The transfer market of the Chinese Super League is about to open, and a new batch of foreign players have entered the acquisition list of each team. Recently, according to Brazilian journalist Andre Hernan, Mineiro's main American central defender, 28-year-old Brazilian player Eder, has received an invitation from a Chinese Super League team. As a teammate of Luo Guofu, a naturalized player of the national football team, I wonder if Eder will be interested in playing in China.
Last season, América Mineiro was relegated from the Brazilian Primera and a number of players in the squad began to look for a new way out, including Eder. It is understood that although Eder has one year left on his contract with América Mineiro, the club has already allowed him to transfer, so he has received an offer from the Chinese Super League side. However, as a good centre-back, Eder is not short of a home and has also caught the attention of Vasco da Gama, as well as Saudi Arabia and Japan.
Born in 1995, Eder is 1.84m tall and is a very good centre-back with a lot of skill at his feet, even in a midfield position. Since joining América Mineiro in 2022, he has been an absolute mainstay of the team for two seasons in a row, especially helping América Mineiro qualify for the Copa Sudamericana last year, which was the highlight of his career. At present, Eder's value is estimated to be about 900,000 euros, which is equivalent to about 7 million yuan, which is basically the figure of his transfer fee, which is still very affordable for Chinese Super League teams.
At América Mineiro, Eder has been teammates with Luo Guofu for two years, and he should have heard about some things in Chinese football, which may have an impact on his future choices. In terms of strength, a defender like Eder at the main level of the Brazilian league should not be weaker than a player like Shandong Taishan defender Judson.
