Vozinha in Advanced Talks With Inter Miami After World Cup Run

The 40-year-old free agent would join Lionel Messi at Inter Miami, a move that could sharply raise his commercial profile.

Overview

  • Vozinha became a global name at the 2026 World Cup after key saves that helped Cabo Verde reach the round of 16 for the first time.
  • His contract with Portuguese club Chaves expired during the tournament, leaving the captain free to sign with any club.
  • Spanish and Portuguese outlets reported that Inter Miami opened advanced negotiations to sign Vozinha, with those reports published in the days after Cabo Verde’s elimination.
  • Other clubs in Brazil, including a proposal from Feira FC and offers reportedly placed to Ceará and Atlético-GO, have shown interest but have not begun formal talks.
  • Vozinha’s social following surged to about 28.3–28.4 million on Instagram, turning him into a major commercial asset and creating an unusual late-career opportunity that remains unconfirmed until a club announces a contract.
