Como is reportedly one of several clubs interested in PSV's 27-year-old Brazilian left-back, Mauro Júnior. FC Porto and Real Betis have also been linked with the player. Mauro Júnior may be available for a comparatively low fee due to a clause in his contract. Reports from May 2026 suggested an offer of €15 million would be anticipated to secure a transfer, while his release clause was said to be €18 million or lower. He has been with PSV since January 2018 and his current contract expires in 2029, although the club is expected to offer him a new deal. According to Transfermarkt, the former Brazil U23 international has a current market value of €18.00m. Como has qualified for the Champions League for the first time in its history, and Betis, another interested club, will also be in the competition next season.
