Ex-Palmeiras player on Flamengo’s new signing: “It’ll be tough…” | OneFootball

Flamengo signed Jorge Carrascal in August, from Dynamo Moscow (RUS)

The Flamengo concluded the transfer window with four signings, the last being the Colombian midfielder Jorge Carrascal, formerly of Dynamo Moscow (RUS). Therefore, according to Zinho, a former player of Mengão, the player will not have enough space due to the great form of Arrascaeta.

“It will be difficult for Carrascal to play. The ‘debochado’ is shining. It's one of the best seasons for Arrascaeta. Among Flamengo's signings, only Carrascal will not be a starter”, said Zinho, a former player of Flamengo, during an ESPN program this Thursday (04).

— Perhaps, in trying to show the quality he has, he ended up losing a lot of space and not creating the situations we imagined for him to be more decisive. We have a very talented player in our squad and we will polish him so that he can become a fan idol in the coming years —, he concluded.

WHEN DID CARRASCAL JOIN FLAMENGO?

The Flamengo completed the signing of Jorge Carrascal at the beginning of last month, when they bought the player from Dynamo Moscow. To conclude the deal with the Russian team, the red-black team shelled out 12 million euros (R$ 77 million at the time's exchange rate).

HAS HE ALREADY PLAYED FOR FLAMENGO?

Since arriving at Flamengo, Jorge Carrascal has played little. This is because the Colombian midfielder has participated in only three games, totaling 70 minutes. During this period, he played twice against Internacional and once against Vitória. He did not score any goals or provide any assists.
