Palmeiras reportedly intends to sign Valentín Gómez, according to the program Vélez a fondo. The Argentine defender, currently with Vélez Sarsfield, was initially set to join Cruzeiro, but the transfer was halted due to issues with payment guarantees and bureaucratic hurdles. Despite these complications, Palmeiras is now interested in acquiring Gómez, who has been instrumental for Vélez, leading them to a championship victory in the Liga Profesional. Gómez, a 21-year-old central defender, has also attracted interest from European clubs, including Bologna, which has shown a commitment to making an offer. With negotiations with Cruzeiro stalled, Palmeiras sees an opportunity to step in and secure the talented young player's services.
