Brazilian midfielder Fernando Sobral, who has been a target for Sport for some time, could move from Coritiba, where he has not played frequently. According to information gathered by ESPN, the 31-year-old is interested in the transfer. The player's rights belong to Cuiabá, and a pre-existing debt that Sport owes the club complicates negotiations. Cuiabá is also seeking financial compensation to release Sobral. Despite these difficulties, Sport aims to reach an agreement before the transfer window closes on September 11. For the 2025/2026 season, Sobral has made 6 appearances in Campeonato Paranaense and 5 appearances in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €1.50m.
