Flamengo is keeping its sights set on Santos goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão as its top target to be Agustín Rossi's immediate backup on Filipe Luís's team . The player has excelled for Santos, but negotiations are far from progressing.


Despite the Rubro-Negro's interest, Santos president Marcelo Teixeira has not made negotiations easier and remains resistant to the idea of releasing the player to a direct rival . The Alvinegro board, in fact, has expressed a preference for negotiating with European clubs.


R$44 MILLION OFFER REJECTED


According to information from André Hernan (UOL Esporte), Flamengo presented a proposal of 7 million euros (around R$ 44.2 million) for 70% of Brazão's economic rights . The offer was made this Friday (15), but was again rejected by Santos.

Santos's request is much higher: €15 million (R$94.8 million), plus performance bonuses . In other words, more than double the amount offered by the Rio de Janeiro club. Mengão is looking to replace Matheus Cunha, who has already agreed a pre-contract with Cruzeiro for next season.


IMPASSE MAINTAINED

With the rejection, the goalkeeper's future remains uncertain. Flamengo has not yet indicated whether it will make another move , but the difference between the asking and offering figures has kept the deal on hold. According to Transfermarkt, Gabriel Brazão has already played 64 matches for Santos, conceded 68 goals, and left the field 22 times without conceding a goal.

After Gerson's transfer to Zenit, the Flamengo captaincy position was open , and the competition seemed obvious to both fans and coach Filipe Luís. Mengão star Arrascaeta revealed that he relinquished the armband in favor of Bruno Henrique . The Uruguayan only takes over the armband when the number 27 is not on the field, a situation that occurs frequently.


Arrascaeta on Bruno Henrique as captain at Flamengo: "I prefer him to be number one"


"We had a meeting after Gerson left, and Filipe came to me and asked if I or Bruno would be the first captain. I said it didn't matter to me, because I know what a great person and friend Bruno is by my side ," Arrascaeta said.


ADMIRATION FOR BRUNO HENRIQUE

The Uruguayan justified his choice by highlighting the friendship and admiration he has for his strike partner. Just as he treated the number 10 shirt while Gabigol was at the club, Arrascaeta does not intend to wear the armband while Bruno Henrique is at Flamengo .


"When he's available, I prefer him to be number one, because he's a guy I admire a lot, both on and off the field . He's a great friend of mine," added the Uruguayan star, highlighting his bond with the number 27.

VICTORIOUS PARTNERSHIP

Since arriving at Flamengo together in 2019, Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique have become symbols of one of the club's most successful eras . Together, they have won 14 titles: four Campeonato Carioca titles, two Campeonato Brasileiro titles, two Libertadores titles, three Super Cups, one Recopa Sudamericana title, and two Copa do Brasil titles.
