Wolverhampton and Crystal Palace target Wallace Yan is now on the radar of CSKA Moscow, according to reports from Brazil. The Russian club are said to be preparing a move for January, to facilitate that talks are already underway with the player’s representatives.
CSKA step up their approach
Insider outlet NetFla claim that CSKA are preparing a proposal worth €10m-€15m, betting on the player’s wish to restart his career abroad. Local sources describe the Russian interest as gaining “traction” in recent days.
CSKA believe they have a strong chance of closing the deal early in 2026. Flamengo, who once resisted selling their academy talent, are now open to negotiations after a turbulent spell for the youngster. Wallace Yan’s recent months have been marked bycontroversies and a sharp loss of form.
Flamengo set their price
The Brazilian club have recently set an asking price between €10m and €12m. That amount could reach €25m with future bonuses. Flamengo plan to retain part of the player’s economic rights, hoping to benefit from any future resale in Europe.
Inside the club, relations between Wallace Yan and the coaching staff have broken down. Repeated disciplinary issues and his limited role in recent games convinced Flamengo that selling him would be best for all sides.
English clubs stay alert
Wolves continue to monitor the situation closely. Crystal Palace, once viewed as front-runners, have shifted focus to other targets but remain informed about developments.
Wallace Yan’s contract runs until December 2027, yet the next window could finally bring his move away from Brazil. With Russia now joining the race, his future promises to be one of the more intriguing stories of the January market.
