Vitória Moves to Finalize R$7 Million Deal for Erick as Player Decision Looms

The Bahia club raised its bid to outbid Coritiba in what would be its largest-ever transfer.

Overview

  • Vitória matched Coritiba’s proposal and stalled the rival club’s push for the forward, according to local reporting.
  • The offer was lifted to R$7 million after Coritiba tabled R$5.5 million for the player.
  • A permanent purchase would set a club record, with completion still pending and the player’s choice seen as decisive.
  • Erick is on loan from São Paulo, with his Vitória deal running through December 31, 2025.
  • He played 38 matches in 2025 with three goals and five assists and was identified as a priority renewal by coach Jair Ventura and the board.
