Flamengo transfer: Lucas Paquetá’s Premier League stats | OneFootball

Leaving West Ham (ENG), Paquetá will cost Flamengo 42 million euros (R$ 260 million)

Flamengo has signed Lucas Paquetá from West Ham (ENG). Therefore, the Rubro-Negro’s playmaking sector is stepping up a level with the midfielder. That’s because the player stood out mainly for his decisive passes in England.

Paquetá played for four seasons in the Premier League, a championship considered the most competitive in the world. In his first year, for example, the playmaker made 32 key passes leading to shots in 28 league matches.

What are Lucas Paquetá’s numbers in the Premier League?

His creative style, however, is similar to that of Arrascaeta, the current King of America. Therefore, the duo will compete with each other in the stats, which will be good for the team led by Filipe Luís, a former teammate of the new signing in the Brazilian National Team.

How did Flamengo and West Ham negotiate?

Initially, the clubs had agreed on a fee of 41.25 million euros (R$ 256 million). However, the English side did not like the payment plan proposed by the Rubro-Negro. Thus, o Mais Querido increased the offer to 42 million euros (R$ 260 million).

When will Paquetá arrive in Rio de Janeiro?

Paquetá leaves London this Wednesday (28th) and is expected to arrive in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday morning (29th). Then, the player will undergo medical exams and, once approved, will sign a five-year contract with Flamengo.
