Since becoming a starter in the second phase, the boy has become a key player in the team's strategies. The next challenge? Face Aster, this Friday, in the quarterfinals. Expectations are high, after all, Weliton has already performed against Osasco Audax, Náutico and São José, where he made the network shake twice.


The story of this rising star also caught the attention of the Tite's coaching staff, who spared no praise and, rumor has it, even asked for Weliton's loan to be extended. It seems that the boy won not only the fans, but also the heart of the Brazilian team coach. The contract, which would initially end at the end of January, gained another six months, and at the end of that period, Mengão has the chance to guarantee Weliton permanently.


But, as the saying goes, "nothing is for free", and Flamengo will have to open its coffers if it wants to call Weliton its own. Around R$1 million for 50% of the economic rights is the stipulated price to acquire the attacker. If you want to have 70% of this talent, the investment goes to R$1.5 million. Money well spent, considering the kid's potential.


And Juventude, the star's home club, is also keeping an eye on the valorization of its pupil. Even if Flamengo decides to take Weliton to Gávea permanently, the team from Rio Grande do Sul will still have a slice of the pie, with a view to future transfers. A negotiation that appears to be advantageous for all sides.

Before arriving in Gávea, Weliton was already making waves at Juventude. In 2022, he was the top scorer in the Campeonato Gaúcho under-20, with an impressive 11 goals in 11 matches. The highlight was so much that he had the chance to train with professionals, participating in the Brazilian Aspirants Championship and even playing a few minutes against Avaí in Série A.


What we have left is to look forward to the next steps of this rising talent. Weliton is proof that, when the ball rolls, the emotion goes beyond the numbers. Flamengo has in its ranks a player who promises to make a difference and continue to make the Rubro-Negra Nation proud. May more goals come and may Weliton's story be written in golden letters in the hearts of the fans.
