Vitinho Transfer from Dynamo Kyiv to Internacional
Vitinho agreed to extend his contract with Brazilian club Internacional, where he played last season. The extension was announced on the club's social media. Despite having a contract with Dynamo Kyiv until June 2027, he utilized FIFA rules allowing foreign players to leave Ukrainian clubs without negative consequences due to the ongoing conflict. FIFA allowed Internacional to keep him for another season. Vitinho has expressed his unwillingness to return to the Ukrainian Premier League.
Vitinho, a winger from Dynamo Kyiv, is set to continue playing in the Brazilian championship for another year following his 2024/25 season with Internacional. FIFA regulations had permitted foreign players in Ukraine to unilaterally leave the Premier League and join other clubs on loan, a rule which expired on June 30. Despite this, Vitinho did not return to his Ukrainian team. Reports from the Brazilian media suggest that Internacional has received authorization from FIFA to extend his loan until June 2026. It is anticipated that FIFA will officially prolong the regulation for Ukrainian foreign players due to the ongoing war conditions after the Club World Cup. Regardless of the official decision, Vitinho is expected to remain in Brazil, benefiting from FIFA's ruling. His market value is estimated at 7.5 million euros, with his contract with Dynamo set to expire in June 2027.
Vitinho, a winger from Dynamo Kyiv, is continuing his training with the Brazilian club Internacional even though his loan agreement ended on June 30. He is getting ready for the upcoming Serie A season and has no plans to return to Ukraine. FIFA regulations allowed foreign players in Ukraine to unilaterally depart the Premier League and join another club on loan. Despite this rule's expiration on June 30, there is optimism in Brazil that FIFA will extend it in July following the Club World Cup final. Vitinho has entered into a preliminary agreement with Internacional to stay in the local championship for another year, contingent on FIFA's decision.
Vitinho, a winger for Dynamo Kyiv, is set not to return to Ukraine once his loan period concludes on June 30. Brazilian media have reported that FIFA is expected to announce an extension of the rule permitting foreign players from Ukrainian teams to play on loan for other clubs unilaterally. Initially scheduled to expire on June 30, this rule will be prolonged for at least another year. Internacional plans to capitalize on this extension to retain Vitinho at the club. The 26-year-old Brazilian reportedly does not wish to return to Ukraine either. His contract with Dynamo Kyiv is valid until June 2027. Last season, Vitinho participated in 25 matches in Brazil, scoring six goals, and his estimated market value is 7.5 million euros.
Vitinho is currently on loan at Internacional from Dynamo Kyiv. His loan agreement with the Brazilian club ends in June 2025, after which he is supposed to return to Dynamo Kyiv. However, Vitinho's wife is against returning to Ukraine due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and safety concerns. Internacional is satisfied with Vitinho's performance and is ready to buy out his contract from the Ukrainian club. The approximate cost of the player is 7.5 million euros. In the current season, Vitinho has played 22 matches in all competitions, scoring five goals.
The Brazilian club Internacional has expressed their admiration for the performance of 25-year-old winger Vitinho, whose contract is owned by Dynamo Kyiv. They are planning to extend his loan until they can acquire him as a free agent, thereby avoiding paying a transfer fee to the Ukrainian team. According to FIFA regulations concerning the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Vitinho's contract with Dynamo Kyiv is temporarily suspended for six months with each loan agreement. Should Vitinho extend his loan until the end of 2025, he could potentially remain permanently with the Brazilian club, as his contract with Dynamo Kyiv is set to expire in mid-2026. He would then be eligible to sign a preliminary contract with Internacional in January 2026, allowing him to stay in Serie A without any transfer fee.
