The Rio club is looking for reinforcements at right-back, and the 23-year-old from CSKA is on the radar

0Flamengo, looking for reinforcements at right-back after Wesley's imminent departure to Italian football, turns his attention to Khellven, a player who currently plays for CSKA, from Russia. The athlete, who previously played for Athletico-PR, has been standing out in transfer market speculation and could be the Rio club's next target.
CSKA established a considerable amount for the player's release, stipulating it at 7 million euros, approximately R$41 million, according to the current price. This amount is significantly higher than the 4.5 million euros (around R$23.7 million) paid by the Russian club to Athletico-PR in August last year, almost double the original amount. The information was released by journalist Venê Casagrande.
Currently, Flamengo evaluates aspects such as Khellven's salary and his interest in returning to Brazil, but has not yet made a formal proposal to CSKA. This season, the 23-year-old player played 38 matches, starting 30 of them, with a balance of one goal scored and six assists.
Khellven, who was part of the Brazilian team in the Pre-Olympic alongside Endrick, from Real Madrid, has 175 games for Athletico-PR, with eight goals and 22 assists. At Furacão, he won the Copa Sudamericana and the Copa do Brasil, consolidating his career in Brazilian football before his transfer to Europe.
