Benfica join Flamengo in race to sign Internacional centre-back | OneFootball

Which Internacional defender is on Flamengo's radar?

Flamengo is interested in signing Vitão, a defender from Internacional. However, to secure the defender's addition, the Most Beloved will have to outbid Benfica (POR).

According to information from GE, Benfica has shown interest in signing Vitão for the remainder of the 2025/2026 season. The defender has a contract until the end of 2026 and, at the moment, does not intend to renew with the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

How much does Internacional want for Vitão?

Currently, Internacional holds 80% of Vitão's economic rights. Thus, the team from Rio Grande do Sul has requested 10 million euros (approximately R$ 63 million at the current exchange rate) to sell the defender in the next transfer window.

Flamengo, however, does not intend to pay R$ 63 million to Internacional for Vitão. This is because the defender is close to having his contract with the team from Rio Grande do Sul expire and could sign a pre-agreement in June.

When is Flamengo's next match?

Amidst the search for reinforcements, Flamengo is focusing on the match against Pyramids (EGY) for the Intercontinental. The game is scheduled for Saturday (13), at 2 PM (Brasília time), with broadcast by Rede Globo on open channel, and by CazéTV and GETV, both on YouTube.
