Flamengo continues to invest in its base promises. This time, the club announced the renewal of the contract of one of the under-17's highlights, a young midfielder who has been attracting attention for his high-level performances. The new contract, valid until 2029, includes a termination fine worth 70 million euros, approximately R$426 million, making it one of the team's biggest bets in the transfer scenario.


This renewal is significant for Flamengo, which has reinforced its strategy of valuing the youth categories in recent years. This is the player's second professional contract with the club, the first was signed last year, shortly after the athlete turned 16. The above-average performance in the under-17 team prompted the club to renew the contract and considerably increase the termination fine, ensuring greater security in possible future negotiations.


FLAMENGO IS SAFE BEHIND THE SCENES


The midfielder in question was already being monitored by major international clubs, and Flamengo, aware of his potential, chose to shield the athlete with a high fine. The club's idea is to avoid an early exit, allowing the player to develop further and possibly move up to the main squad in the coming years. Flamengo has adopted this policy for promising young players, seeking to ensure that their talents are well utilized on the field before any possible transfer.

A TOTALLY DIFFERENT CAST


In addition to the high value of the fine, the contract until 2029 demonstrates the confidence that Flamengo has in the athlete's development. The club hopes that, with more time to develop, the midfielder will become one of the pillars of the first team in the future. This renewal is part of Flamengo's larger strategy, which involves not only retaining young talents, but also strengthening the club's image as one of the main trainers of athletes in Brazil.

With the renewal, the young player remains focused on his goals within the under-17s, where he has been a fundamental player in the competitions that Flamengo competes in. He already accumulates important titles at the base, which only increases expectations about his future. The fans, who always closely follow the club's promises, also celebrate the renewal, trusting that he will be another talent to shine in the red and black shirt.
