Flu set sights high in the market, eyeing move for new number 9 | OneFootball

Fluminense is already moving in the transfer market in search of an impactful center forward for the remainder of the season. After negotiations for Hulk cooled off, the Tricolor board intensified their scouting efforts and began targeting high-level players for the number 9 position, which is now considered an absolute priority at the club.

According to reports from journalists Gabriel Amaral and Victor Lessa, Fluminense is working with a budget between 10 and 14 million euros to make the signing possible. In other words, Fluminense would have between R$ 55 million and R$ 77 million to invest in a new number 9. Internally, this amount is seen as sufficient to pursue a player with starter status and the ability to raise the team’s offensive level.

The board’s assessment is that the attacking sector needs a player who comes in to wear the shirt and play, especially with the rest of the season and the competitions the club will still compete in, in mind.

There are still no officially defined names or formalized proposals, but the market analysis work is already underway. The tendency is for Fluminense to move forward only when they identify an opportunity considered ideal within the desired technical and financial profile.
