An initial offer for Kevin Lomónaco was made by Atlético Mineiro. The proposal was for 2.4 million dollars for 75 percent of the defender's rights and also included assuming the Argentine club's 2.6 million dollar debt to Bragantino. This offer was rejected. Negotiations may now proceed differently, as the selling club faces a potential FIFA transfer ban that would prevent them from signing a replacement if Lomónaco were to depart.
