Internacional confirms the signing of Enner Valencia

After months of waiting, the International finally announced and confirmed the hiring of Enner Valencia. This Monday, the 12th, Colorado made the agreement with the Ecuadorian top scorer official, with a bond signed until June 2026. In honor of the striker, Beira-Rio had the lights on in the colors of the flag of Ecuador.

The agreement has existed since February, when Alessandro Barcellospresident of Internacional, traveled to Europe and closed the hiring of Charles Aranguiz also. However, at the request of Valencia, the agreement was not confirmed by the club from Rio Grande do Sul due to the relationship that the striker had with the Fenerbahçe.

However, internally this was a matter that was already taken for granted, despite the Turks’ willingness to renew the striker’s contract. The gauchos already had everything lined up with Valencia and the agreement was practically signed, it only took the end of the European season for the announcement to take place the way the player wanted.

Despite the announcement, Valencia’s contract with Fenerbahçe ends on June 30th. However, as the team played its last match of the season last Saturday, the 10th, when it won the Turkish Cupagainst Basaksehir, Colorado decided to anticipate the officialization. At the Turkish club, the Ecuadorian was coached by formerFlamengo Jorge Jesus.

The number 13 will arrive in Brazil living the best phase of his career. In addition to swinging the net three times in the world Cup, the Ecuadorian played 51 games, scored 33 goals and distributed seven assists for Fenerbahçe. Despite the announcement, the striker will only be able to play for Inter officially after July 3, due to the opening of the transfer window.
