Flamengo and Bragantino reached an agreement regarding the values in the early hours of this Friday. In a meeting that ended around 3am, an understanding was reached so that Rubro-Negro pay 8.5 million euros for the transfer. Léo Ortiz will sign a contract valid until December 2028.
Flamengo will pay 7 million euros in two installments, in addition to 1.5 million in the same currency for variables. A pending issue, however, still prevents Flamengo and Ortiz from officially celebrating the end of the prolonged negotiation.
Bragantino, based on a loophole in the National Regulation for the Registration and Transfer of Football Athletes (RNRTAF), wants the defender to participate in the two games against Botafogo in the last knockout phase of the pre-Libertadores.
NEGOTIATION BETWEEN FLAMENGO AND BRAGANTINO
Flamengo , Bragantino and Léo Ortiz were together until dawn. Marcos Braz and Bruno Spindel represented the Cariocas, while Diego Cerri was the representative of the São Paulo, and Paulo Pitombeira defended Ortiz's interests.
Pitombeira was the one who managed to put Cerri, the Bragantino executive, at the negotiating table . Previously adamant about not selling the player to Brazilian rivals, the Bragança Paulista club was not willing to negotiate. The agent, aware of his client's desire to play for Flamengo, managed to close the deal and formalized that they would give up 25% of the rights in a future transfer.

The new agreement will bring the Rio de Janeiro club R$268 million per year and positions the team among the biggest contracts in world football with the betting house.

Flamengo's Deliberative Council approved, this Tuesday (19), the master sponsorship contract with Betano , one of the global leaders in sports betting. The link will begin on August 20, 2025 and will remain valid until December 31, 2028 , guaranteeing the club R$268 million per season. The agreement is considered the largest ever signed in national football.
The partnership includes brand exposure on the uniforms of the professional team and also on Olympic sports such as volleyball, basketball, and women's soccer. Additionally, the company will be featured on Flamengo TV content, expanding commercial integration and global visibility. The board emphasizes that the agreement is not limited to financial support, but opens doors to new business opportunities.
With values comparable to those of European football giants, the contract brings Flamengo closer to clubs like Real Madrid, PSG, and Barcelona. For comparison, Flamengo's partnership surpasses sponsorships from clubs like Ajax, whose partnership with Ziggo generates only €8 million (approximately R$51 million) per year. This amount places the Brazilian team in 10th place in the world rankings for largest sponsorship deals.
This Wednesday (20), at 8:30 am, president Luiz Eduardo Baptista , known as Bap, will be live on Flamengo TV alongside Guilherme Augusto Figueiredo, General Director of Betano Brasil. The conversation will be led by João Guilherme and will cover the details of the negotiation considered historic.
The striker is accompanying the delegation to Porto Alegre for the match against Internacional, but is experiencing a period of uncertainty and low minutes.

Striker Juninho traveled with the Flamengo squad to Porto Alegre, where the team faces Internacional this Wednesday (20) , for the decisive clash of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. However, the player's use is not yet confirmed . Out of the last match against Colorado for the Brazilian Championship, the center forward lost space in recent weeks and was not related in three consecutive games, including the first leg duel at Maracanã.
Internally, the club's board is evaluating the athlete's future, as he has received inquiries from Saudi Arabian football clubs, with loan proposals rejected by the club. Previously, Juninho was close to a move to Sevilla earlier this year.
Negotiations, however, were halted after coach Filipe Luís intervened, contacting the striker to convince him to join Mengão's project. The investment was substantial: R$37.2 million to acquire the number 23, who currently has no place on the team.
In 2025, Juninho played 22 matches for Flamengo , scoring just three goals and providing no assists. He played 726 minutes that season, almost always sporadically used by Filipe Luís. In the Carioca Championship, he appeared in eight matches and scored two goals.
He has already played six times in the Brasileirão, without finding the net. In the Libertadores, he played four games and scored one goal , while in the national cups and the Club World Cup, he failed to stand out.
Colorado will have important reinforcements such as Alan Patrick and Carbonero to face Flamengo in a decisive duel at Beira-Rio

He's competing for a starting spot with Tabata, who returns from suspension. Another important addition is midfielder Alan Patrick, the team's captain , who was rested for the last Brasileirão match and is once again a key player in creating attacking plays.
