Flamengo is about to add the ninth foreign player to the current squad. This is because Colombian Jorge Carrascal arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday (30) to close with the Most Beloved. However, the midfielder is not the first Colombian player to wear the Sacred Mantle.
In fact, Carrascal will be the eighth Colombian in Flamengo's history and the 118th in the history of the Brazilian Championship, according to data from the Transfermarkt website. In addition to another foreigner, the midfielder is the fourth reinforcement for the red and black team in this transfer window, which ends on September 2.
2010 – Cristian Martínez – seven games; 2015 – Pablo Armero – five games; 2016 – Gustavo Cuéllar – 167 games; 2017 – Orlando Berrío – 81 games; 2018 – Marlos Moreno – 35 games; 2018 – Fernando Uribe – 37 games; 2020 – Richard Ríos – seven games; 2025 – Jorge Carrascal – ?.
In addition to Carrascal, however, Flamengo has the foreigners Arrascaeta, Nicolás de la Cruz, Matías Viña, Guillermo Varela, Agustín Rossi, Gonzalo Plata, Erick Pulgar, and Saúl Ñíguez. Despite defending the Italian national team, Jorginho was born in Brazil and therefore does not enter the list of foreigners.
According to a survey by the report, Flamengo will pay 12 million euros (approximately R$ 77.1 million) to Dynamo Moscow (RUS) for the signing of Carrascal until 2029. Previously, however, the Russian club asked for a bonus to close the sale, but the Red and Black team played hard and convinced the Russian team.
