Santos is committed to bringing in a fast forward to fill the spot left by Guilherme. A new target emerges as an option at Vila Belmiro: Michael, from Flamengo, according to information from UOL.
The Santos board is discussing the details of the business model, with an initial preference for a loan agreement, although the option of a permanent purchase is not entirely ruled out.

The arrival of Michael is seen as an alternative for Santos' attack, especially considering the situation of Rony from Atlético-MG. The uncertainty at the Minas Gerais club regarding the deal makes Santos seek other alternatives in the market.
At Flamengo, Michael has had few opportunities to play, and the Rio de Janeiro club does not impose barriers to a possible negotiation. Since returning to Brazilian football in 2024, he has played 45 games, with 6 goals and 5 assists.
At Santos, Michael may reunite with an old acquaintance: Gabigol, with whom he played at Flamengo between 2020 and 2021.
