For fans who wanted the Wesley side out of Flamengo, the news is not good. This is because the player remains in the red and black. With advanced negotiations with Atalanta (ITA), the Italian club backed down and will not continue negotiations to sign the athlete. Therefore, the full-back will remain with the Rio team until the end of the year.
According to journalist Venê Casagrande, Atalanta informed Flamengo who doesn't want Wesley anymore. The club waited for official documentation from Rubro-Negro to seal the transfer, but the 'paperwork' arrived hours late. In the text sent by Fla's board, there was a clause stating that the full-back would only travel on Monday (26), a fact that outraged the Italians.
Atalanta is in a hurry for the following reason: arriving in Europe only next week, Wesley still has to undergo medical examinations. Therefore, if he does not receive the 'ok', the Italian club would not have time to hire another athlete for the position. In this way, the team is already looking for other athletes to fill the gap.
Flamengo had already given the 'ok' to Atalanta , and Wesley had already accepted the salary offer. In total, the transaction could reach up to 20 million euros (R$ 120 million at current prices). On Sunday (18), after the clash with Botafogo, the vice-president of red-black football, Marcos Braz, practically confirmed the full-back's departure.
— He is very advanced, even considering the size of the figures , which I won't bring here, but is very advanced. If it happens in the way it is designed, it is a very important sale for Flamengo and it is impossible to hold the player in terms of the numbers that are offered for him as well — commented Braz.
Due to the repeated injuries in the Flamengo's squad, the board tried to keep the boy Wesley as long as possible, until he could get a replacement. After all, coach Tite only has Varela at his disposal. The board even sounded out Khellven (CSKA-RUS) and Montiel (Sevilla-ESP) for the current transfer window. However, with the boy from the Nest remaining, the searches must be suspended.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
