## Background

Internacional started 2024 by extending coach Eduardo Coudet's contract (as well as his coaching staff) for another year, given the team's relative success under the Argentinian after reaching the Copa Libertadores semifinals and ending the Brasileirão Série A with a positive note. Moreover, fans were really excited by the prospect of battling for important titles once more after a frustrating year in 2023, emboldened by president Alessandro Barcelos' promises of building a stronger team this season.
As the squad managed returned for the pre-season, the squad was greeted by the arrival of new signings such as defenders Robert Renan and Alexandro Bernabei, striker Lucas Alario, wingers Wesley and Hyoran and goalkeeper Ivan Quaresma, as well as the club exercising the buying option for defensive midfielder Rômulo. These would be strengthened by the arrivals of veteran Fernando Reges, midfielder Thiago Maia and striker Rafael Santos Borré, a transfer very celebrated by fans, later in the first months of the year.
Additionally, the club managed to move players like goalkeeper Keiller, wingers David, Jean Dias and Pedro Henrique, striker Luiz Adriano, defender Nico Hernández, among other first-team members that would not be getting further chances in 2024.
