Flamengo protects itself in the market and promises a tough game when players leave

CONCRETE PROPOSAL AND SOME SPECULATIONS

Rubro-Negro has a proposal of around 9 million euros (R$52.1 million) from Aston Vila for Emerson Royal. The right-back, however, has grown in production this season and Flamengo is only considering selling him if a suitable replacement appears, something that has not happened so far. The scarcity of full-backs on the market weighs in favor of the player remaining.

Another name that has been widely speculated in recent days is Léo Pereira, who was with the Brazilian team at the World Cup, despite not having played. UOL found that the club knows that offers will come, but no official proposal has arrived for the defender, who is considered a fundamental part of the team and who will only leave if it is for "a lot of money".

Flamengo also turned down a proposal from Grupo City for defender João Victor. The initial information was given by "ge" and confirmed by UOL. The 19-year-old has been monitored for some time in the European market and has a history with the Brazilian youth teams. Precisely for this reason, the red and black board understands that he is an important asset. In the three friendlies held in July, in Portugal, he was a starter with coach Leonardo Jardim and won points with the coach.

CEBOLINHA ONLY LEAVES WITH PAYMENT OF A FINE

Flamengo has played hard even with those who want to leave, such as striker Everton Cebolinha. Just as he had done last year, the player declared again that he intends to change things up. The statement was given after the victory over Benfica, in the friendly in the Algarve, on the 11th.

As I said before, cycles end. I was very happy here, but I need a new lease of life. It's almost five years. I was very happy, I loved playing for Flamengo, I made my dream come true, I didn't think twice Everton Cebolinha

Even with the striker making it clear that he does not want to renew, Flamengo only agrees to release him before the end of the contract upon payment of a fine. Some Brazilian clubs showed interest in the player.

EXITS ONLY FOR THOSE WHO DON'T INTEREST

So far, the only people who have left are those who are out of the plans, such as striker Carlinhos, 29 years old, who was loaned to Athletic until the end of the season, precisely when his contract with Flamengo ends. Before the Minas Gerais club, he had already been loaned to Vitória and Remo.

Other players are still in the evaluation phase, especially young ones, like Lorran. He returned from loan from Pisa, in Italy, and, at first, would not be used. However, he traveled with the delegation for the friendly period in Portugal and was well evaluated.
