Santino Andino is Close to Playing in Greece


The transfer market is ‘boiling’ and several players are being linked to Flamengo, whether in the Brazilian or foreign press. One of the names mentioned in connection with Mengão in recent weeks was the young Argentine Santino Andino, from Godoy Cruz (ARG). However, the 20-year-old wants to play in Greece.

According to the newspaper ‘Olé’, Andino wishes to play for Panathinaikos (GRE), one of the clubs that have shown interest in the player, in addition to Flamengo and River Plate (ARG). Still according to the portal, Mengão had not yet sent a proposal, despite their interest. Meanwhile, the runner-up of the 2019 Libertadores pleased Godoy Cruz with the values presented, but the player was not excited.

IS FLAMENGO LOOKING FOR A FORWARD?

This Friday (09), the football director of Flamengo emphasized that the attack is not a priority. According to the Portuguese director, the focus in the market is on the goalkeeper position and also on defense. The latter, however, has been addressed with the signing of Vitão, who was presented at Ninho do Urubu.
