Michael's return to Flamengo is gaining more and more strength. According to information from journalist @simpraisa, from GOAL Brasil, Flamengo's football department has already asked for an adjustment in the club's budget to make it possible to sign the striker. This movement occurs amid a series of injuries that have impacted the red and black squad, increasing the need for reinforcements, including the return of Michael.
Last Saturday (17), after Al -Hilal about Al Nassr, Michael gave a speech in the locker room that caught everyone's attention. The striker expressed great happiness and revealed to his teammates that he was about to return to Flamengo, the club where he stood out before moving to Saudi Arabia.
Although Sunday is a working day in Saudi Arabia, Michael's contract termination with Al-Hilal may not be finalized until Monday. This is because Al-Hilal's team and management decided to take advantage of Sunday to celebrate the title won against their biggest rival, which could postpone the bureaucratic procedures necessary for the player's departure.
In addition to Flamengo, other clubs also showed interest in counting on Michael. However, the striker made it clear that his priority in Brazil is a return to Flamengo, which puts the Rio club in an advantageous position in negotiations. Flamengo, in turn, he has been moving behind the scenes to ensure Michael's return. The readjustment of the budget is a strategic measure by the club, which seeks to meet the demands of the squad and coach for the remainder of the season. The striker's return is seen as an opportunity to strengthen the group, especially at a time when injuries have been a constant problem.
Michael, who shone in the red and black shirt before his move to In Arab football, he is considered a player with unique characteristics, capable of adding quality to Flamengo's attack. His speed, dribbling and decision-making power are qualities that can make a difference in the team's tactical scheme.
