Luiz Henrique coming? Key day for Flamengo in Libertadores last 16 | OneFootball

What is the deadline for registering players for the Copa Libertadores round of 16?

Flamengo is close to taking the field to face Cruzeiro in the Copa Libertadores round of 16. With the matchups against the Minas Gerais side in mind, this Friday (07) is a crucial day for the Rubro-Negro as it looks to finalize signings.

This deadline is due to Conmebol regulations. Therefore, Flamengo has until 6:00 p.m. (Brasília time) this Friday (07) to register new players for the next stage of the Libertadores. If that does not happen, any player or new signing will only be able to play if Mengo advances further in the competition.

IS FLAMENGO TRYING TO SIGN A PLAYER FOR THE LIBERTADORES ROUND OF 16?

At the moment, Flamengo is working to complete the signing of Luiz Henrique as soon as possible. However, given the way negotiations are progressing, the expectation is that the Rubro-Negro will not succeed in completing the deal before the deadline for player registration with Conmebol.

Before Luiz Henrique, however, Flamengo had also been focused on signing Thiago Almada. But after weeks of “dragging” negotiations involving the midfielder, the Rubro-Negro did not receive a concrete response. At the moment, the tendency is for the Argentine to sign with River Plate (ARG).

WHAT IS THE STATUS OF FLAMENGO'S NEGOTIATIONS WITH LUIZ HENRIQUE?

Even with the Libertadores deadline running out, Flamengo has no intention of giving up on bringing in Luiz Henrique. That is because the Rubro-Negro believes the arrival of the forward would raise the team’s technical level for the rest of the season.
