Matheus Gonçalves is set to become the new Al-Ahli (SAU) player


Matheus Gonçalves is about to leave Flamengo in this transfer window. That’s because Al-Ahli (SAU) made a multimillion-euro offer to the Most Beloved, which was immediately accepted. So, fans want to know: how much will Rubro-Negro receive for the sale of the midfielder?

According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Flamengo will receive a little over 8 million euros (over R$ 50.5 million at the current exchange rate). The expectation is that the deal will be finalized later this week.

Additionally, it’s important to note that Flamengo was about to sell Matheus Gonçalves to CSKA (RUS) for 5 million euros (R$ 31.6 million). However, Al-Ahli appeared ‘at the last minute’ and offered 8 million euros (R$ 50.5 million).

What are Matheus Gonçalves’ numbers at Filipe Luís’ Flamengo?

Matheus Gonçalves, despite having a contract with Flamengo until December 2027, did not get many opportunities in Filipe Luís’ team due to competition. As a result, the midfielder played in only 15 matches, in which he scored two goals.

Will more Flamengo players be sold?

The expectation is that Lorran will also be negotiated in this transfer window. That’s because Pisa (ITA) intends to pay 500 thousand euros (a little over R$ 3 million) to Flamengo for the loan of the midfielder, with a purchase clause of 4 million euros (R$ 25.2 million).
