After opening on July 10, the transfer window closes in Brazil this Monday (2). Flamengo made the most of the signing period. The club announced four reinforcements in the ball market, striker Michael, full-back Alex Sandro, midfielder Carlos Alcaraz and striker Gonzalo Plata.


Despite the near end, Flamengo continues with ongoing negotiations with the Chelsea (ENG). Mais Querido tries to sign the attacker on loan Deivid Washington, 19 years old, raised in the Santos youth categories, until December of this year. The young man played little for Chelsea's main team, but scored six goals in 11 games for the Blues' under-20s.


At first, Chelsea weren't very excited about the offer, mainly because they didn't involve any financial amount. Despite this, since last Sunday (1), Rubro-Negro started to believe that they can complete the deal and count on the player until the end of the season. This is not the first time that Flamengo has tried to sign this player, having offered him a contract even before going to Chelsea, in 2023. At the time, the striker preferred to renew with Santos.


The fans of Flamengo was excited about the possibility of the fifth signing in the transfer window and believes that the player himself gave clues about the deal. This is because Deivid Washington embarked for Brazil last Sunday (1). The attacker published a story inside the plane, with the emoji of a Brazilian flag. Despite Flamengo's euphoria, the young man headed to Brazil to introduce himself to the Under-20 National Team.

So far, two of Flamengo's four reinforcements this summer have already made their debut wearing the Sacred Mantle: Michael and Carlos Alcaraz. However, the striker was injured in his second match back at Mais Querido and could be out for up to two months. The midfielder was expelled in his first game for Mengão after punching the Corinthians player last Sunday (1).


Alex Sandro and Gonzalo Plata are still awaiting the commission's release Tite's technique to debut for Flamengo. The two arrived at the club to start work only on Friday (30). The full-back is already regularized with the IDB and the expectation is that the Ecuadorian will be able to register this Monday (2). The last three players still signed will be presented to the fans and press at Ninho do Urubu. Michael has already had his presentation.

THE PRESENTATIONS

Flamengo presents Alex Sandro on Thursday (5), at 1pm (Brasília time) . Carlos Alcaraz will speak to the press for the first time at 1:30 pm (Brasília time) on Friday (06). Finally, Gonzalo Plata will be introduced to the journalists who cover Mengão's daily life next Monday (09). The attacker was the last to be announced by Rubro-Negro.

The Deliberative Council of Flamengo voted and approved, this Tuesday, Shopee's new sponsorship. The Singaporean brand will print the sleeves of the shirts of the men's and women's football teams, as well as the basketball team. The sponsorship will yield R$ 12 million fixed to Flamengo. Payment will be made in three installments of R$4 million (February, April and July). There is still a variable value. That's 5% of sales in the Shopee affiliate program.


Thebrand will be on the sleeves of the game, training and warm-up shirt of the men's and women's football teams. In basketball, it is in front of the game, training and warm-up shorts. In terms of comparison, Kwai paid R$10 million for the same space in the 2024 season. The contract with Shopee will be until December 31, 2025.


On the back, Flamengo will not immediately fill the gap left by Mercado Livre. A test will be carried out with the FlaBet exhibition for a period of three months. The idea is to leverage the number of bets and earn more royalties, as you receive 1% of the gross value of bets.


Flamengo reaches four approved sponsorships in 2025

In addition to shopee, Rubro-Negro approved three sponsorships before. The brands involved are Texaco, ABC da Construção and In Drive. In total, Flamengo should receive more than R$20 million. Check the details of each brand:


Texaco: number of the men's first team shirts and a small shield on the training and warm-up shirts of the main team and the under-20 team. Two-year contract, R$4.2 million in the first and R$4.8 in the second, totaling R$9 million.

ABC of Construction: back part of both legs in the shorts of professional teams (men's and women's), men's under-20s and men's professional basketball. One-year contract, with R$5.5 million in cash and R$2 million in exchange (it is worth remembering that the club is building a mini-stadium in Ninho do Urubu), totaling R$7.5 million.

In Drive: microphone at press conferences for the men's team and on the back of the shirt for the women's team. One-year contract for around R$7 million.

O Flamengo decided that the attacker Carlinhos will not be part of the plans of the squad led by Filipe Luís. After internal evaluation, the player was released to seek new opportunities in the transfer market. The athlete was offered to clubs in Europe, such as Estoril and Rio Ave, both from Portugal, but negotiations did not progress. According to information, the two clubs analyzed the player with the support of their scouting departments and decided not to close the deal.


FLAMENGO CONTINUES SEARCHING FOR INTERESTED PARTIES


Despite the first impasses, the CRF remains committed to finding a destination for Carlinhos. The club is in contact with other markets and is considering alternatives to negotiate the striker, whether through a permanent sale or loan. The decision not to include Carlinhos in the squad reflects a strategic change by Mais Querido, which seeks to optimize the group's formation and adjust the players' profile to the coach's plans.


CHALLENGES IN THE MARKET FOR THE PLAYER

The refusal of Portuguese clubs highlights the difficulties that some players face in finding new opportunities on the international market. In addition to technical quality, aspects such as age, injury history and tactical profile are taken into account by scouts. In the case of Carlinhos, Flamengocontinues to explore possibilities that are advantageous to both parties, respecting the planning outlined by the technical committee and the board.


With just a few weeks until the transfer window closes, Mengão intensifies efforts to provide closure to the attacker's situation. The club hopes to resolve the case quickly, allowing Carlinhos to be able to play regularly for another team. The case reflects the challenges faced by big clubs like Flamengo when managing extensive and competitive squads, where opportunities for some players end up being limited.
