With no place at Flamengo, 21-year-old midfielder Victor Hugo 's negotiations with Santos have stalled. Since returning to Turkish football, he has played little and is on the Mais Querido's list of transferable players. Despite the approval of coach Filipe Luís and director José Boto, the deal depends on the demands of president Luiz Eduardo Baptista , known as Bap.
The transaction was moving forward, with acceptances from Filipe Luís and Boto, but Bap conditioned approval on obligation clauses based on targets, not just a future option. Furthermore, the Mengão president requested financial guarantees from Santos to avoid the risk of default , according to journalist Lucas Musetti of UOL.
The loan model provides for immediate payment and the possibility of purchase based on target dates. Another requirement from Bap is that the deal must not jeopardize reinforcements at other Brazilian clubs . However, this issue shouldn't be an obstacle if Santos accepts the requested financial and contractual clauses.
The president's stance follows a previous pattern, as was the case in the Thiago Maia deal with Santos . At the time, Bap only authorized the midfielder's transfer after guarantees of payment were received, blocking the deal without proof of payment.
While the negotiations remain uncertain, Victor Hugo continues to train normally under Filipe Luís and seeks opportunities at Flamengo . The player's release will depend on Santos meeting all the club president's demands, but there is still the possibility of an agreement if the terms are accepted.

Former Flamengo player Carlos Alcaraz was one of Everton's protagonists in the 2-0 victory over Mansfield, from the English third division, this Wednesday (27), in the third phase of the English League Cup. The Argentine midfielder scored a beautiful goal from outside the area and celebrated in the style of Cristiano Ronaldo , showing confidence in his new club.
Signed in July 2024 by Flamengo , Alcaraz was the most expensive reinforcement in the history of Rubro-Negro at the time, with an investment of 20 million dollars (R$ 110 million at the exchange rate of August 28, 2024). For Mais Querido, the Argentine played 19 official matches, scoring three goals and providing two assists , leaving his mark despite his short stint at Mengão .
The midfielder made no secret of his dissatisfaction with the way his departure from Flamengo was reported. In an exclusive interview with ESPN, he dismissed the reports circulating about his transfer as "lies" and emphasized that he wanted to remain at the Rio de Janeiro club.
" I just have to say that everything they said about me is a lie. That's all I have to say. They said a lot of things about me. Filipe (Luís), (José) Boto, and I know why I decided to leave. That's all! Let people rest assured. I really wanted to stay at Flamengo, I wanted to stay because I know what a player I am. They tried to turn people against me," Alcaraz said.
The Argentine added: " After they said they couldn't find the position, I obviously didn't like it. I'm a player and I can adapt to any position," reinforcing that he would have been willing to play in different areas of the field had he remained at Mengão.
The Mais Querido released the standout player from the two-time U-20 Libertadores championship to Portuguese football, maintaining half of the athlete's economic rights.

Flamengo has released 20-year-old goalkeeper Lucas Furtado to sign with Vitória de Guimarães in Portugal. The youngster, considered a hero in the club's second U-20 Libertadores title , recently lost his place in the team due to his refusal to renew his contract, which was due to expire in December 2025.
Lucas Furtado failed to reach an agreement with the Red-Blacks to extend his contract, and gradually dropped out of the starting lineup for the U-20 team. In the Intercontinental Cup final against Barcelona, 18-year-old Léo Nannetti took over and excelled in the match , reinforcing the club's decision to allow the young goalkeeper to leave.
The athlete played a key role in Flamengo 's U-20 Libertadores campaigns. In 2024, against Boca Juniors, he played a role in almost the entirety of the team's undefeated run . The following year, he stood out by saving two penalties in the final against Palmeiras, cementing his reputation as one of the top players in Mengão's youth academy.
Lucas Furtado said goodbye to his teammates during training last Wednesday and remains selected for the Brazilian U-20 team's friendlies, the last opportunity before the final roster for the U-20 World Cup is announced, scheduled for September. The Mais Querido retains 50% of the goalkeeper's economic rights , guaranteeing participation in a future negotiation if the player excels in Europe.
Flamengo made official this Thursday (28) the departure of Lorran, one of the talents revealed at Ninho do Urubu. The player will go to Pisa, in Italy, where he will undergo medical examinations before joining the new club . The transaction involves an initial payment of 500 thousand euros (approximately R$ 3.1 million) to Mais Querido.
Cria do Ninho is loaned to the European club, which will pay 500 thousand euros to Mais Querido and can acquire the player for up to 4 million euros in targets

Flamengo made official this Thursday (28 ) the departure of Lorran, one of the talents revealed at Ninho do Urubu . The player will go to Pisa, in Italy, where he will undergo medical examinations before joining the new club. The transaction involves an initial payment of 500 thousand euros (approximately R$ 3.1 million) to Mais Querido.
The contract stipulates specific conditions: if Lorran plays in half of Pisa's matches and the team remains in the Italian top flight, the player's purchase will be mandatory. If all criteria are met , the European club will pay €4 million (approximately R$25 million) to acquire 50% of the player's economic rights , while Flamengo will retain the other half. The information was released by the 'GE' portal.
Lorran first stood out in Flamengo's youth ranks, winning important titles and attracting attention for his technique and consistency. The recent highlight of the athlete's youth career came last Saturday (23) , when Flamengo beat Barcelona (ESP) in the U-20 Club World Cup. Lorran scored a goal during normal time and converted a penalty kick, directly contributing to the title.
Flamengo has completed the sale of Matheus Gonçalves to Saudi Arabia's Al-Ahli for €8 million (R$50 million). The midfielder had been playing for the U-20 team after losing his place under coach Filipe Luís and was a starter in the U-20 team's Intercontinental Cup triumph.
With the player's departure, Flamengo is preparing to face Grêmio on Sunday (31), for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship . The match will be held at Maracanã, at 4 pm (Brasília time), and marks Mengão's return to the competition after the movement in the transfer market.
