With the 2023 season coming to an end, Flamengo's board is already moving with a focus on planning for 2024. One of Rubro Negro's main priorities is the renewal of its relationship with Bruno Henrique. Therefore, the meeting with the striker's agent was rescheduled for next Tuesday (10).
According to journalist Fred Gomes, from GE, the meeting between Bruno Henrique's representatives and Flamengo's board was rescheduled for next Tuesday (10). It is worth remembering that, in principle, the meeting between Rubro Negro's directors and the striker's staff would take place last Saturday (7), but had to be cancelled.
It is worth remembering that Flamengo wanted to renew the link with the athlete until the end of 2024. However, the player's staff, on the other hand, asked for the agreement to last for two more seasons. With this, the Rubro Negro board accepted the businessmen's request. However, now, they are asking for another three years of contract, and Mais Querido will respond to the counter-proposal from the number 27's advisors.
Bruno Henrique arrived at Flamengo in 2019 and from then on he has been fundamental in all of Rubro Negro's title wins, including the Libertadores da América. The player has already become the nation's idol and wants to stay for a while longer representing the Sacred Mantle.
Bruno has a contract with Flamengo until the end of 2023, and remains at Rubro Negro's disposal. Mais Querido's next appointment takes place after the FIFA Data break, in 12 days. Therefore, Mais Querido returns to the field to face Cruzeiro, on October 19, in the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship.
