The contract of Felipe Gedoz with Belgium side Club Brugge ends this December, but there’s an automatic renewal clause that needs to be broken, but would cost Santos €1.2 million.
Santos have all the details of the possible signing of attacking midfielder Felipe Gedoz, but a request from Club Brugge could disrupt the negotiation. The 23-year-old has a contract with the Belgium side until the end of this year, but there’s a clause that provides automatic renewal for another season. Therefore, in order to have the player already in January, Santos must pay €1.2 million. The idea of ​​Santos was to close a four-year contract with Felipe Gedoz, but the request of Club Brugge is jamming the deal. According to the information from Globo Esporte, the arrival of the player is no longer seen with such certainty at Vila Belmiro. Santos president Modesto Roma Júnior was not willing to open the coffers, at least for now, to strengthen the cast, as the financial situation is not the best. Recently, Gedoz was in the sights of Atlético Mineiro, but the business did not evolve. The department of analysis and statistics of Santos positively evaluated the arrival of Gedoz to the team led by coach Dorival Júnior. Felipe Gedoz fits into the player’s profile wanted by Santos for next season. The player, who can act on all three attacking positions, came through Juventude, but stood out for Uruguayan team Defensor during the 2014 Copa Libertadores. After that, he was signed by Club Brugge and was not released to return to Brazil. In addition to attackers and midfielders, Santos wants to sign at least one defender and a right-back that plays on both sides. Santos already have a deal with Vladimir Hernández and Júnior Barranquilla; the pair arrives in January to sign five-year contracts.
