The transfer window is close to opening. With this, Flamengo is already starting to move behind the scenes to be able to make good planning and hire the right players. One of Mais Querido's old targets, midfielder Arthur, ex-Grêmio, has an undefined future at Juventus (ITA).
Therefore, the player's agent, Federico Pastorello, broke his silence about the midfielder's possible transfer to Rubro Negro. In contact with journalist Matheus Leal, the Italian agent stated that Arthur's transfer to Flamengo is not possible.
However, Pastorello also said that the 27-year-old player's future will be defined around June 2024. “ We will decide everything at the end of the season”, confirmed the businessman to the reporter who asked about the possibility of Arthur being a possible reinforcement for Flamengo.
FLAMENGO'S FORMER TARGET
When Flamengo was looking for a new midfielder in the 2023 mid-year transfer window, Arthur's name appeared on the radar. However, Juventus did not give in in the negotiations, and the player preferred to stay in Europe. Therefore, Fiorentina entered the race and signed the athlete.
Even though Flamengo has left its interest open for the next few windows, Arthur still intends to continue in Europe. The understanding of the player's staff is that the midfielder has the potential to continue a few more seasons on the old continent.

According to UOL journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira, Sportingbet has outbid other major companies in the sector and is in the process of formalizing a contract with Flamengo .

The end of the partnership with Pixbet was made official hours before the duel against Internacional for the Libertadores, last Wednesday (13). On that occasion, the team entered the field with the word “thank you” printed above the former sponsor , as a gesture of gratitude for the period of collaboration.
Behind the scenes, Flamengo acted quickly to secure a new partner . The board of directors opened a competition, asking interested companies to submit sealed proposals. Initially, Betano and Superbet emerged as the favorites.

Superbet, which was well-positioned, decided to withdraw after the number of competitors increased . If the deal goes through, Sportingbet will sponsor the two clubs that have excelled in Brazilian football in recent years, deepening the rivalry between them on the national stage.

Argentine midfielder Esequiel Barco has returned to Flamengo's radar . According to information from Italian journalist Marco Mampreso, from the Oggi Sport Notizie portal, the player has already reached an agreement with the Rubro-Negro , with only negotiations with Spartak Moscow, from Russia, remaining.
According to the publication, Flamengo is expected to formalize an offer of €14 million (approximately R$88 million) to try to convince the Russians to release the athlete. Previously, Mengão had offered €10 million, but Spartak promptly rejected the offer.
Barco's name had already been floated behind the scenes at the Rio de Janeiro club when negotiations with Colombian Jorge Carrascal became complicated. However, the possibility faded after the former Dynamo Moscow player's arrival .
Despite the interest in Barco , the club's board maintains the signing of a center forward as a priority in this transfer window. The club has not ruled out investing up to €15 million to strengthen its attacking position.
While the board takes care of the transfer window, coach Filipe Luís is concerned with preparing the team that will take to the field to face Internacional this Sunday (17) at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), for the 20th round of the Brasileirão. Mais Querido is the leader of the competition with 40 points and is looking for a victory to remain isolated in first place.
