Bruninho has completed a permanent transfer to "Karpaty" Lviv after the Ukrainian club exercised their option to buy the 25-year-old attacking midfielder from Brazilian side "Atletico Mineiro".

"The deal has been finalized," – reported journalist Fred Augusto, who confirmed the transfer fee is approximately €800,000.

The Brazilian playmaker initially joined the green-whites on loan for the 2024/25 season but impressed enough to convince the Lviv club to secure his services on a permanent basis. Atletico Mineiro reportedly had no future plans for the midfielder, making the transfer beneficial for all parties involved.

Bruninho's impact at "Karpaty" has been significant. He emerged as one of the standout performers not just for his club but across the entire Ukrainian Premier League this season. The numbers speak for themselves – 8 goals and 3 assists in 24 championship appearances.

Interestingly, the Brazilian source described Ukraine's top flight as a "weak league," though that didn't stop Bruninho from showcasing his talents and proving his worth on the pitch.

The transfer represents a solid piece of business for "Karpaty" as they look to build on their squad for future campaigns. Will Bruninho continue his impressive form now that he's secured a permanent move? The Lviv faithful certainly hope so.
