Corinthians expressed their interest in Mateo Sanabria by making an initial inquiry about the 21-year-old Argentine forward. However, they decided not to pursue the matter further due to the high transfer fees involved. Sanabria, who has recently played for Al Ain in the UAE and took part in the Club World Cup, is also attracting interest from Bahia. The club is in negotiations to purchase the player but is being careful to avoid a bidding war that could escalate costs, particularly since Sanabria's recent performances have increased interest in him. The player, who also possesses an Italian passport, is under contract with Al Ain until June 30, 2028, and his market value is currently estimated by Transfermarkt to be €600k.
