Bayern Munich scouts observed Cruzeiro's Eduardo Pape at the UEFA Friendship Cup 2026 in Nyon, Switzerland, between late September and October, an event also attended by scouts from other clubs. The player's international release clause is set at €100 million, though it is expected that an offer of €30 million would be one his club would be unable to refuse. Proposals are anticipated in the coming months, and some clubs have already indicated they might make offers for amounts lower than that figure.
