Which player is Fluminense targeting?

The transfer window is about to close, so clubs are making their final moves in search of reinforcements. At this moment, Fluminense is close to finalizing the signing of Rodrigo Castillo from Lanús (ARG), who has been a nemesis for Flamengo.

According to journalist César Luis Merlo, Fluminense is expected to pay around 10 million dollars (R$ 52 million) to Lanús for the striker. The team from Laranjeiras intends to acquire 100% of the player's economic rights.

Castillo started for Lanús in both matches against Flamengo in the Recopa Sudamericana. The striker scored two of the four goals the Argentine team netted against the Most Beloved.
