Amid rumors of a potential departure in the mid-year transfer window, Gustavo Scarpa has stated on social media that he is happy at Atlético-MG and his family is adapted to the city. Scarpa added that he is not aware of any intention from the club to negotiate him and mentioned that he spoke with a club director who told him the opposite regarding a potential transfer. The recent rumors are linked to the approaching transfer window and the fact that Scarpa has played ten games in the Campeonato Brasileiro. This means he could play in only two more matches for the club if he were to be transferred to another Série A team. His contract with Atlético-MG is valid until the end of 2027, and he can sign a pre-contract with any other team from July of the next year.

The future of Brazilian attacking midfielder Gustavo Scarpa, 32, is undefined. Scarpa lost his place in the team after coach Eduardo Domínguez arrived and is now considered valuable in a potential transfer. Scarpa has a contract with Atletico Mineiro until the end of 2027, is adapted to Belo Horizonte and does not show interest in leaving the club at this moment. The board intends to listen to offers for Scarpa in the next transfer window. Scarpa is close to the limit of matches in the Brazilian Championship, and if he plays again in the competition, he cannot play for another Serie A club in this edition. Consequently, there is still uncertainty about Scarpa's use in Atletico's next match in the tournament. The one-cap Brazil international has a current market value that Transfermarkt estimates at €5.00m. This is the same fee for which he joined Atlético Mineiro from Nottingham Forest in January 2024. São Paulo has been linked with the player, but reports from April 2026 suggest they are financially unable to pursue a transfer.
