Varela is one of the players who has a chance to leave Mengão. With many entries in this transfer window, it is normal for some athletes to be sold and the team intends to give up Varela. However, one of the clubs interested in him has already backed out.
Peñarol recently approached Flamengo regarding right-back Guillermo Varela. However, according to information reported by 'Coluna do Fla', they have already given up on the endeavor. The team director said he was not pleased with the terms presented by Flamengo. They were willing to buy him but not with the deal offered.
Mengão, thus, continues in the attempt to sell Varela, who has a contract until 2025. The Paraguayan player has not participated so much in the field, which does not add much to the team. Since the 11th of June he has not entered a match. Since Wesley fit well into the right-back position, he's been in the starting line-up, not leaving much room for Guillermo.

The negotiation that would have sent Flamengo striker Matheus Gonçalves to Cruzeiro collapsed in the last few hours and is unlikely to happen again. The Rio de Janeiro club decided not to sell the young player after negative internal reactions and a large portion of its fans on social media.
The transfer was on track by the weekend. The Minas Gerais club would pay €3.5 million (R$22 million) to acquire 50% of the player's economic rights. Matheus Gonçalves would arrive in Belo Horizonte to be another option for the Celeste side. This is a special request from Leonardo Jardim during the transfer window.
BUSINESSMEN WILL TRY TO MAKE FLA CHANGE ITS MIND
The veto on Matheus Gonçalves' sale didn't come from Flamengo 's football department. It came from president Bap. In fact, Flamengo's football department never participated in the negotiations. The conversations were always between presidents (Bap and Pedro Lourenço). Matheus Gonçalves' agents will try to reverse the situation, as the player had already agreed and was excited about the transfer.
WITH THE WORD.....
"I was surprised, I wasn't aware of that ( Flamengo gave up on selling). What I was aware of was that BAP and Pedrinho were aligned in the negotiation. If Flamengo doesn't want to sell me, I'll work hard to have opportunities with Filipe Luis," said Matheus Gonçalves.
"Garoto do Ninho", Matheus Gonçalves made his debut for Flamengo's professional team in October 2022, being loaned to Bragantino in 2023. Since Filipe Luís took over as coach of the red-black team, in September last year, the young striker has been used on 21 occasions.
However, Matheus Gonçalves has been losing ground in Flamengo's core squad. The striker's last appearance was in May, in the Copa do Brasil match against Botafogo-PB, when Flamengo played with an alternate team.
Due to the few opportunities, the athlete made a request to Filipe Luís to return to the under-20s, in order to accumulate more minutes on the field. Last Thursday (11), Matheus scored two goals in the draw between Flamengo and Botafogo, for the Brazilian Championship of the category.

Flamengo chose to reject a €3.5 million (approximately R$22.5 million) offer from Cruzeiro for the signing of young Matheus Gonçalves. The decision, which came directly from president Bap, surprised some fans and the player himself.
The rejection of the offer did not involve the club's football department, according to journalist Venê Casagrande. " The veto on the sale of Matheus Gonçalves did not come from Flamengo's football department. It came from president Bap. In fact, at no point did Flamengo's football department participate in the negotiations. The conversations were always 'president to president (Bap with Pedro Lourenço),'" Casagrande posted on social media.
PLAYER REACTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Shortly after learning of the decision, Matheus Gonçalves shared a video from the anime Naruto on his Instagram profile . In the chosen scene, one of the characters appears crying, which sparked speculation among Mengão fans. The prevailing interpretation was that the athlete expressed frustration with the club's refusal to allow him to leave.
The timing of the post also drew attention, as it was published moments before Matheus entered the field for the Rio de Janeiro club's Under-20 team , in the duel against Atlético-MG, for the Brazilian Championship in the category.
CRUZEIRO KEEPS AN EYE ON MATHEUS
Despite the initial rejection, Cruzeiro has not ruled out the possibility of submitting a new offer. Internally, the Minas Gerais club believes that Matheus Gonçalves can add technical and commercial value to the squad led by Fernando Seabra. Flamengo, on the other hand, maintains its policy of valuing promising academy players and only considers negotiations that align with its medium- and long-term sporting and financial objectives.

Fluminense is racing against time to have a major reinforcement for the next match against Flamengo, scheduled for this Sunday (20), for the Brasileirão . The rival from Laranjeiras has finalized the details for the return of striker John Kennedy, who was on loan to Pachuca-MEX and is working behind the scenes to regularize the player's situation in time for Fla-Flu.
AGAINST TIME
According to "ge", the tricolor board met with representatives of the Mexican club on Monday morning (14) and sealed the agreement to terminate the loan , already announced by the Mexican club. To count on the early return of the striker, whose contract in Mexico would run until the end of the year, Fluminense will pay financial compensation.
PLAYER WAS HERO IN THE LIBERTADORES TITLE
According to journalist Victor Lessa, John Kennedy is expected in Rio de Janeiro in the coming days to report back to coach Renato Gaúcho. Upon his arrival, the club will begin the final phase of the paperwork, which involves registering with the CBF's Daily Information Bulletin (BID).
In order to be legally eligible to take the field on Sunday, his name must be published in the system by next Friday (18). The striker's return comes just over six months after moving to Mexican football, where he rose to prominence. Wearing the number 10 shirt for Pachuca, John Kennedy scored nine goals and provided one assist in 12 matches, quickly winning over the local fans with his decisive performances.
The player was even included in the squad for the Mexican team's match last Sunday, but was cut due to advanced negotiations for his return to Fluminense.
This isn't the first time Fluminense has loaned a player out and then successfully re-signed him the same year. In 2023, after playing in the Campeonato Paulista for Ferroviária, John Kennedy returned to the club and became a key player in the campaign that culminated in the Libertadores title, scoring the decisive goal in the final.
Before next Sunday's classic, at 7:30 pm (Brasília time), Flamengo and Fluminense play in the middle of the week. The current Rio champion faces Santos, on Wednesday (16), at 8 pm, at Vila Belmiro. The defeated team in the State final faces Cruzeiro, on Thursday (17), at 7:30 pm, at Maracanã, which can help Mais Querido in the table, since the Minas Gerais club has the same number of points, with one more game.
