Santos keeper speaks out on Flamengo interest, sends a clear message | OneFootball

Gabriel Brazão commented that the rumors did not affect his performance on the field

The Flamengo attempted to sign goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão, currently at Santos and one of the standouts in the Brazilian Championship of 2025. This Wednesday (14), after the defeat to Palmeiras in the Paulistão, the goalkeeper commented on the rumors and said they never affected him.

— I have always dedicated myself one thousand percent to Santos, since I arrived here my priority has always been Santos and always will be. I think these rumors, the talks not only about Flamengo, but about other clubs, never affected me because my focus has always been here and will always be here (at Santos) — said Gabriel Brazão, this Wednesday (14).

DID FLAMENGO TRY TO SIGN GABRIEL BRAZÃO?

At the beginning of the season, Flamengo made a list of goalkeepers they were targeting for the rest of the year. Gabriel Brazão, from Santos, was one of the names. However, due to the high asking price from the São Paulo club, the Most Beloved decided not to proceed.

WHO DID FLAMENGO SIGN?

Thus, Flamengo spent 1.5 million euros (R$ 9.4 million at the current exchange rate), plus 10% of a future sale, for the immediate release of Andrew. In this way, Gil Vicente (POR) accepted the offer and released the goalkeeper to sign with the red-black team.

AND NOW, FLAMENGO?

With this, Andrew has already arrived in Rio de Janeiro and is expected to be announced by Flamengo in the coming days. Now, the former goalkeeper of Gil Vicente will compete for a spot with the Argentine Agustín Rossi, who is the starter of the team led by Filipe Luís.
