“Mengo,” Vinicius Júnior posted on Vitão's Instagram post. The defender shared photos in Alagoas, where he is enjoying his vacation. Thus, the star revealed by Flamengo and currently at Real Madrid (ESP) encouraged the new reinforcement of the Most Beloved.

As such, Vinicius Júnior's comment generated great buzz among Flamengo fans. This is because the Nation took the opportunity to enjoy the response from the Cria do Ninho do Urubu, which reached about a thousand likes, being the most engaged response on the post.

IS VITÃO THE NEW REINFORCEMENT FOR FLAMENGO?

After a long dispute and saga with Cruzeiro, Flamengo won the tug of war and closed the signing of the standout defender from Internacional. To complete the purchase, the Most Beloved included the debt related to the Thiago Maia transaction, still from 2024.

Additionally, Flamengo had to add more money to finalize the signing of Vitão. Therefore, the total amount is around 10 million euros (R$ 65.5 million at the current exchange rate) to close the deal with the Porto Alegre club.

WHEN WILL VITÃO ARRIVE AT FLAMENGO?

Flamengo has decided that Vitão will sign the contract only in January. The arrival of the new red-black reinforcement in Rio de Janeiro is scheduled for this Tuesday (30th). With that, the athlete will undergo medical exams and complete the final details.
