Flamengo ‘to negotiate’ Ayrton Lucas after World Cup break | OneFootball

Uol Esporte reports that Flamengo intend to negotiate Ayrton Lucas in the transfer window following the World Cup.

The club are heading into the World Cup pause and weighing market options. They have moved towards renewing Alex Sandro’s contract, with the left-back currently at the tournament with Brazil.

Flamengo are also pursuing Kaiki Bruno from Cruzeiro, a move linked to their stance that Ayrton Lucas is negotiable in the next window.

Since Leonardo Jardim arrived, a centre forward remains the top recruitment priority. The club had initially planned to negotiate the Ecuadorian Gonzalo Plata, but his future at Flamengo is now uncertain.

With Ayrton Lucas starting, Flamengo host Coritiba at the Maracanã on Saturday 30 from 16:00 Brasília time, in round 18 of the Brasileirão.
