The soap opera between De la Cruz and Flamengo seemed to have come to an end. Unfortunately for Flamengo, a tragic ending, as the red-black failed to hire the midfielder from River Plate, Argentina. This is because the Buenos Aires team did not want to sell the player to a South American rival, even more so in the middle of the Libertadores dispute. However, the player seems to be interested in the red-black and even a proposal from the Middle East, he denied.
According to information from youtuber Fla Lusquinhos, Nicolás De la Cruz rejected the second contract offer from Al Duhail, from Qatar. The club continues to try to seduce the Uruguayan, but the economic margin of the proposal is starting to shrink more and more. But the reason, still according to the youtuber, is that the Uruguayan midfielder is waiting for
Flamengo for the next transfer window, which would be in January.
It is worth remembering that De La Cruz is preferred from Sampaoli. Flamengo, at the time, was to increase the proposal for the Uruguayan midfield. Rubro-negro had offered around 7.5 million euros for 50% of the player's rights, which belongs half to River and half to Liverpool, from Uruguay. In this sense, the Argentine club only wanted to release the amount of the fine, of 16 million euros.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.
