Palmeiras cool on Thiago Almada as Flamengo enquire about midfielder | OneFootball

Does Thiago Almada want to return to playing in South American football?

Palmeiras inquired about signing Thiago Almada, former Botafogo player. However, the São Paulo team did not receive a positive signal from the player during the talks. For this reason, the São Paulo team cooled their interest in purchasing the athlete in this transfer window.

According to information from the portal ‘Nosso Palestra’, Thiago Almada stated that he is not willing to return to South American football at this time. For this reason, Palmeiras no longer sees continuing talks with the player favorably.

Palmeiras, however, does not rule out taking action to sign Thiago Almada in the future. At this moment, the São Paulo team has neither sent nor intends to send a proposal to Atlético de Madrid (ESP) for the athlete.

How much does the Argentine currently cost?

The Argentine world champion with the national team is valued at 35 million euros (R$ 221 million). Flamengo even considered signing Thiago Almada but changed course and now prioritizes signing Lucas Paquetá.

Is Flamengo close to signing Paquetá?

West Ham (ENG) has already agreed to reduce the price to sell Lucas Paquetá to Flamengo. The English team, therefore, expects to receive 45 million euros (R$ 282 million). O Mais Querido will have a meeting with the London team on Friday (16) and the trend is that the negotiation will be finalized positively.
