Santos eye move for Flamengo idol | OneFootball

Which Flamengo idol is Santos looking to sign?

The 2025 season is still underway, but teams are already starting to plan for 2026. In this context, Santos is already seeking ways to try to sign Gabigol, former Flamengo player and current Cruzeiro striker.

Santos has already shown interest in bringing Gabigol through the athlete’s representatives. However, the team from Baixada Santista is only expected to move forward with negotiations after securing their place in Série A of the Brasileirão 2026.

It’s important to note that Gabigol has not been a starter in Cruzeiro’s matches and, because of this, will talk to the club from Minas Gerais to discuss his future. What is known so far is that, if the striker agrees to play for Santos, he will have to adapt to the current reality of the team. This information comes from ‘ESPN’.

WHAT IS GABIGOL’S SITUATION AT CRUZEIRO?

Gabigol joined Cruzeiro at the beginning of this year with the status of a starter. However, with Kaio Jorge having an above-average season, the former Flamengo player has become an option on the team’s bench. So far, the athlete has played in 43 matches, in which he scored 13 goals and provided four assists.

IS GABIGOL AN IDOL AT FLAMENGO?

Yes! Gabigol is one of the recent idols in the history of Flamengo. That’s because, in addition to collecting titles and breaking records, the striker scored important goals wearing the Sacred Mantle. Among them are the two goals in the Libertadores final against River Plate (ARG), in 2019, in Peru.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO’S NEXT MATCH?

While Gabigol is on Santos’ radar, Flamengo is preparing to face Fluminense this Wednesday (19th), for the 34th round of the Brasileirão. The match kicks off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV will show the details of the classic on YouTube, as well as on their website and social media.
