The possibility of Neymar wearing the Flamengo jersey has been gaining traction behind the scenes again this week. With a contract with Santos until the end of June, the star player, who is still recovering from a serious injury , has reportedly been offered to the Rubro-Negro. According to information from journalist Jorge Nicola, the player's representatives are arranging a meeting in Rio de Janeiro with football director José Boto and Filipe Luís, currently on the coaching staff.
According to Nicola, the idea behind Neymar 's transfer would be to make it possible for him to join Santos immediately after his contract with Santos ends . The goal would be to integrate him into the team in time to compete in the Club World Cup. The move has the support of important names in the red-and-black team, such as Alex Sandro and Danilo, who are all positive about the arrival of the number 10.
According to the journalist, José Boto confirmed that Neymar's name was mentioned at the beginning of the year in an internal suggestion , but denied any recent negotiations. A favorable point for the move would be the fact that the athlete has participated in only two matches in the Brazilian Championship , which would make him eligible to defend another club in the same competition.
Rubro-Negro even considered signing Neymar before his return to Santos , but negotiations did not progress at the time. Now, with the end of his contract approaching and the athlete getting closer to physical recovery, the player's name is back on the radar, albeit in a speculative way.
While the future remains uncertain, Neymar is expected to accompany the Santos delegation to Maceió , where the team will face CRB on the 22nd in the Copa do Brasil. The expectation is that the player will play for at least a while, marking his return after the physical transition process.

While the transfer market remains lively, Flamengo did not enter the race for Andreas Pereira, who ended up signing with Palmeiras . The player was speculated about a possible return , but the board determined that his position was not a priority at this time. The decision not to move forward with the signing was approved by Filipe Luís, who understood that it was not the ideal time to invest in the player.
What caught the most attention after the announcement of the deal with Palmeiras was the midfielder's behavior on social media. Andreas deleted the highlight he had about his time with Flamengo , a gesture interpreted by many fans as a way of closing that chapter of his career.
It is worth remembering that the player was marked by the 2021 Libertadores final, when Rubro-Negro was defeated by Palmeiras 2-1. The decisive moment was a mistake by Andreas, which ended up resulting in the title goal for the São Paulo team.
If Andreas Pereira already has a defined destination, another name is stirring up the backstage at Gávea: Lucas Paquetá . A product of the youth teams, the midfielder was once again the subject of speculation this Friday (29), on social media.
The movement gained momentum after president Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as BAP, published a video celebrating the definitive purchase of the Gasômetro land and sending a message to fans: “ Nation, let's go for more, the window isn't over yet, ” said the director in a recording shared on social media.
The club's president's statement about new signings and the former player's cryptic post increased rumors about the number 10's possible return.

The name of Lucas Paquetá, a product of Flamengo's youth academy , once again stirred up fans this Friday (29). Speculation gained momentum after president Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as BAP , stated that the club will still be making moves in the market before the window closes.
" Nation, let's go for more, because the window isn't over yet, " the director said in a video posted on social media shortly after the Gasômetro land purchase was confirmed. Many fans interpreted the statement as a sign of a major reinforcement.
On the same day, Paquetá published a message that generated even more comments: “ Where I come from, everyone knows what it’s like🎶 ,” he wrote, quoting an excerpt from a pagode song by the group Clareou.
The post was quickly associated with the player's long-standing affection for the club and the possibility of reviving his history with Mengão . Despite this, football sources indicate that the signing is unlikely this summer.
West Ham , the midfielder's current club, has shown no interest in negotiating the player for less than £30 million, approximately R$270 million . The amount is considered unrealistic for the Brazilian market at the moment.

Midfielder Gustavo Cuéllar is expected to start for Grêmio in the match against Flamengo this Sunday (31), at 4 pm (Brasília time), for the Brazilian Championship. Before the reunion at Maracanã, the Colombian player returned to comment on the episodes that marked his departure from Rubro-Negro in 2019.
During an interview with the program Assado Para... on Duda Garbi's Channel, Cuéllar revealed details of the turbulent time he experienced five years ago. " It wasn't a pleasant departure at the time. It was turbulent. They even took me off before the match against Internacional (in the Libertadores quarterfinals), and I was out for a few days, without even training. It was difficult," said the midfielder.
The player stated that his initial desire was to play for Bologna in Italy, but the Mais Querido management vetoed the transfer. " Marcos Braz presented me with the offer from Saudi Arabia, and it was the financial solution for my life and my family. In the middle of this negotiation, which I had already accepted, an offer arrived from Bologna in Italy. The amount was lower, but I had the dream of playing in Europe. And Flamengo didn't accept it," said the Colombian.
After being sidelined for almost 20 days, Cuéllar said he was called up again to play in the second leg against Internacional, in the quarterfinals of the 2019 Libertadores. “I wanted to go to Italy, but Flamengo denied it and took me away,” he said before adding.
"The Arabs even increased their offer, and since I was away, I ended up accepting. I didn't train for 20 days; I couldn't go to the club. Then, in the second game against Inter in the Libertadores, Flamengo asked me to play, saying I could leave later. I felt used ," he declared.
