Flamengo reject Krasnodar's big-money bid for Jorge Carrascal | OneFootball

Jorge Carrascal is under contract with Flamengo until 2029

The transfer window remains open and, while Flamengo looks for reinforcements in the market, the board also has to deal with approaches from foreign clubs for players in the current squad. The latest target was midfielder Jorge Carrascal.

According to journalist Raisa Simplicio, the Rio club turned down a €7 million bid (around R$41 million at the current exchange rate) from Russia’s Krasnodar for the player. Flamengo’s hierarchy considered the amount too low and ruled out any possibility of a deal without even opening talks.

The 28-year-old midfielder was signed by Flamengo in August 2025 from Russian side Dynamo Moscow. At the time, the Russian club received €12 million for the player’s release, who is currently under contract with Flamengo until 2029.

WHAT ARE CARRASCAL’S NUMBERS IN 2026?

This season, the Colombian has made 35 appearances in Flamengo’s shirt and scored five goals. Although he is not an undisputed starter under coach Leonardo Jardim, the midfielder is used frequently and is going through a period of growth on the pitch.

His good form was evident in Flamengo’s last match against Botafogo in the Brasileirão. On that occasion, the player came on late in the game, found the net and also provided an assist in the 3-0 win in the derby.

In addition to his performances for the Rio club, Carrascal was part of Colombia’s squad at the 2026 World Cup. However, the player was not used by coach Néstor Lorenzo during the tournament and remained on the bench.
