Already thinking about assembling the cast for the next season, the Corinthians negotiates the signing of the left-back, Hugowhich belongs to the Goiás and has stood out during the current edition of the Brasileirão. Despite this, the defender only has a contract until the end of 2023, which allows him to join Timão for free next season.
Even though he had good performances throughout the year, it was against São Paulo what Hugo gained notable prominence, as he scored a beautiful goal, with a first-time hit, in the 2-0 victory over Tricolor. In 2023 there will already be 41 matches played with the Esmeraldino shirt.

The left-back position has been discussed at Corinthians throughout the season. Despite hiring Matheus Bidu At the beginning of the year, the young man was unable to establish himself, and the team continues with Fábio Santos, 38 years old, as a starter in most games. Failures and irregularity of the two players are a reason for protest from the club’s fans and sector members.
Even with the information about the negotiation, Corinthians should not comment on any behind-the-scenes issue until they guarantee their permanence in Series A next year, something that is underway. Furthermore, the proximity of the presidential elections, which take place on November 25th, also motivates the choice.
Likewise, Goiás should not be part of this negotiation either, as it does not intend to open negotiations for a renewal with the player. Therefore, any statement from the club would be unnecessary, as Hugo has been able to sign a pre-contract with any team since last July.
