Maccabi Haifa Pursues Brazilian Striker Mikal Amid Competitive Transfer Market
Maccabi Haifa is actively pursuing Brazilian striker Mikal as part of its preparations for the 2026/27 season. Mikal, 27, currently plays for CRB in Brazil's second division and is considered one of the hottest talents in Brazilian football. Last season, he scored 20 goals in 28 appearances across all competitions, including 14 goals in the second division league.
CRB has set a transfer price of 2 million euros for Mikal, but so far no club has met this valuation. Several offers around 1.3 million euros have been rejected. Interested clubs include Brazilian top-tier teams São Paulo, Grêmio, Red Bull Bragantino, Vitória, and others from both Brazil's first and second divisions. Additionally, international clubs such as Maccabi Haifa have expressed interest in the striker.
The competition for Mikal's signature is intense, and Maccabi Haifa is among the clubs monitoring the situation closely as they seek to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the upcoming season.
