Journalist: Flamengo’s transfer window tops 2019 | OneFootball

Flamengo signed four players in the last transfer window

The transfer window in Brazilian football closed last Tuesday (02). As such, Flamengo came out with a positive balance, according to André Rizek, a journalist from SporTV. For the professional, the signings by the Most Beloved surpass those of Botafogo in 2024, the team that won the Brasileirão and the Libertadores.

— I think it’s the most impressive in the history of the points system. It surpasses that of 2019, when they brought in Rafinha, Gerson and Filipe Luís mid-season. And it also surpasses that of Botafogo last year, when they signed Vitinho, Alex Telles, Almada, and Igor Jesus —, began André Rizek.

— This window improves what was already very good: the Flamengo team. Adding the new arrivals to what was already there, Flamengo becomes very strong and I can’t see anything similar to what the club is doing this year —, concluded the journalist, in a video published this Wednesday (03).

WHO DID FLAMENGO SIGN?

Flamengo went to the market and signed Emerson Royal, formerly of Milan (ITA), Jorge Carrascal, formerly of Dynamo Moscow (RUS), as well as two players from Atlético de Madrid (ESP). First, Mengão signed Saúl Ñíguez for free, at no cost. Soon after, the Most Beloved bought Samuel Lino for a club record fee.

HOW IS FLAMENGO DOING?

Thus, with a highly praised transfer window, Flamengo remains alive in the hunt for more titles this season. That’s because the red-black team leads the Brazilian Championship with 47 points. Finally, they are in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores, where they face Estudiantes (ARG).

WHY THE COMPARISON?

Last season, Botafogo went to the market and signed names like Alex Telles, Vitinho, Igor Jesus, and Thiago Almada. In this way, the General Severiano team did well and won the titles of the Brazilian Championship and the Libertadores.
