Thalys was very close to being transferred to Olympiacos, but Almería gained preference in the last week by offering similar values and the advantage of the Spanish football market.

Sport FM reports on the transfer decision of Thalys, a promising young talent from Palmeiras, who was at the center of a bidding war between Olympiacos and Almeria. Thalys, a 20-year-old player from Palmeiras, was initially close to joining Olympiacos. However, Almeria intervened at the last moment and made the same offer as Olympiacos: 7 million euros for 70% of his rights, keeping 30%. Thalys chose to move to Almeria, seeing it as the best decision for his career, rejecting Olympiacos.

Olympiacos is negotiating the transfer of Thalys from Palmeiras for 6.5 million euros, with Palmeiras retaining 25% of a future sale. The transfer is expected to be completed soon, but if negotiations don't succeed, Thalys will remain at Palmeiras, as the club does not intend to make further sales this season.
