Why Brazilian Players Still Join Shakhtar

Shakhtar Donetsk, the Ukrainian football club, continues to attract a large number of Brazilian players despite the ongoing war and unstable security conditions experienced by the team outside Ukraine for over a decade. Its current roster includes 15 players from Brazil, a record in its history, as the club maintains long-term investments in the Brazilian talent market, offering players early opportunities to participate in European competitions and higher salaries compared to their counterparts in Brazil. This model is both an investment and sporting strategy, as the club develops players and then sells them for financial profit. It relies on a scouting network and longstanding relationships with clubs and agents in Brazil. Participation of these players in European competitions, especially the Champions League, helps attract talent and generate financial returns, despite the ongoing impact of the war on players’ lives and their mobility.
