The return of Lucas Paquetá to Flamengo has reignited the hopes of the Rubro-Negro Nation regarding the comeback of another Ninho academy product: Vinicius Júnior. This Monday (02), during the midfielder’s presentation, director José Boto joked with the player’s staff, who also represent Real Madrid’s number 7 (ESP).

Without Paquetá, this transfer would have been impossible. No matter how financially healthy we are. This shows how much he loves Flamengo. Next, we’ll talk (with the staff) about Vini Jr. When does his contract end, president? We wouldn’t have to pay anything to Real Madrid (laughs), said José Boto.
