With an eye on strengthening its creative department, Flamengo has Lucas Paquetá as a priority in the transfer market. According to journalist Jorge Nicola, the West Ham midfielder is the club's main target in this transfer window. " Lucas Paquetá remains in Flamengo's plans. And I'll say more: he's Bap's and Boto's number one priority," Nicola stated.
Flamengo is looking for a playmaker for the remainder of the season, and Paquetá appears to be the ideal candidate for the role. However, Flamengo officials are awaiting the conclusion of the trial involving the player, which could result in an acquittal or even suspension from professional football: "The Flamengo officials are just waiting for the conclusion of the trial, which could result in an acquittal or ban for Paquetá, to move forward with this," Nicola added on his YouTube channel.
While monitoring Paquetá's situation, the club has made progress on another front: the signing of midfielder Jorge Carrascal from Dynamo Moscow. According to Argentine journalist César Luis Merlo, the Russians have accepted the €12 million (approximately R$78 million) offer made by Mengão.
With negotiations well underway, the legal departments are already working on formalizing the agreement. Carrascal's contract is expected to last four seasons, if everything goes according to plan. The Colombian's signing is seen as an important asset to increase the club's competitiveness in midfield and offer the club's coach more options.
Both Paquetá and Carrascal are considered technical, versatile, and creative players. The board believes these reinforcements can elevate the squad at a crucial time in the season, with important national and international matches on the calendar.

Today is an important game day for Flamengo in the Brazilian Championship . Mengão hosts Mirassol in the 19th round, and last of the first half, of the Brasileirão this Saturday (9) at 6:30 pm (Brasília time). Mais Querido needs the victory to remain in first place in the table , while Leão wants to enter the G4 of the competition.
One of the possible new players is Jorge Carrascal , who did not play in the Copa do Brasil against Atlético-MG due to not being registered, but is available for the Brasileirão. The Colombian is available to coach Filipe Luís for the first time since his arrival at Flamengo .
Coach Filipe Luís will be without key players for the match : Danilo, with a hamstring injury in his right thigh; De La Cruz, who is doing strength and mobility work at the gym due to a knee injury; and Erick Pulgar, who is recovering from surgery on the fifth metatarsal in his right foot, following an injury during the Club World Cup. Meanwhile, Jorginho is suspended for accumulating yellow cards.
On the other hand, there will be important reinforcements . Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique, who were on weight training due to pain and fatigue , trained normally in recent days and are available again. The former competes for a spot with Plata, while the latter could play as a false nine. Michael, who has recovered from a left ankle injury, is also returning, but is expected to start on the bench.
The defender left Mengão for Milan in 2019, but never established himself in the elite of European football and could be back in Rio de Janeiro.

Vasco is interested in signing defender Léo Duarte , currently with İstanbul Başakşehir in Turkey, to bolster its defense for the remainder of the season . The information was released by the Canak Vasco portal, in partnership with VDG-Cast.
Despite the interest, negotiations are seen as difficult. Léo Duarte is a regular starter and a key player for the Turkish club, making a quick release unlikely. The defender has already played 174 matches for Başakşehir, scoring two goals and providing four assists.
Vasco is also monitoring other defensive players, including Colombian Carlos Cuesta. The board is looking to expand its options to address one of the main needs of Fernando Diniz's squad : the arrival of an experienced defender.
Revealed in Flamengo 's youth ranks, Léo Duarte left the club in 2019. During his time playing for Rubro-Negro, he won two Campeonato Carioca titles (2017 and 2019) . The defender worked for about a month with Jorge Jesus before being sold to Milan (ITA), his first European club.
In Europe, he failed to establish himself at Milan and was loaned to İstanbul Başakşehir, who later acquired his rights permanently . He's currently enjoying a good run of form in Turkish football, which makes Vasco's move difficult.

The Ninho boys are in the final stretch of preparation for the U-20 World Cup final . On August 23, Flamengo faces Barcelona (ESP) at 4:30 pm (Brasília time) at Maracanã. Among the standouts, Matheus Gonçalves has already made himself available for the duel .
On social media, the club released promotional art for the match featuring the midfielder . Matheus reposted the post, reinforcing expectations that Bruno Pivetti will be used in the final. The midfielder was part of the U-20 World Cup-winning team last season, with the victory over Olympiacos.
The player was close to being traded to Cruzeiro and even reached an agreement with Pedro Lourenço, president of the Minas Gerais State Football Association (SAF). However, Flamengo opted to keep him. Without many opportunities under Filipe Luís, Matheus asked to play for the under-20s , where he excelled and returned to the professional squad.
Matheus Gonçalves remains one of the main names for a possible departure from Flamengo . Besides Cruzeiro, Red Bull Bragantino has also expressed interest in signing the midfielder. On the international market, CSKA Moscow has already signaled to Mengão that it intends to make an official offer in the coming days.
Even with the focus on the U-20 World Cup, Matheus Gonçalves remains available for the main team and may be related to the match against Mirassol , this Saturday (09), at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã, for the 19th round of the Brasileirão. The broadcast will be exclusive to Premiere, via pay-per-view.
