Pafos FC, in Cyprus, seized an opportunity to talk directly with Cruzeiro to set up a loan deal for Matheus Davó with an option to buy in a quickfire TransferRoom Summit meeting.
We always start some deals here. On the platform we will send messages and we have the Pitch feature. Then, at the TransferRoom Summit, we can understand if the deal is realistic or not.
Doing transfer business quickly and directly
Time is precious for recruitment teams in a transfer window. Wasting weeks and months on drawn-out negotiations and trying to get a breakthrough in a deal can have a big impact on their transfer plans.
That's why a network of top executives at clubs use TransferRoom Summits to do business fast.
Decision makers hold a series of 15-minute one-to-one meetings with their counterparts from other clubs around the world in one place, where they can accelerate their transfer business and talk directly and openly about their market needs.
That approach paid off for Pafos FC and their Head of Scouting, Bolívar Silveira.
He used the TransferRoom Summit at Chelsea FC's Stamford Bridge in London to kickstart negotiations with Trusted Agency Elenko Sports for Cruzeiro forward Matheus Davó.
"We know Elenko and the player very well, but we never spoke about it," Silveira said in the video below.
"Then in London, we had the opportunity to put the deal on the table, and that's how everything started.
"We used this opportunity to talk business in 15 minutes."
Silveira was speaking at the following TransferRoom Summit in São Paulo, Brazil, which he was hopeful would bring more business with the Summer Transfer Window in full swing.
"We always start some deals here. On the platform we will send messages and we have the Pitch feature.
"Then (at the Summit) we can understand if the deal is realistic or not. I hope this Summit will bring a new player for Pafos FC."
