Cruzeiro's transfer window has been more agitated than expected, with seven players arriving at the Toca. The club had hoped for a less eventful transfer window, but injuries and sales have forced them to act. Globo Esporte Futebol reports that Pec was injured in the first game, and Viña was the last player to be announced.

Of the five players who arrived after Pec, two have less space in the team, while the other three are trying to establish themselves among the starters. The club has invested heavily in the transfer market, with Gabriel Pec costing approximately R$ 63 million. The club has also invested in the purchase of Gabriel Rojas (R$ 30 million) and Zé Lucas (R$ 26 million), as well as João Costa, who was loaned from Al Ettifaq for approximately R$ 5 million.

The players who have been most used since their arrival are Gabriel Rojas, Wesley, and João Costa. Rojas has been a regular starter, playing in 12 of the 15 games since his arrival. However, the starting lineup has been divided between Rojas and Lucas Villalba.
