The behind-the-scenes battle between Flamengo and Santos for goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão continues to stir up the transfer market. After seeing its first offer rejected in the last transfer window, the Rio de Janeiro club maintains the player as a priority target and is working on a new, more robust offer in January 2026. This information comes from the website 'Moon'.


The deal, publicly confirmed by Brazão himself, promises to be one of the biggest chapters in the national transfer market at the turn of the year. Flamengo's interest will test the club's financial strength against the resistance of its São Paulo rival, who sees the goalkeeper as a key player in their squad.


Gabriel Brazão, 24, is considered one of the most promising goalkeepers in the country . A regular starter for Santos, he stands at 1.92m tall and stands out for his agility, difficult saves, and confident aerial ability. A product of the youth academy at Inter Milan in Italy, Brazão boasts international experience and a unique tactical background.


THE FIRST PROPOSAL

In the last transfer window, the red-and-black club formalized an offer for the goalkeeper . Santos, however, considered the proposed amount insufficient and promptly rejected the offer. Even so, the Rio de Janeiro club's executives indicate that they will return with full force in January, seeking to exceed the São Paulo club's demands.


ROSSI UNTIL 2029

Flamengo now turns its attention to goalkeeper Agustín Rossi. A regular starter, Rossi has the coach's full confidence and represents a key player in the Rubro-Negro's sporting project. According to reports, the board is seeking to extend his contract to ensure stability in the position until 2029.
