HOW WERE THE PROPOSALS FROM CRUZEIRO AND BRAGANTINO?

At the beginning of this month of July, Cruzeiro presented a proposal of 3.5 million euros (R$ 22 million at the time) for 50% of the rights of Matheus Gonçalves. However, the talks did not advance, and the 19-year-old midfielder remained at Flamengo.

Red Bull Bragantino presented a proposal to Flamengo for Matheus Gonçalves in July of last year. The team from Bragança Paulista offered 6 million euros (R$ 36.8 million at the time) for 70% of the player's rights. However, the red-black club did not accept, and the conversation was closed without a conclusion.

WILL MATHEUS GONÇALVES PLAY IN THE NEXT FLAMENGO GAME?
