Atlético-MG has not given up on signing forward Luiz Araújo from Flamengo and is once again turning its attention to trying to reach a possible agreement. The Belo Horizonte club will seek a positive outcome again in the next transfer window.

According to influencer Guilherme Frossard, who covers Atlético-MG, the Belo Horizonte side remains focused on Luiz Araújo and will make an offer for the player. The player’s agent says the winger has been playing less than expected.

Even so, Leonardo Jardim has asked for Luiz Araújo to stay at Flamengo in recent months. However, the 29-year-old winger’s playing time could influence a possible departure from the red-and-black club in the coming months.

WHAT IS LUIZ ARAÚJO’S SITUATION?

Luiz Araújo is under contract with Flamengo until December of next year. This season, the winger has played 20 matches, scoring three goals and providing two assists for his teammates.

It is worth mentioning that Luiz Araújo featured in practically every Flamengo match last season. Under Filipe Luís, the winger played 68 matches, scoring 13 goals and providing nine assists.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Meanwhile, Luiz Araújo remains focused with the Flamengo squad on the upcoming matches. With that, the red-and-black team takes the field this Thursday (07) against Independiente Medellín (COL), away from home, in the Copa Libertadores.

Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the information about the match live from the stadium, with Mônica Alves, starting at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time). Finally, ESPN, on cable TV, and Disney+, via streaming, will broadcast Flamengo’s match.
