Léo Ortiz played for almost six years at Bragantino
|
Léo Ortiz was officially announced by Flamengo this Wednesday (06). On the same day, the defender published an emotional farewell to Red Bull Bragantino, the club he defended from 2019 until 2024. The athlete did not hide his gratitude to the São Paulo team, highlighting that he received the opportunity when “few people believed” and managed to reach the Seleção Brazilian.
“When few people believed in me, you called me (…). When we had our first international challenge, we went to the South American final. When the Brazilian team seemed distant for a player from a country club, it was wearing this shirt that I was called up. It was with this shirt that I defended, fought, fought, left everything on the field!”, said Léo Ortiz, in an excerpt published on social media.
In fact, Bragantino changed Léo Ortiz's level. The gaucho, revealed at Internacional, had spells at Sport and Red Bull Brasil, in consecutive loans in 2018 and 2019. However, at Red Bull Bragantino, the defender had success for the first time in his career, as an absolute starter and, in recent years, he won the captain's armband.
In addition, at the club, Léo Ortiz reached the Brazilian team, led by Tite, with the right to be called up for the Copa América 2021. The coach, in fact, was responsible for asking the signing of the defender for Flamengo. In this way, Rubro-Negro spared no effort and invested 7 million euros (R$ 37 million) plus 1 million euros (R$ 5 million) in bonuses.
Like Rubro-negro, Martial suffered from injuries in 2023/24

Mais Querido used the midfielder’s negotiation as revenge for Léo Ortiz
|
The transfer window has come to an end and Flamengowill remain with Matheus Gonçalves until next year. The young midfielder aroused interest from Rio Ave (POR) and Bragantino, a team he was loaned to last season. However, the operations did not continue due to different impasses, and the athlete's will prevailed.
O Flamengo managed to drag out negotiations with Bragantino. The Bragança Paulista team offered a value of 6 million euros (R$ 37.3 million), a value that Rubro-Negro considered acceptable by 50% and not by 70% as the São Paulo team wanted. The parties continued negotiating but, with other investments in the window, the Bragança club reached its budget limit and the ceiling of only 3 million euros (R$ 18.6 million).
VALUES PRESENTED< /b>Thus, according to information from GE, two business models were discussed based on this value: the purchase of 70% of economic rights or the loan with an obligation to purchase after meeting targets. Highlighting that in this second, Mais Querido would receive the 3 million euros and another 4 million euros (R$ 24.8 million) from next season, conditional on meeting goals.
< b>"EXCHANGE" FOR LÉO ORTIZHowever, one factor weighed on Flamengo's decision. This is because Rubro-Negro wanted to get back at Bragantino for making negotiations for Léo Ortiz difficult. Therefore, Mais Querido did not release the midfielder to the São Paulo team.
Matheus Gonçalves even received an offer from Rio Ave (POR), and Flamengo accepted it. However, the young man did not want to go to the Portuguese club and will remain at Mais Querido until the next transfer window.
