Flamengo is trying to sign Lucas Paquetá as early as January, to strengthen the squad for the 2026 season. Amidst this, the former Flamengo player, who currently plays for West Ham (ENG), has turned down three offers from Premier League clubs.
According to information from English journalist Graeme Bailey, Lucas Paquetá rejected offers from Chelsea (ENG), Aston Villa (ENG), and Tottenham (ENG). The reason is that the Brazilian National Team midfielder only wants to transfer to Flamengo.
Flamengo has already sent the first offer to West Ham. The club offered 40 million euros (R$ 250 million at the current exchange rate). Lucas Paquetá has already accepted the contractual terms of Mengão.
According to a report by Coluna do Fla, West Ham is asking for 60 million euros (R$ 376 million at the current exchange rate) to negotiate Lucas Paquetá. Thus, Flamengo is working to lower the asking price. The teams will meet in the coming days.
Lucas Paquetá did not train with West Ham this Tuesday (13) and has already communicated his desire to return to Flamengo. The idea of the player, who was developed at Mais Querido, is to return to Brazil to play in the 2026 World Cup.
