Sporting pay €4m for Flamengo midfielder, future sell-on clause | OneFootball

Frederico Varandas is handling the final details to sign Rayan Lucas from Flamengo. However, the team led by Felipe Luís will retain part of the rights of the Brazilian under-20 international, who has impressed Sporting's management.

According to information reported by the Gazeta do Urubu newspaper, Flamengo will keep 20% of Rayan Lucas in case of a future sale. The same source indicates that the player's purchase should be completed in the coming days, following the payment of 4 million euros.

Despite having made his debut for the A team very recently - in the 5-1 victory over Alverca in the League Cup - Rayan Lucas participated in the pre-season with the main squad of the green and whites and caught the attention of Rui Borges, who has called him to several training sessions.

The young Brazilian was also called up for some matches in the National Championship, although he has not yet come off the bench in Liga Portugal Betclic matches. However, it is likely that he will be introduced during the season.

At the start of this season, Rayan Lucas has already played four matches for Sporting's B team - always as a starter - and one for the main team. In total, he has accumulated 304 minutes under João Gião's command and 13' under Rui Borges.
