Flamengo has a new target in negotiations for a side

Flamengo showed interest in signing right-back Arthur, currently at Bayer Leverkusen, in Germany. The Rio club's board consulted the player, but the response they received was not encouraging. Arthur, who stood out at América-MG before moving to European football, made it clear that he has no intention of returning to Brazil at this time.

Information about the consultation Flamengo was released by journalist Mauro Cezar, who revealed that, despite Due to the club's desire to reinforce the right-back position, Arthur prefers to continue his career in Europe. This decision reflects the player's objective of consolidating his trajectory in international football, where he believes he has more opportunities for growth and visibility.

Arthur, who is just 20 years old, was traded to Bayer Leverkusen in 2022, and since then has established himself as one of the promises of Brazilian football on the European scene. The possibility of returning to Brazil at this stage of his career does not seem to be an attractive option for the young player, who is still looking to fully establish himself in the Bundesliga and, who knows, gain space in the Brazilian national team.

The search for a right-back is one of Flamengo , which tries to reinforce itself for the remainder of the season. The club already has options in the position, but sees in Arthur an athlete with a promising profile and who could add quality to the squad. However, given the player's negative response, Flamengo should look for other alternatives on the market to meet this need.
