Flamengo agreed to sell young attacking midfielder Matheus Gonçalves to Al-Ahli for 8 million euros (around R$50 million). The amount was to be paid upfront, but ended up being split into three annual installments between 2025 and 2027. According to information released by journalist Paparazzo Rubro-Negro, the first installment, scheduled to be paid by last Monday (30), was not deposited.
With the Arab team's delay, Flamengo is considering taking legal action to ensure compliance with the contract. The board fears that the Arab club will not honor its commitments , which could constitute a default.
The situation is concerning for Gávea, which was counting on the funds to bolster its cash flow. If the payment isn't regularized by October 4th, there's a chance the contract will be terminated and Matheus Gonçalves will return to the club.
Although he recently transferred, the player could return to Flamengo if the deal falls through. The board is closely monitoring the player's movements and is in contact with representatives of the player and Al-Ahli.
Teams face each other this Thursday (2), at 8:30 pm, at Maracanã, in a game that could redefine the dispute for the title of the Brazilian Championship
