On Sunday (23), the player luan reached an agreement with Corinthians to terminate the contract. With an interest in returning to Grêmio, the player is waiting for the formalization of a proposal to return to the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

Impasse for hiring

In the last week, Grêmio showed interest in hiring Luan, but due to the situation with Luis Suarez, the club from Rio Grande do Sul withdrew from hiring. The player has a contract with Corinthians until December 2024, and did not want to terminate the contract so as not to give up his rights with the alvinegro team, which was also an impasse for Grêmio to hire the player.

Corinthians has been trying to terminate Luan’s contract since the beginning of the year, but the player wouldn’t accept it. Now, for having the opportunity to return to his former club, Luan has reached an agreement with Corinthians.

Luan was bought by Corinthians for 29 million reais and arrived in early 2020 to fulfill a childhood dream. But his passage was not very positive: in 78 games, there were only nine goals scored. The player has not entered the field with Corinthians since February 2022. He was loaned to Santos where, in eight games, he scored a goal.

At Grêmio, he spent five years, where he scored 75 goals in 288 games. He was champion of the Copa do Brasil in 2016 and Libertadores in 2017, and was considered the main player of the competition, elected as King of America at the end of that year. The tricolor crowd has affection for the player, who expect his return on the team.

At the beginning of July, Luan was in a motel when I was surprised by members of one of the Corinthians supporters. The aggression was what triggered the desire to leave the club for good, but he still didn’t want to give up the values ​​he has to receive from the team.

Grêmio will receive Flamengo at the Arena for the first leg of the Copa do Brasil and, if everything happens within the expected period, the player Luan will be present at the stadium for his return to the team.
