Flamengo remains attentive to the talents in its youth categories. In this situation, the club's management acted quickly and renewed the contract with defender Daniel Thuram from the under-17 team.
According to information provided by ‘Flazoeiro’, Flamengo extended Daniel Thuram's contract until March 2028. Additionally, the defender's release clause for foreign clubs was set at 50 million euros, which is over R$ 300 million at the current exchange rate.
Thuram's new contract came into effect before the defender traveled with his teammates to Ecuador, where Flamengo is aiming for the under-20 Libertadores championship. It is important to note that the defender was a starter for the Rubro-Negro in the match against Independiente de Medellín (COL).
Yes! In the match between Flamengo and Madureira, Filipe Luís gave Daniel Thuram his first opportunity with the professional team. On that occasion, the defender came on towards the end of the 8-0 victory for Mengão, replacing Léo Ortiz.
With Daniel Thuram available, Flamengo managed to finish the first phase of the under-20 Libertadores undefeated. Thus, the young talents from Ninho advanced to the knockout stage, finishing first in Group A.
Flamengo is now preparing for the first knockout match. This Thursday (19th), the Rubro-Negro faces Olímpia (PAR) in the semifinal of the under-20 Libertadores. The match kicks off at 4 PM (Brasília time) at Banco Guayaquill, in Ecuador. In this way, Coluna do Fla provides details of the match on the website and social media. Finally, Flamengo TV, on YouTube, broadcasts the match.
