After signing Michael, Alex Sandro, Alcaraz and Gonzalo Plata, Flamengo considered bringing in another striker due to Pedro's serious injury. With the end of the negotiation period, the club's options were limited to players without a contract, and several names have been evaluated since last week. However, the deadline established by Marcos Braz, vice-president of football at Rubro-Negro, expired last Tuesday (10) and the search for a fifth reinforcement lost momentum internally. The information is from 'GE'.
Last Monday (9), after Gonzalo Plata's official presentation, there was a meeting to define the club's next steps, with Tuesday being the deadline to make decisions, one day after registration for the Copa do Brasil closes.
The most discussed name behind the scenes was that of Frenchman Anthony Martial, 28 years old, who did not renew with Manchester United , from England, in July. The attacker caught the attention of Flamengo, who considered him a market opportunity with a view to 2025. The possibility starting negotiations was discussed.
In the last days of the window, Flamengo tried to sign Deivid Washington, 19-year-old striker linked to Chelsea. With just 24 hours left to complete the negotiation, the club was unable to reach an agreement with the English team for a loan without an option to buy. Mais Querido did not agree to bear the young player's monthly costs, and Chelsea, in turn, did not give in.
If it changes its strategy, Flamengo still has nine more days to make signings for the Brazilian Championship and Libertadores. To compete in Series A, a reinforcement must be registered by September 20th. In the Libertadores, registration for the quarter-finals closes on the 13th, and for the semi-finals, the deadline is October 18th.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
