Ryan Roberto sale ‘could bring’ R$ 58.79m, Flamengo keep 10% in Shakhtar deal | OneFootball

According to Coluna Do Fla, 18-year-old forward Ryan Roberto has accepted an offer from Shakhtar Donetsk worth up to €10 million, about R$ 58.79 million.

He leaves Flamengo's academy after 34 goals and 14 assists in 88 appearances across the under-13, under-15, under-16, under-17 and under-20 teams.

He came through a community project at Paulistinha, spent four years with Athletico-PR from 11 to 14, then joined Flamengo in 2023 via recruitment chief Thiago Rocha.

In 2024 he was the youngest member of Flamengo's Copinha squad and scored on debut against Cruzeiro-PB in a 5-0 win.

He won the Copa Rio under-17 in 2024 under Filipe Luís. He also took the Campeonato Carioca under-17 that year, then repeated the Copa Rio in 2025.

In 2025 he helped Flamengo win the under-20 world title. He also made two Campeonato Carioca group appearances for the senior side without scoring.

In the 2026 Libertadores under-20 he led goal involvements with four direct contributions, though Flamengo did not lift the trophy.

After declining a new deal, he was left out of under-20 games, with a free exit in mid-2027 or a paid 2026 move the options.

Shakhtar's package is €9.5 million fixed, about R$ 56.31 million, plus €0.5 million in bonuses, about R$ 2.96 million, for 90% of his rights, Flamengo keeping 10%.
