then announce its final decision. Diego Caito's contract with Goiás is set to expire in December 2026, and his transfer value is €800,000, according to Transfermarkt. Caito joined Goiás in January 2024 and has made 3 appearances and scored 1 goal in the current Campeonato Goiano season.
