Santos has signed Gabigol, former Flamengo player, and continues to look for new reinforcements in the transfer market. The next target for the São Paulo team is to sign Michael from Mais Querido.
According to information from the UOL portal, Santos wants to sign Michael on loan, but does not rule out buying the forward outright. Flamengo is currently open to selling the left winger in this transfer window.
Furthermore, Michael also views leaving Flamengo this season positively. This is because the left winger lost his place in the Rubro-Negro squad in 2025 and is looking to get more playing time in 2026.
Michael is even willing to take a pay cut if he is bought by Santos. Therefore, the tendency is for negotiations to progress in the coming days and for the forward to become the newest player on the São Paulo team in 2026.
While negotiating with Santos, Flamengo is focusing on Sunday’s (11th) match against Portuguesa, which marks their debut in the Carioca. The teams will face off starting at 6pm (Brasília time), at Raulino de Oliveira, in Volta Redonda.
