The Dynamo transferred defender Micael dos Santos Silva to SE Palmeiras in Brazil's Serie A on Saturday for what Houston said was the largest fee in club history.
The Dynamo did not disclose the fee.
Micael, 24, made 64 appearances (59 starts) in regular season and postseason play with the Dynamo since April 2022. He scored one goal.
'We are thankful for Micael's contributions to the Dynamo and very proud of his growth over the past two and a half years in Houston. While the timing of this transfer is difficult for our group, we made a commitment to Micael that we would support him in his ambitions to play for the one of the top clubs in the world, and we wish him well in his next step,' said Pat Onstad, Houston's president of soccer.
Micael helped Houston win the 2023 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and earn a spot in the 2024 Concacaf Champions Cup.
In his native Brazil, Micael will be joining a team that has won 18 top-tier national competitions, including a record 12 Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A titles.
