If three years ago Messi had never changed clubs, now the renowned player may be about to be loaned out for the first time in his career. With the elimination of Inter Miami in the MLS, which no longer has a chance of qualifying for the league playoffs and will not play for four months, there is the possibility that the Argentine star will be loaned for a period of six months to a new team.
According to information from the newspaper 'SPORT', Saudi Arabia showed interest in having Messi for a period of six months. Before deciding to sign with Inter Miami, the Argentine star received a billion-dollar proposal from Al-Hilal, a team that includes Jorge Jesus and Neymar Jr., but chose to transfer to the United States.
Of course, it's good Part of the Flamengo fans joined the bandwagon and asked for the star to be hired at Mais Querido. Something that would be almost impossible due to the worldwide competition for the player and also, the final stretch of the tournaments in Brazil is approaching. The tendency is for number 10 to go on a long vacation or go to the Arab world.
Inter Miami still has two matches in the North American league, both against Charlotte FC, but its chances of qualifying for the playoffs were extinguished after a defeat to Cincinnati, last Saturday (07), with a score of 1 to 0. Messi was not included in the lineup for this clash.
According to the same vehicle, Inter Miami is willing to respect the 36-year-old player's decision. To date, Messi has played 12 games for the club, with an impressive total of 11 goals and five assists. Furthermore, he has already won a title with the team, the United States Leagues Cup.
Mais Querido is looking for a new goalkeeper to compete with Rossi and the former Corinthians goalkeeper could be an option for the Rio de Janeiro team's board.

Palmeiras has made progress in talks to sign Carlos Miguel, currently on his way out of Nottingham Forest, but the deal may take longer than expected. The reason is that the leaked negotiations changed the course of the latest negotiations , causing discomfort between the parties.
The situation is gaining momentum with the possibility of other clubs entering the competition. According to information from GoalBR, Flamengo and Bahia are evaluating the signing . In the case of the Rio de Janeiro club, the board has already expressed interest and is analyzing the feasibility of submitting a formal offer.
Standing at 6'4" and a standout performer in his respective competitions, former Corinthians player Carlos Miguel has become one of the most sought-after targets on the market . His profile appeals to clubs looking to bolster their defense with security and experience.
Enjoying a strong run in the Brasileirão and advancing in the Libertadores, Flamengo is already making moves behind the scenes to strengthen its squad. The board has prioritized the arrival of a new goalkeeper , especially given the confirmed departure of Matheus Cunha. The goalkeeper signed a pre-contract with Cruzeiro and will leave the club free of charge at the end of the season.
Despite their confidence in Rossi, Flamengo's board knows they need at least one more high-level goalkeeper on the roster. This time, the team wants to tap the transfer market to replace the Argentine , who has made some mistakes in recent games.
The defender continues to improve physically and should return to the field against Internacional in the Brasileirão, after a six-match absence.

Since the victory over Fluminense on July 20, Flamengo's defense has faced a challenge in the absence of Danilo. The defender has missed six consecutive games, including the Copa do Brasil round of 16, but is showing significant progress in his recovery and is expected to return to training with the squad later this week.
Despite the progress, his participation against Internacional, this Wednesday (13), at Maracanã, for the Libertadores , is ruled out. The technical committee opts for caution, aiming to avoid the risk of new injury.
The internal expectation is that Danilo will be available for the match against Colorado, valid for the Brazilian Championship, next Sunday (17), at 6:30 pm, at Beira-Rio. If the return is confirmed, the defender's presence will bring more stability to the defensive system and allow strategic rest for Léo Ortiz and Léo Pereira, who have been playing without rest since his injury.
Without Danilo, the central defender duo has started all six recent games , amassing 540 minutes of unsubstituted play. Their teammate's return is seen as crucial to relieving the strain and offering coach Filipe Luís new options.
During the period without the defender, Flamengo faced crucial challenges. In addition to the Copa do Brasil match against Atlético-MG, which ended in elimination, the team played four Brasileirão matches, winning three and drawing one.
The sole decision of the continental tournament takes place on November 29, in Peru, repeating the stage of the 2019 final won by Flamengo over River Plate.
