Vice-president of Mengão made a point of explaining the negotiation that almost failed in Gávea
|
As in practically all the last chapters of soap operas, Flamengo experienced its last moment of serialization this Friday (8), with the presentation of Léo Ortiz punctuating a long story with a happy ending. The signing of the defender from Red Bull Bragantino went back and forth, with situations that almost put an end to the conversations. It was difficult, but Mengão managed to achieve an objective pursued with persistence.
During the defender's presentation, vice-president Marcos Braz began by explaining the main reason he decided to a drawn-out negotiation: “It’s a great pleasure to be here presenting Léo (Ortiz). I think everyone followed the soap opera Léo Ortiz. The soap opera was based on the complexity of the athlete along with his quality and of course the financial part in which you have to adjust to make the signing”, began the director.
Braz did It's a question of thanking the player for his stance, as the main point: “I think we have to come here and say thank you on some points. Thank you to Leo, who from the first day we spoke, I think there was a mutual combination. We didn't let go anymore. And it was in this process: always respecting Bragantino, but we always had to respect our budget. It took a little while.”
The Mais Querido vice president continued with his thanks and highlighted how Tite, Rubro-Negro coach, was fundamental for the deal to be sealed and the barriers left to behind, with resilience, strategy and conviction.
“Thanks to Paulo, his manager. Good luck to you. He is a national team player, who was on the pre-list for the World Cup. Tite was more than important in this process because I think that when he asks to be hired, he doesn't ask for other names. He wanted you”, said Braz.
The arrival of Léo Ortiz marks Fla's third signing of reinforcements, which saw little movement compared to other years. But, very assertive, closing with Nicolás De La Cruz, Gávea's former dream and Matías Viña, a popular full-back who takes over the position in a sector that the Club needed.

Mais Querido used the midfielder’s negotiation as revenge for Léo Ortiz
|
The transfer window has come to an end and Flamengowill remain with Matheus Gonçalves until next year. The young midfielder aroused interest from Rio Ave (POR) and Bragantino, a team he was loaned to last season. However, the operations did not continue due to different impasses, and the athlete's will prevailed.
O Flamengo managed to drag out negotiations with Bragantino. The Bragança Paulista team offered a value of 6 million euros (R$ 37.3 million), a value that Rubro-Negro considered acceptable by 50% and not by 70% as the São Paulo team wanted. The parties continued negotiating but, with other investments in the window, the Bragança club reached its budget limit and the ceiling of only 3 million euros (R$ 18.6 million).
VALUES PRESENTED< /b>Thus, according to information from GE, two business models were discussed based on this value: the purchase of 70% of economic rights or the loan with an obligation to purchase after meeting targets. Highlighting that in this second, Mais Querido would receive the 3 million euros and another 4 million euros (R$ 24.8 million) from next season, conditional on meeting goals.
< b>"EXCHANGE" FOR LÉO ORTIZHowever, one factor weighed on Flamengo's decision. This is because Rubro-Negro wanted to get back at Bragantino for making negotiations for Léo Ortiz difficult. Therefore, Mais Querido did not release the midfielder to the São Paulo team.
Matheus Gonçalves even received an offer from Rio Ave (POR), and Flamengo accepted it. However, the young man did not want to go to the Portuguese club and will remain at Mais Querido until the next transfer window.
