Flamengo is close to announcing another reinforcement. This is because the Most Beloved agreed, on this Friday (25), to buy Samuel Lino from Atlético de Madrid (ESP) for 22 million euros (around R$ 143 million), with the possibility of an additional 2 million in bonuses for goals. Thus, the attacker becomes the most expensive signing in the history of Rubro-Negro.
Previously, Argentine midfielder Alcaraz held the record, acquired for 20 million dollars (R$ 110.6 million) from Southampton (ING) in 2024. With no space in the squad, he was negotiated with Everton for 15 million euros (R$ 96 million), with possible additional payments of R$ 19 million.
In the Brazilian scenario, however, Lino shares the second position of the most expensive signing with Danilo (Botafogo), both costing R$ 143 million. The first place remains with Vitor Roque, acquired by Palmeiras for 25 million euros (around R$ 164 million) from Barcelona (ESP).
