Flamengo are in negotiations over the potential sale of teenage forward Ryan Roberto following a bid from Shakhtar Donetsk. He was a standout in their Under-20 Libertadores runners-up campaign.

According to Globo.com, the Ukrainian club have tabled an €8 million offer and opened talks to sign the 18-year-old. A move could come in the next transfer window.

Flamengo want to renew his deal, which runs only until March 2027, although limited first-team prospects are a factor.

Football director José Boto is leading the discussions, which will still require approval from president Bap.

Ryan Roberto has made two senior appearances and is currently out of under-20 action while his situation is resolved.

He was first recruited by Athletico-PR’s academy, spent three years in Curitiba, then joined Flamengo in 2023.
