Plata of Flamengo targeted by two European clubs | OneFootball

Which Flamengo forward is being targeted by two European teams?

European teams continue to keep an eye on the market in search of further strengthening their squads for the remainder of the 2025/26 season. In this context, Gonzalo Plata, a forward from Flamengo, has caught the attention of two clubs from the ‘Old Continent’.

Fenerbahçe (TUR) and Hoffenheim (GER) are the two teams that have shown interest in signing Plata. However, it is worth noting that so far, the clubs have not made an official offer to the Rubro-Negro for the forward. This information is being reported in the Ecuadorian press.

IS PLATA LEAVING FLAMENGO?

It is important to emphasize that Plata has a valid contract with Flamengo until mid-2029. Therefore, unless a favorable offer comes to Mengão, the tendency is for the Ecuadorian to remain in the squad for the start of the 2026 season.

WHAT IS PLATA'S SITUATION AT FLAMENGO?

Plata has experienced both ‘sides of the coin’ at Flamengo. This is because, as soon as he arrived in 2024, the forward quickly won over the fans, as he scored the goal that ‘sealed’ Mengão's title over Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil.

However, in 2025, Plata faced criticism due to off-field controversies and consecutive expulsions at the end of the season. One of these red cards even kept him out of the final of the Libertadores. Amidst this, Filipe Luís gave the athlete a second chance, and he remains available for the World Cup competition.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S NEXT MATCH?

With Plata available, Flamengo faces PSG (FRA) this Wednesday (17) in the Intercontinental final. The match kicks off at 2 PM (Brasília time) in Doha, Qatar. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV will showcase the match details with on-site coverage by Simon Lédo on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media. Finally, Globo (open channel), SporTV (closed), CazéTV, and GETV (YouTube) will broadcast the match.
