Flamengo eye move for Argentine Premier League striker | OneFootball

Taty Castellanos arrived at West Ham (ENG) this January

Flamengo is in negotiations with West Ham (ENG) for the signing of midfielder Lucas Paquetá. However, the club is also eyeing another player: Taty Castellanos, a former target who recently joined Lazio (ITA).

According to journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira, Flamengo will try to pursue Taty Castellanos again in the middle of the year. The club's idea is to monitor West Ham's campaign. If they are relegated, Fla will seek the Argentine forward.

WHAT IS THE SITUATION WITH CASTELLANOS AND WEST HAM?

Taty Castellanos joined West Ham this January, when he was bought from Lazio for 29 million euros (R$ 184.2 million at the time). In fact, before signing with the English club, the Argentine striker was a target for Flamengo.

Currently, West Ham is under pressure in the Premier League. This is because the team of Taty Castellanos and Lucas Paquetá has only 14 points in the competition. Currently, they are seven points behind Nottingham Forest (ENG), the first team outside the relegation zone.

AND THE NEGOTIATION WITH LUCAS PAQUETÁ?

Lucas Paquetá met in England this Friday (16). In the meeting, the parties discussed important points of a potential agreement between West Ham and Flamengo. Thus, the clubs may close the deal in the coming hours.
