The club is simply waiting for Moisés Vieira to reach an agreement on the terms of his arrival for the upcoming Opening 2023 season.
After weeks of negotiations, Cruz Azul has reached a consensus with the Brazilian forward, Moises Vieira da Veiga, who, according to informed sources, is poised to join the Machine through a final transfer agreement reported by GOAL.
According to those close to the talks, the only remaining step is for both sides to finalize the player’s terms and for him to pass the medical assessment so that he can sign his contract with the Celestes. The details of these terms have not been disclosed by Vieira da Veiga’s camp.
GOAL reports that Cruz Azul is prepared to offer Vieira da Veiga a three-year contract with an option for a fourth year. The deal would value the player at around five million dollars for 80 percent of his federation rights. The Brazilian striker would become the club’s fourth signing, joining Carlos Salcedo who recently inked his deal with Cruz Azul, and with Matheus Dória and Eduardo Mudo Aguirre finalizing their arrangements.
Vieira da Veiga is 26 years old and has built his career with Concórdia of Santa Catarina, Ponte Preta in Serie B, and Fortaleza in Serie A. While with Fortaleza, he contributed to the club’s triumphs in the Copa Do Nordeste and the Cearense Championship, showcasing his potential to make an impact at a higher level.
As the negotiations progress, Cruz Azul aims to bolster its attacking options with a player who has demonstrated versatility and goal-scoring ability across Brazilian football’s different tiers. Vieira da Veiga’s arrival would add depth to the squad and potentially provide a new focal point in the attacking lineup. The team will hope his experiences in domestic competitions translate into immediate contributions in the Mexican league, where the club seeks to climb the standings and challenge for titles in the coming season.
For fans and analysts alike, the prospective transfer represents a strategic move that aligns with Cruz Azul’s broader plan to reinforce the squad with young, dynamic forwards who can grow with the club. If the medicals go smoothly and the contract details are resolved, Vieira da Veiga could soon be seen wearing the Celestes jersey and making an impact in the competition calendar ahead. The deal remains contingent on successful negotiations and medical clearance, but the key elements seem to be falling into place as anticipation builds around the new signing.
