At the beginning of this 2023, a large number of internationally renowned names were heard as possible reinforcements for Sporting Cristal. Although not all of them expressed their interest in joining the celestial team, midfielder Giva Santos mentioned that he was waiting for an official proposal from the club.
"I really want to go, I'm just waiting for a proposal," said the footballer in a conversation with communicator Minoru Ramos through Instagram.
However, everything seems to indicate that the negotiations never took place for the midfielder, who can play as a pivot or central defender. In this way, Giva ended up signing for Avaí, former team of the Peruvian Paolo Guerrero, to play in the Série B this year.
How is Giva doing so far in 2023?
Since arriving at Avaí, Giva has become an indispensable figure for the Brazilian team. In that sense, he has already played 15 official matches with his new squad, and has scored two goals.
How much is Giva Santos' transfer fee?
The highest value that Giva Santos' transfer fee has had throughout his professional career is 200,000 euros, according to the international portal Transfermarkt. Nevertheless, it should be noted that this figure is an approximation and should not be taken as a fixed number.
