How much does Atlético de Madrid (ESP) intend to pay to sign João Gomes?


The European transfer window has not opened yet, but clubs are already keeping an eye on possible reinforcements. Atlético de Madrid (ESP) has now moved forward in its attempt to sign João Gomes, formerly of Flamengo.

According to GE, João Gomes, currently at Wolverhampton (ENG), is very close to being sold to Atlético de Madrid for 45 million euros (currently R$ 260 million). Negotiations have progressed significantly, and the sale of the Brazilian midfielder should be finalized soon.

How much could Flamengo receive from João Gomes’ sale?

Flamengo could therefore receive a multimillion-dollar amount from João Gomes’ sale to Atlético de Madrid. That is because the Rubro-Negro club owns 10% of the player’s economic rights, in addition to 4% through FIFA’s solidarity mechanism for being his training club.

Thus, Flamengo could receive around R$ 36 million from the sale of the Ninho graduate to Atlético de Madrid. The expectation is that the deal will be completed before the World Cup.

What about Flamengo?

Flamengo will face Grêmio at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (10) in Porto Alegre. The match, valid for the 15th round of the Brazilian Championship, will be broadcast by Premiere on pay-per-view.
