O Flamengo maintains a constant routine of traveling to Portugal during the transfer windows. This move is strategic, as the office of Giuliano Bertolucci, one of the main player agents and influential in the European market, operates in Portugal.
Bertolucci and his partners in Portugal have been instrumental for Flamengo in several negotiations international. They assist the Rio club in identifying opportunities, negotiating contracts and closing agreements with European clubs. Flamengo's constant presence in Portugal reflects the importance of this partnership for the club, which always seeks to strengthen its squad with players who play in European football.
FLAMENGO HAS A NEW DIRECTION IN NEGOTIATIONS
Bertolucci's role goes beyond just mediating negotiations. He and his team help Flamengo to better position itself in the European market, increasing the chances of successful transactions and ensuring that the club is always ahead in disputes for prominent players. This partnership is seen as a competitive advantage for Flamengo, which, through it, is able to bring in big names to make up the squad.
At each transfer window, Flamengo intensifies its presence in Portugal, seeking to maximize the results of market operations. Working together with Bertolucci allows the club to always be well informed and prepared to act quickly, taking advantage of the best opportunities available. Furthermore, this relationship facilitates contact with other European clubs and agents, expanding the range of options for Flamengo.

Striker Vitinho, recently signed by Corinthians , was officially presented at the São Paulo club this Tuesday. The former Flamengo player highlighted the warm welcome he received from Hugo Souza, Gustavo Henrique and Matheuzinho , players who played alongside him at Rubro-Negro.
"Matheuzinho (full-back) kept asking me if I was coming and I couldn't talk. He was a bit anxious, he wanted me to come and be here with him. They welcomed me with open arms, and that makes things much easier. I had this moment of welcoming them to the base. And now it's the other way around. Gustavo Henrique (defender) is someone with whom I have a very good relationship. It's good to be here with them," said Vitinho.
Despite his expected debut, Vitinho still doesn't have a confirmed date for his appearance for Corinthians . The striker emphasized that he needs time to adapt and be fully prepared physically.
Former Flamengo player Vitinho admits his anxiety at Corinthians: "I'm looking forward to my debut"
"I'm really looking forward to starting to play. But I really need some time. The staff is very qualified to get me in playing condition. I'm looking forward to making my debut, in the best possible conditions , given the situation we're experiencing today," said the new number 29.
Vitinho played for Flamengo between 2018 and 2022, winning nine titles during his time there, including the Brasileirão, Copa Libertadores, Supercopa do Brasil, and Campeonato Carioca. At the São Paulo club, he reunites with former teammates with whom he played for Flamengo 's youth academy and first team, strengthening his connection with the group.
With no place in English football, the 21-year-old striker is a target for a Minas Gerais team and could return to Brazil in search of more minutes on the field.

A standout in the Brazilian national team's youth ranks, Matheus França was promoted to Flamengo's senior team in 2022, scoring six goals in the victorious Libertadores and Copa do Brasil campaigns. In 2023, under Vítor Pereira, he maintained strong performances, with three goals and an assist in the first half of the year , before moving on to the Premier League.
The sale to Crystal Palace was brokered by John Textor, who was impressed by the youngster's performance in an under-20 match against Botafogo. The deal included a fixed €20 million and an additional €5 million in bonuses for targets that were not met.
Physical problems, such as back and thigh injuries, limited the Brazilian's adaptation to English football. In two seasons, Matheus França played 19 matches, scoring one goal and providing one assist. Despite being part of the FA Cup-winning squad, he missed key moments , such as the recent Super Cup against Liverpool, when he wasn't even included in the squad.
Cruzeiro sees the loan as an opportunity to strengthen its squad without a significant immediate investment. The goal is for the player to get more playing time , while Crystal Palace seeks a destination that will favor his development. The deal's completion will depend on the English club's willingness to facilitate the transfer.
Negotiations with the Argentine striker lose momentum after the transfer ban imposed on Lazio, which prevents replacement in case of departure and reinforces the player's permanence

The Italian press has once again mentioned Taty Castellanos as a target for Flamengo, but internal sources confirm that the board is not in talks with the Lazio player. According to an investigation by Gazeta do Urubu , major signings would only happen if there was an unexpected departure or serious injury to a starter.
The obstacle is related to the punishment imposed on the Roman club, which received a transfer ban for failing to meet financial requirements. The measure prevents the registration of new players until September , making immediate replacements impossible in the event of departure negotiations.
Castellanos , who played 40 games last season and 46 the previous season , is seen as a strategic part of the squad. President Claudio Lotito assured coach Maurizio Sarri that there would be no more losses in the squad. The promise was reaffirmed by sporting director Angelo Fabiani: "I shook the coach's hand twice," he told the Italian newspaper.
According to the foreign publication, Lazio analyzed the striker's performance during a friendly against Burnley in England. Castellanos came on in the final minutes, appeared calm , and expressed no interest in leaving the club, reinforcing the board's commitment to keeping him.
In the market, Rubro-Negro is looking for a number 9 with different characteristics than Pedro , prioritizing a more mobile and versatile player in attack. Names like Taremi, Beltrán, and Castellanos were evaluated, but without significant progress.
