According to Mundo Deportivo, Kaiky, 23, currently plays for Cruzeiro. Flamengo, Real Betis, and Barcelona are all interested in him, and Ancelotti has arranged for him to make his debut for the Brazilian senior national team.
The report states that Barcelona has already completed a major signing in the 2026 summer transfer market by signing Gordon. Before the officialization of the club's financial fair play procedures, new player names have continued to be linked with Barcelona's transfer intentions. The latest candidate is 23-year-old Brazilian left-back Kaiky Bruno, who belongs to Cruzeiro and has long been a transfer target for Real Betis and Flamengo.
It is understood that Cruzeiro has priced the defender at nearly 15 million euros. Previously, Italian team Como made an offer for the player, but it was rejected by Cruzeiro.
Kaiky won the South American Youth Championship with the Brazilian U20 national team and was also selected for the Brazilian Olympic team. He has now made his debut for the Brazilian senior national team, with Brazil national team coach Ancelotti fielding him in a friendly match in March to complete his national team debut.
The player's current contract is valid until December 2027, and Cruzeiro's initial transfer offer threshold is approximately 15 million euros.
Although Barcelona is now rumored to be interested in acquiring this player, Flamengo is currently the most active in the transfer battle, and Real Betis has also been closely monitoring the player's movements.
