Diario Do Peixe has reported that Santos winger Mateus Xavier may change clubs during the summer transfer window. It is reported that Shakhtar Donetsk is interested in the 19-year-old footballer and will face competition from two well-known clubs. Mateus Xavier intends to find a club where he can receive regular playing time, as he has played only five times for the first team. This has led him to look for a new place to continue his career. Santos values the winger but cannot guarantee him a place in the starting lineup.

According to Brazilian media, Shakhtar Donetsk has a concrete interest in Mateus Xavier, a young Brazilian forward from Santos. The source reports that the Brazilian club is considering the possibility of selling the 20-year-old player to improve its financial balance. It is noted that Shakhtar has made an official offer for the player, which is for about 5 million dollars.

According to ESPN, Shakhtar Donetsk is prioritizing Mateus Xavier. The player could transfer immediately to Shakhtar if the club reaches an agreement with Santos. Sources state that Shakhtar's intention is to close a deal for at least one of the Brazilian talents before the Ukrainian transfer window closes on March 11.

Shakhtar is interested in signing Mateus Xavier, who is an 18-year-old Brazilian left winger for Santos. Representatives from the Ukrainian club met with the player's representatives this week. They indicated that the Santos youth product is their priority, although they are working on a list of four young players. There is also interest in Xavier from other European clubs, but the transfer window in their leagues is closed, which is not the case in Ukraine. His contract with Santos is valid until the end of 2028, and his current market value is €400k, according to Transfermarkt.
