Flamengo still keen on Taty Castellanos, Lazio striker | OneFootball

Taty Castellanos, 27-year-old forward, currently plays for Lazio (ITA)

The 2025 season has come to an end and Flamengo is already starting to move in the market in search of reinforcements for 2026. Amidst this, a former target has reappeared in the club’s plans: Taty Castellanos.

Lazio (ITA) striker Taty Castellanos is back on Flamengo’s radar and, in fact, there have already been new talks with the Argentine player’s staff. According to journalist Raisa Simplício from GOAL, Flamengo sought to find out whether the Italian team would be willing to negotiate and if the forward is interested in returning to South America.

Thus, the parties are expected to resume dialogue later this week. It is worth noting that no decision has been made so far.

HAS TATY BEEN ON FLAMENGO’S RADAR BEFORE?

In mid-2025, Flamengo began monitoring Taty Castellanos during the transfer window. The board confirmed to the Coluna do Fla team that they were interested in the striker, but did not make an official offer.

IS FLAMENGO LOOKING FOR A FORWARD?

Flamengo has clear priorities in the transfer market, including a center-back, goalkeeper, and center forward. In the attacking position, the need became even greater after Juninho left the club.

After a season wearing the red-and-black shirt, Juninho was sold for 5 million euros (approximately R$ 32.4 million) to Pumas, of Mexico. The striker’s transfer has already been officially confirmed by the Mexican club.
