West Ham (ENG) and Flamengo are close to reaching an agreement for Lucas Paquetá

Flamengo continues to hold advanced negotiations with West Ham (ENG) for the signing of midfielder Lucas Paquetá. As a result, the red-and-black team is already working behind the scenes to announce the Brazilian national team player.

According to information from journalist Venê Casagrande, it is only a matter of time before Flamengo announces the signing of midfielder Lucas Paquetá. Therefore, the red-and-black club is expected to make the signing official very soon.

HOW MUCH WILL FLAMENGO PAY FOR LUCAS PAQUETÁ?

At this moment, Flamengo has already agreed on the exact amount it will pay West Ham for Lucas Paquetá. Thus, Mengão will shell out 41.25 million euros (R$ 256 million at the current exchange rate) for the player who was developed at the club itself.

A large part of the R$ 256 million will be paid to West Ham upfront. Finally, the remainder of the transfer fee will be paid in installments over 18 months, as agreed between the parties. Lucas Paquetá will sign a five-season contract with Mengão.

WHAT DOES FLAMENGO WANT?

Flamengo wants Lucas Paquetá to be available for the Supercopa do Brasil next Sunday (1st). That’s because the team, led by Filipe Luís, will face Corinthians at Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, at 4pm (Brasília time).

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

However, before thinking about Corinthians, Flamengo faces another team from São Paulo: São Paulo FC, but this time for the Brazilian Championship. O Mais Querido will go up against their rivals this Wednesday (28th), at 9:30pm (Brasília time), at Morumbi, for the opening round of the Brasileirão.
