Qarabag is looking to strengthen their squad with a new foreign player.

According to Offsideplus.az, citing the portal pe90minutos, the Aghdam club is interested in signing defender Marcelo Ajul from the Brazilian side Sport Recife. The Azerbaijani champions have already submitted an offer, but the initial sum did not satisfy the Brazilian club.

The 23-year-old center-back has primarily played for various local clubs in his home country throughout his career, with his only international experience being a stint at the Croatian club Dubrava Zagreb during the 2023/24 season.

Ajul’s current contract runs until the winter of 2027, and the Brazilian defender has a market value of 100,000 euros.
