Gremio denied negotiation with midfielder Bitello, who currently plays for Dinamo Moscou, Russia. The information is that the player was offered to the club recently within a project that sought to make his return to Brazilian football viable, but the possibility was discarded by the Gremio direction. The main barrier is financial, as Gremio would need to pay around 16 million euros to take the player from Dinamo Moscou. Additionally, the player's situation in Russia does not favor a negotiation, as Bitello is a regular starter and had his contract renewed recently. The player maintains identification with Gremio and his return is well seen by the fans. However, there is no concrete movement for this to happen. While the market continues to move behind the scenes, three players will return to CT Luiz Carvalho before the rest of the team. The defenders Luís Eduardo and Gustavo Martins, as well as the lateral Marlon, will start physical recovery work this week. The three are in the process of returning after injuries and will have an early presentation in relation to the main group, which will return to training on June 17. The case that draws the most attention is that of Marlon. The lateral suffered a serious exposed fracture during the match against Vitória, but was already showing progress before the end of the holiday period. In the last few weeks, he was seen walking normally on the CT grass, a positive sign within the recovery process. The medical department's expectation is to take advantage of the period without games to accelerate the evolution of the players and bring them closer to a return to activities with the ball. Another issue that gained attention in the last few days involves the right-back William. The player used his social media to deny that he had communicated with the Gremio direction to leave the club. The statement came after information was released in the last few days that the player was unhappy with the repercussions of an audio attributed to agent Celso Rigo, which had criticisms of some experienced players in the squad, including William and Marcos Rocha. In an Instagram post, the lateral stated that he had never sought to leave the club and guaranteed that he would continue to play for Gremio as long as he had a contract. "I have a contract with Gremio until December and I will continue to play for the club until the end of the contract or until the club decides otherwise", he wrote. Despite the statement, William's situation continues to be monitored internally. The lateral has a reduced participation in the season, has played few minutes, and has not been a starter in any match.
