Flamengo remains active in the market and, before the start of the season, has moved forward with the signing of goalkeeper Andrew, currently at Gil Vicente (POR). The Most Beloved has reached a verbal agreement on salary terms with the former Botafogo player.
According to journalist Ekrem Konur, goalkeeper Andrew is excited about Flamengo’s offer and wants to close the deal. Thus, the red-and-black club is now negotiating with Gil Vicente, who holds the rights to the goalkeeper.
Andrew has been one of the top goalkeepers in Portuguese football this season. Despite this, the former Botafogo keeper is pressuring Gil Vicente to reach an agreement with Flamengo and finalize the deal soon.
Botafogo is also showing interest in Andrew and still holds 30% of the goalkeeper’s economic rights. The Rio club’s proposal is a four-year contract. Finally, Bahia, Red Bull Bragantino, Milan (ITA), and Brest (FRA) are also keeping an eye on the player.
At the moment, Flamengo has only Agustín Rossi as a goalkeeper in the squad. That’s because Matheus Cunha went to Cruzeiro after his contract ended at the end of last year. With this, the red-and-black club’s idea is to create competition for the Argentine.
