Almada trains in Ibiza as he weighs Flamengo and River Plate offers | OneFootball

According to Globo.com, Thiago Almada has started training in Ibiza while on holiday as he weighs formal offers from Flamengo and River Plate. Atlético de Madrid is waiting for his final decision to define his departure from Europe.

On Wednesday morning the Argentine posted a photo from a session at Unión Deportiva Ibiza’s stadium. He is in Ibiza with his wife.

Flamengo director of football José Boto returned to Rio on Tuesday after meeting the player’s representative in Argentina, and said the club would not enter a bidding war.

River Plate have offered 20 million euros to Atlético de Madrid, but have faced issues providing the financial guarantees requested. Almada’s family prefer a return to Argentina, though Flamengo’s project and financial strength appealed to his camp and the player signalled positively to the Rio side.

River have renewed their push and also received a yes from Almada, which has held up a final agreement with Flamengo. Neither club has a deal with Atlético, which is awaiting the player’s choice with a preference for Flamengo, but is ready to respect his decision as it has an interest in a sale.
