European club in talks to sign Flamengo player on a free | OneFootball

Shakhtar Donetsk (UKR) seeks a positive outcome with Ryan Roberto

Shakhtar Donetsk (UKR) is negotiating the signing of forward Ryan Roberto from Flamengo. As such, the Ukrainian side could receive positive news and complete the signing of the red-and-black player on a free transfer.

According to information from ESPN Brasil, Ryan Roberto has still not reached an agreement to renew his contract with Flamengo. As a result, Shakhtar Donetsk is trying to sign the 18-year-old player at no cost.

WHAT IS RYAN ROBERTO’S SITUATION?

Therefore, one of the main obstacles to a renewal is the youngster’s lack of space in the first team. The player has not been getting playing time in Leonardo Jardim’s squad, as the coach prioritizes more experienced players.

At the moment, the negotiations are being handled by the youth football department, without direct involvement from the senior side. The absence of top-level executives is seen by Ryan’s camp as a factor making a renewal more difficult.

WHEN DO FLAMENGO PLAY?

While the board negotiates an extension of Ryan Roberto’s contract, Flamengo’s first-team squad remains focused on the upcoming challenges. O Mais Querido takes the field this Sunday (26) to face Atlético-MG away from home in the 13th round of the Brasileirão.
