Série A side eyeing move for ex-Flamengo defender Pablo Marí | OneFootball

Botafogo and Atlético-MG show interest in signing defender Pablo Marí

Another Brazilian club wants to sign Pablo Marí, former Flamengo player. According to Italian journalist Nicolò Schira, Atlético-MG is interested in signing the defender, who currently plays for Fiorentina (ITA). However, the bond between the Italian club and the player ends only in 2027.

In addition to Atlético-MG, Botafogo also approached Pablo Marí in this window. However, the signing is expected to be difficult to materialize, as the defender is not interested in leaving Fiorentina. However, the Italian team does not rule out a transfer.

What is Pablo Marí's situation?

Pablo Marí arrived at Fiorentina last season, coming from Monza (ITA). In this period, the former Flamengo defender played 13 games, without scoring goals or providing assists to his teammates. The Spanish defender also participated in two preseason friendlies against Leicester (ING) and Manchester United (ING).

How was Pablo Marí at Flamengo?

Flamengo signed Pablo Marí in 2019, when he was at Manchester City (ING). The Spanish defender arrived under suspicion from the red-black fans, but soon became a key player in the campaign that earned the titles of Copa Libertadores and Campeonato Brasileiro. There were 30 games, with three goals and one assist.

And Flamengo?

Thus, Pablo Marí's former team, Flamengo, remains focused on the next commitments of the season. This is because the red-black team takes the field on Monday (25), from 9 pm (Brasília time), against Vitória, for the 21st round of the Brasileirão, at Maracanã.
