So far, Flamengo has announced two reinforcements for the 2026 season. Defender Vitão, formerly of Internacional, and goalkeeper Andrew, formerly of Gil Vicente (POR). This Monday (19th), the Rubro-Negro will present the goalkeeper at a press conference held at Ninho do Urubu.
In summary, the official presentation of Andrew as Flamengo's second reinforcement for the season takes place from 3:30 PM (Brasília time) this Monday (19th). It's worth noting that the goalkeeper has already been integrated into the Rubro-Negro squad.
As usual, the Coluna do Fla team will be present at Andrew's presentation press conference. Additionally, on YouTube, Rubro-Negro fans will be able to follow all the details of the goalkeeper's conversation with the press, live, directly from Ninho do Urubu.
In summary, Andrew signed a four-year contract with Flamengo, meaning until December 2029. Thus, the goalkeeper joins Filipe Luís's team to compete for a position, mainly with Agustín Rossi.
Flamengo offered 1.5 million euros (approximately R$ 9.4 million) + 10% of a future sale for the immediate release of Andrew. With this, Gil Vicente accepted the offer and released the goalkeeper to sign with Rubro-Negro.
It is important to highlight that after the presentation, Flamengo is waiting for Andrew's name to be published in the Daily Information Bulletin (BID) of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). After that, the goalkeeper will be available to Filipe Luís when the professional team debuts in the season.
Andrew was among the highlights of the Portuguese Championship during the 2025-2026 season. Not surprisingly, in November, the 24-year-old goalkeeper won the award for best goalkeeper of the competition for the second consecutive month. This is because, in October, the player also received the award.
The position became one of Flamengo's priorities after the departure of Matheus Cunha to Cruzeiro. Besides Agustín Rossi, Rubro-Negro only had two young players for the position: Dyogo Alves and Léo Nannetti. Therefore, Fla decided to bet on Andrew, who had been standing out in Portuguese football.
