Flamengo is about to announce the signing of Ecuadorian Gonzalo Plata as its fourth reinforcement in the current transfer window. The agreement with Al-Sadd, from Qatar, has been finalized, and the Rio club is just waiting for the return of the signed contract to make the player's arrival official. Plata will sign with Rubro-Negro until December 2028.

NEGOTIATION DETAILS
Flamengo will initially pay US$ 4.25 million (around R$24 million) to acquire more than 30% of Gonzalo Plata's economic rights. The remainder will be acquired progressively, as the player reaches goals stipulated in the contract.

The total operation, so that Flamengo has 100% of the player's rights, will be closed at US$9.1 million (approximately R$51.9 million). Furthermore, Al-Sadd guaranteed a 30% profit on a possible future sale of the athlete.



LONG NEGOTIATION AND EXPECTATIONS

The negotiation for the young 23-year-old player, revealed by Independiente del Valle and with spells at Sporting-POR and Valladolid-ESP, was the longest of this transfer window. Although an agreement was almost reached on the 23rd, changes in the conditions proposed by Al-Sadd required new adjustments. The initial forecast was that Plata would disembark in Rio de Janeiro by August 25th, but the process was prolonged due to these impasses.
GONZALO PLATA'S PERFORMANCE LAST SEASON

Last season, Gonzalo Plata, playing for Al-Sadd, scored 12 goals and provided eight assists. With his arrival, Flamengo hopes to further reinforce its squad for the remainder of the season, seeking titles on both the national and international scene.
