Flamengo started the season in terrible form, losing all the titles they competed for and currently eight points behind the leader of the Brasileirão, Botafogo RJ. Because of this, coach Vitor Pereira was fired in April to make way for the experienced Jorge Sampaoli.


Since Sampaoli's arrival, Flamengo has carried out a revolution in its squad, which has the dual motivation of rejuvenating the team and reinforcing it. in terms of quality. In this sense, Augustín Rossi, Luiz Araújo and Allan have already been closed, which is practically certain.


As has often been reported, Flamengo's main target in this market is Nicolás de la Cruz, however, the ambitions in the market do not end this way. Flamengo is monitoring several players for different positions, with the priorities now being: strengthening the midfield, defense and flanks.


The transfer window is short, being only open from the 3rd of July to the 4th of August, so all of Flamengo's movements will have to be precise if they really want to reinforce themselves beyond the players already closed.

Still unsure whether they will have Lucas Paquetá until the end of the season , West Ham won their first victory in the Premier League this Sunday (31) . In the third round of the competition, the team beat Nottingham Forest away from home 3-0, in a match marked by efficiency in the final minutes.


OPPONENT DOMINATION, WEST HAM EFFICIENCY


Despite the heavy score, West Ham struggled again. Controlled by Nottingham Forest for much of the match, the London team benefited from their rival's inability to finish plays . When they had the opportunity, they were decisive.


All three goals came in the final six minutes. Bowen opened the scoring, and the home side completely lost their way. Lucas Paquetá then doubled the lead with a penalty , and Callum Wilson sealed the victory, securing the Hammers' first win of the season.

PAQUETÁ MARKS AND SENDS A MESSAGE IN THE CELEBRATION


During the celebration, Paquetá made a gesture of connection with his hand and then feigned a refusal. He then kissed the West Ham crest. This gesture was interpreted as a response to rumors of a possible transfer to Aston Villa , a club that had expressed interest in the Brazilian.

HOW MUCH WILL FLAMENGO PROFIT FROM THE SALE?

Having nurtured the player in its youth academy, Flamengo is entitled to approximately 4% of the total value of each international transfer for Paquetá . Based on the £47 million offer, the Rio de Janeiro club stands to receive approximately £1.88 million (R$13.8 million) at the current exchange rate.
