Who can still leave Fluminense?

The Brazilian Championship regulations have undergone an important change: the limit on matches a player can play before being barred from transferring to another Série A club has increased from 6 to 12 games.

Upon taking the field for the 13th time, the player is officially blocked from representing another rival in the same division during the season.
