Internacional surprised in the ball market and forwarded the hiring of a player who has a guaranteed presence in the Uruguay national team
O International is looking for reinforcements in the football market. The team from Rio Grande do Sul wants punctual players for the squad of Mano Menezes and approached the arrival of a name that was not expected in Beira-Rio. That’s because Colorado was close to closing the hiring of Sergio Rochetwho currently defends the colors of the National, from Uruguay. The goalkeeper is a starter for the Uruguay national team and faced Inter during the group stage of the liberators.
According to the website “Globo Esporte”, Internacional should close the negotiation on the ball market for a value of 7.8 million reais. This amount will correspond to 70% of the economic rights of the 30-year-old goalkeeper. The Uruguayan will even sign a contract valid for four seasons and will arrive at Beira-Rio to compete with John, who is going through a great phase in Porto Alegre.
It is worth noting that the arrival of Sergio Rochet takes many fans by surprise, as the current goalkeeper in Rio Grande do Sul is going through an important moment in 2023 and is looking to establish himself at Internacional. However, according to “Globo Esporte”, there is an understanding that the Uruguayan will be able to bring more experience to the squad of Mano Menezes and would also give John a dispute for the title.
It is important to remember that Rochet is in the final stretch of his bond with Nacional. That is, he can already sign a pre-contract with any other club. Out of necessity, Internacional tries to convince the Uruguayans to release the athlete before that period with financial compensation. Therefore, the tendency is for there to be a quick hit, as Inter’s rival in Libertadores wants to profit from the goalkeeper’s departure.
Rochet is a prominent name in Uruguay. The goalkeeper is even the holder of Marcelo Bielsa’s selection. On the last date-Fifa, in the 2-0 victory against Cuba, the archer played the full 90 minutes. In addition, she knows very well the environment she will find at Internacional, since in 2023 she faced Colorado in the Libertadores group stage.
