Bruno Fuchs, the CSKA Moscow defender on loan to Atlético Mineiro, continues his spell with the Brazilian club. The arrangement includes an automatic option to buy, which will be triggered if the stated conditions come into effect. This was confirmed by Kirill Breido, CSKA Moscow’s communications director, in a message published on the club’s Telegram channel. Fuchs has spent the past season and a half with Atlético Mineiro, where his consistent minutes and performances have attracted attention from fans and executives alike, and the move underscores the club’s willingness to evaluate a long term future for him within their squad.
Atlético Mineiro is aware that the conditions for activating the option are met and has told CSKA that a purchase will be made. The transition can be considered completed, but official confirmation could come only on January 11, 2025, according to Breido’s note on Telegram.
Transfermarkt values Fuchs at around 1.8 million euros, a figure that reflects his age, his versatility as a defender, and his experience in both European and South American football environments.
Fuchs joined CSKA Moscow in August 2020, signing a five-year contract that tied him to the club through 2025 and positioned him as a key figure backed by the team’s plans in defense and squad rotation.
In the Russian Premier League, CSKA currently sit fourth with 24 points. Fakel lie 14th with 11 points, while Krasnodar lead the standings on 30 points, Zenit Saint Petersburg are in second with 29, and Lokomotiv Moscow is third with 27, creating a tight top-half battle this season.
Igor Akinfeev remains a legendary presence in CSKA’s history, having built a long and storied record with the club across years as a dependable goalkeeper and captain, shaping the team’s identity and achievements.
