Name that was targeted by Flamengo in the last window and which could return to Mengão's radar at the beginning of next year to replace Pedro, Deivid Washington has been underutilized at Chelsea. However, in the English club's under-21 squad, he is one of the team's highlights, scoring a great goal this Sunday.
In the match against Brentford, valid for the Premier League Cup, the young Brazilian striker was responsible for a beautiful volley goal, which tied the match at 1-1, before Chelsea came back and won 6-3. Check it out here.
Deivid Washington almost came to Flamengo before Pedro's injury. One of the targets in the middle of the year, he was close to being a reinforcement even before the striker's injury. A 19-year-old center forward, Deivid would arrive to wear the Sacred Mantle on a loan until the end of December 2024, with Rubro-Negro paying most of his salary.
However, a negotiation that seemed right , with Chelsea willing to accept Flamengo's proposal and Deivid Washington interested in playing for the Rio club, was frustrated by a last-minute decision from the English. The London team decided to prioritize direct loan offers from Europe, believing in better experience and preparation, including having already received proposals from Portugal.
A few days later, Pedro would be injured while serving the Brazilian team, and Deivid Washington, who would be an immediate solution, became an option only for next year.
