Flamengo faces Internacional this Wednesday (04)

Flamengo continues its pursuit in the Brazilian Championship focusing on the match against Internacional on Wednesday (04). It is worth noting that the match will mark Lucas Paquetá's return to the sacred ground of Maracanã.

Since returning to Flamengo, Lucas Paquetá has played in only one match: against Corinthians, in the Supercopa do Brasil, on Sunday (01). However, the match took place at the Mané Garrincha Stadium in Brasília.

Now, Paquetá will have the opportunity to officially reunite with the Flamengo fans at home, in Maracanã. On Wednesday (04), the midfielder is expected to gain more minutes on the field with the Sacred Mantle.

How was the negotiation for the player?

After long weeks of negotiation, Flamengo reached an agreement with West Ham (ENG) to sign Lucas Paquetá. Thus, to 'bring back' the Ninho's prodigy, the Rubro-Negro will pay 42 million euros (R$ 260 million).

Of the 42 million euros agreed in the deal, Flamengo will pay 15.250 million euros (about R$ 94.545) upfront to West Ham. Additionally, the remaining (26.75 million euros, or R$ 165.84 million) will be paid in four installments until the year 2028.

And now?

Now, with Paquetá available, Flamengo faces Internacional this Wednesday (04). The teams will clash starting at 7 PM (Brasília time) at Maracanã, in a match valid for the second round of the Brasileirão.
