Given Flamengo's recent difficulties in signing a new number 9, a speculated name has resurfaced among fans: Gabriel Jesus . The Brazilian national team striker, currently at Arsenal in England, has reportedly been placed on the London club's transfer list for the next transfer window.


The asking price is around £30 million (approximately R$191 million at the current exchange rate) . The push for attacking reinforcements gained momentum after rejections from players like Lucas Beltrán and Mehdi Taremi, who opted to remain in European football.


ASTRONOMICAL MARKET VALUE AND WAGES


Despite being one of the most mentioned names by fans on social media and specialized forums, Gabriel Jesus' arrival in Brazilian football is considered extremely unlikely at this time. Arsenal's proposed fee is far above the financial reality of South American football, even for a club with significant investment power like Flamengo .

In addition to the high transfer fee required, the player's current salary—comparable to Premier League standards—would pose an even greater challenge. The English club, seeking to balance its finances and make room for reinforcements in other positions, sees the Brazilian striker as one of its main bargaining chips in the next window.


FLAMENGO REMAINS ON THE MARKET

Flamengo 's board continues to monitor the market for a center forward who fits the profile desired by Filipe Luís's coaching staff. After frustrations in negotiations with players who opted to remain on the Old Continent, the club is seeking viable alternatives that can strengthen the squad without compromising its financial planning.
