Flamengo is focused on the final stretch of the season, in which it is still competing for the titles of the Brazilian Championship and the Copa Libertadores. However, amid these decisive moments, the name of Argentine forward Paulo Dybala, from Roma (ITA), was rumored at the club. Thus, a source connected to Mais Querido denied the information.
“It makes no sense at all,” said a Flamengo source in response to journalist André Hernan, currently at ESPN Brazil. The Roma player has an active contract and could only leave the Italian team in January, in the middle of the European season.
Furthermore, Flamengo would need to sell players before finalizing the signing of Paulo Dybala. Currently, the red-and-black team has standout players in the same position as the Argentine, such as Bruno Henrique, Samuel Lino, Gonzalo Plata, Luiz Araújo, Michael, Everton Cebolinha, Wallace Yan and Juninho.
Dybala is currently 31 years old and has lost his place in the Roma squad this season. The Argentine forward has played only five matches, starting in two of them, and has not directly contributed to any goals so far.
The player has a contract with Roma until June 2026. Therefore, he could sign a pre-contract with any team starting in January of next year. It is also worth mentioning that the athlete is still in contention to participate in the World Cup.
Meanwhile, the Flamengo squad remains focused on the upcoming challenges of the season. The team led by Filipe Luís faces Racing (ARG) this Wednesday (22), at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals, at Maracanã.
