FLAMENGO ATTACKER CARLINHOS MAKES A POST ABOUT HIS RETURN TO TRAINING, PLAYER COMES LOOKING FOR OPPORTUNITIES

Flamengo continues negotiating with Lazio in Italy, the terms of the midfielder's loan Marcos Antônio. One of the main points of discussion between the clubs is the mandatory purchase clause, which the Italian club wants to impose if the player plays in 50% of the matches during the loan period. Rubro-Negro, in turn, did not accept this condition and is trying to adjust the definition of "games" to this goal.

This lack of definition has been one of the main obstacles in negotiations, as Flamengo seeks greater flexibility in the conditions that would force the athlete to purchase. Another important point under discussion is the value of the purchase option. The expectation is that Flamengo will pay between 5 and 6 million euros (approximately R$30.4 to R$36.4 million at current prices), in addition to additional bonuses, to acquire Marcos Antônio permanently.

FLAMENGO AND ITS DEFINITION BY THE NEW REINFORCEMENT

Flamengo is carefully evaluating the numbers involved in the transaction. The club seeks to balance investments to reinforce the squad without compromising its finances. Marcos Antônio is a young midfielder who stood out in European football. A graduate of Athletico-PR's youth teams, he transferred to Estoril, in Portugal, before arriving at Lazio, in Italy. His technical ability and game vision caught the attention of Flamengo, who see the player as a potential reinforcement for the team led by Tite.

Negotiations between Flamengo and Lazio should continue in the coming days. The expectation is that both parties will reach an agreement that is satisfactory to everyone involved. Meanwhile, Flamengo remains attentive to the transfer market, looking for reinforcements that can contribute to the continuation of the season.

Behind the scenes at Flamengo are busy looking for reinforcements for next season. The Rio club, always attentive to market opportunities, is now focusing on signing midfielder Marcos Antônio, currently at Lazio, in Italy. In addition to him, there are other names on the agenda, but which have not yet been leaked to the press.

Directors Marcos Braz and Bruno Spindel, responsible for Flamengo's negotiations, will soon embark for Europe. The report found that the English capital, London, is on the itinerary, suggesting that directors are keeping an eye on more than one player and that talks could involve other European clubs besides Lazio.

MARCOS ANTONIO IS A PRIORITY MÁXIMA 

Marcos Antônio is 24 years old and has already accepted the proposal from Flamengo for a one-year loan. The young midfielder, who stood out in European football, welcomes the opportunity to wear the red and black shirt and return to Brazil to play for one of the country's biggest clubs. However, the negotiation is not simple and there are still pending issues to be resolved with the Italian club.

The main obstacle to completing the loan are the triggers that would determine the purchase obligation at the end of the period. Lazio wants to ensure that Flamengo commits to buying the player permanently if some goals are achieved during the loan. The red-black leaders will travel to Rome to try to adjust these details and close the agreement.

With 32 games played, the striker scored 24 goals, standing out as one of the most efficient scorers of the season. In addition to the goals, Pedro contributed with 6 assists, adding a total of 30 direct participation in goals. This performance puts the player at an average of participation every 87 minutes on the field, a notable feat that demonstrates his decision-making capacity in matches.

The striker's efficiency becomes even more evident when we analyze his finishes. Pedro took 97 shots, 50 of which went towards the goal. This means that, on average, he needs 4.1 shots to score a goal. These numbers not only highlight the player's precision, but also his ability to constantly create and take advantage of goal-scoring opportunities.

A GOAL AND ASSIST STAR 

Pedro's performance against throughout this semester is reflected in his rating on Sofascore, a renowned player statistics and performance website. With an average of 7.44, the striker positions himself as one of the best in the league, highlighting his regularity and impact on the field. This data isn't just cold numbers; they represent Pedro's evolution and maturation as a player. Since his first appearances, he has always shown potential, but it was this semester that he managed to consolidate himself and transform that potential into concrete results. His performance is the result of a lot of work, dedication and a clear tactical and technical evolution.

In addition to the goals and assists, Pedro also stands out for his presence on the field. With a keen sense of positioning and precise finishing ability, he became a real nightmare for opposing defenders. His intelligent movements and ability to distinguish himself are some of the factors that contributed to these impressive numbers.

Another point that deserves to be highlighted is Pedro's contribution to the team. His assists show that he is not just a finisher, but also a player who knows how to create opportunities for his teammates. This versatility makes him even more valuable to the team, showing that he is capable of fulfilling different roles on the field.
