Flamengo are interested in signing Thiago Almada from Atlético de Madrid (ESP). It’s no surprise, then, that the club’s football director, José Boto, sent a message to the midfielder’s staff, saying he intends to count on the Argentine after the World Cup.
According to ESPN, José Boto is in Europe while the Flamengo squad are on vacation. Therefore, the Rubro-Negro director took the opportunity to contact Thiago Almada’s representatives and made it clear that the club is interested in the player.
Atlético de Madrid, Thiago Almada’s current club, should not stand in the way of a possible departure. That is because the Argentine has been getting limited minutes under Diego Simeone in Spain.
At the moment, Atlético de Madrid are betting on Thiago Almada’s value increasing during the World Cup. That way, in a possible sale, they would be able to recover at least part of the amount invested in the player.
In addition to Flamengo, River Plate have also shown interest in signing Thiago Almada. However, the midfielder will only decide his future after the World Cup with the Argentina national team.
