Thiago Almada speaks out on Flamengo, Palmeiras interest | OneFootball

What did Thiago Almada say about inquiries from Palmeiras and Flamengo?

Thiago Almada received inquiries from Flamengo and Palmeiras during this transfer window. Therefore, the former Botafogo player made a point of commenting on the activity in the transfer market.

“There were a lot of rumors during this period. I was calm, focusing on doing my job at the club and showing that I want to stay. I think it’s clear that I will continue at Atlético,” he said after Atlético de Madrid’s (ESP) game in the Champions League.

It’s worth noting that Flamengo only made inquiries about signing Thiago Almada. In other words, the Most Beloved did not make an official offer to Atlético de Madrid for the midfielder. That’s because the focus of the Rubro-Negro is on Lucas Paquetá.

Does Paquetá want to play for Flamengo?

Lucas Paquetá now has returning to Flamengo as his top priority. For this reason, the midfielder is playing hardball and trying to secure a release from West Ham (ENG) to return to Brazilian football this season.

Flamengo has already agreed on all contractual details with Lucas Paquetá. The midfielder has agreed to the salary terms and will sign a four-year contract with the Most Beloved. The focus now is to secure the player's release from West Ham.

Did Flamengo make an offer for Lucas Paquetá?

Flamengo has currently made only one offer for Lucas Paquetá. The Most Beloved intends to pay 35 million euros (R$ 217 million) + 5 million euros (R$ 31 million) in bonuses. However, West Ham rejected the offer and negotiations are ongoing between the clubs.
