Flamengo updates: Danilo rejects rift claims, Plata nears Dynamo Moscow move, City Group bid rebuffed | OneFootball

According to Coluna Do Fla, Flamengo's week has been dominated by reaction to the 22 August defeat to Cruzeiro and transfer developments. The team are preparing for the next Brasileirão round amid scrutiny of the dressing-room mood.

The season has swung between highs and lows, with the environment under the microscope. Questions were raised about relations between players and head coach Leonardo Jardim.

Speaking on Thursday 27, Danilo rejected talk of friction with Jardim, saying the claims were made up.

Flamengo are very close to selling Gonzalo Plata in this window, with Dynamo Moscow emerging as his likely destination. Salary and contract length have been agreed between his camp and the Russian club. With the player's approval, Dynamo are preparing to submit a formal proposal to Flamengo.

João Victor, captain and starter for Brazil Under-20s, has received a €10m offer, R$ 60m at current rates, from City Group. Flamengo rejected the bid in recent days.

The senior squad currently lists four centre-backs, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira, Danilo and Vitão. In the last match, João Victor was included because the number four was rested and the ex-Internacional defender is in the medical department.
