According to Globo.com, Corinthians is interested in signing Rony from Atlético-MG. The player is being monitored by Corinthians, and coach Dorival Júnior is pleased with him, but there are no negotiations in progress. The primary obstacle is financial, as Corinthians has prioritized loan signings because of a lack of funds, whereas Atlético-MG would only consider a sale, with an asking price of R$ 25 million. Additionally, Rony's salary is high for the standard Corinthians aims to implement as part of its effort to reduce the wage bill. A mentioned possibility is to include the debt that Atlético-MG owes Corinthians for Fausto Vera's signing, but this amount is less than Rony's asking price.
