Wesley is leaving Flamengo. After weeks of negotiations, the right-back was sold to Roma (ITA). With an agreement finalized with the Italian club, the player received clearance from the Rubro-Negro. This Friday, the young athlete posted a farewell message on social media.
It was intense years of struggle, achievements, learning, and growth. Flamengo gave me the chance to live the dream of millions. I leave with a heart full of gratitude and the certainty that I gave my best. Thank you for everything, Nation. Uh tererê, I'm Flamengo until I die. SRN,” he wrote.
Roma will pay 25 million euros (R$ 162 million) to sign Wesley. Additionally, the amount could reach 30 million euros (R$ 194 million) if the player meets the targets set in the contract. Revealed by Flamengo, the right-back played 139 matches, scored four goals, and provided six assists. After an unstable start, the athlete gained the fans' trust and has since established himself as a key player under the command of Filipe Luís.
To fill Wesley's departure, Flamengo completed the signing of Emerson Royal. Thus, the rubro-negro club spent 9 million euros (about R$ 58 million) for the 26-year-old right-back. Emerson arrives in Brazil this Saturday (26) to undergo medical exams and sign a three-and-a-half-year contract.
Not at all! Emerson Royal is the second signing of Flamengo in this transfer window. Previously, the club had already signed Saúl Ñíguez at no cost. Additionally, this Friday (25), Mengão also secured the signing of forward Samuel Lino.
