Guilherme Arana, Atlético standout, was approached by Corinthians during the last transfer window. After the 0-0 draw with Cruzeiro, on Saturday night (18), in Orlando, Florida, the player opened up about his former club’s search.
Arana stated that Corinthians spoke with the athletic board during the vacation period, but the São Paulo team did not formalize a proposal.
“There was a survey, but it never got to the point where I could decide yes or no. I think the people at Corinthians asked about my situation here at Atlético. But it never got to the point where they asked if I wanted to stay or leave. That never arrived. Surveys took place,” said Arana.
Arana is one of the big names in Atlético’s squad. The left-back arrived at the Minas Gerais club in 2020, signed from Sevilla-ESP. The left-back’s first contract with Atlético was until November 2021.
Brazilian champion, the Brazilian Cup, the State Cup and the Brazilian Super Cup, with Alvinegro, and the Olympic Games with the Seleção, the 27-year-old player gained value and became an important asset for the club.
Guilherme Arana has a contract with Atlético until the end of 2027. The board considers the full-back an important part of the squad and does not plan to trade him.
