Besiktas want Agustín Rossi, is he leaving Flamengo? | OneFootball

The Argentine goalkeeper is a serious target for Besiktas, which has already begun formal talks to explore the possibility of signing him.

Agustín Rossi, Flamengo’s undisputed first-choice goalkeeper, is being closely monitored by Turkey’s Besiktas, which has already started formal discussions to secure his services. As a result, the Turkish club quickly took the lead and is now the favorite to sign the Argentine keeper. It is worth noting that his contract in Brazil runs until December 2027.

The former Boca goalkeeper arrived on the beaches of Rio in mid-2023, after a brief loan spell at Saudi Arabia’s Al Nassr (Cristiano Ronaldo’s team), following a controversial departure from Xeneize. Flamengo did not spend a single dollar on him, since he had previously signed a pre-contract, which meant he joined the club as a free agent.

Just a few months later, he made history at Mengao, becoming the goalkeeper with the longest unbeaten streak: he went 1,134 consecutive minutes without conceding a goal, comfortably surpassing the 959 minutes set by Antônio Luiz Cantarele between November 1978 and February 1979. The Argentine’s run began in December 2023 and lasted until April 2024.

With an outstanding present and more than 172 appearances in a Flamengo shirt, his market value is estimated at USD 10 million, according to Transfermarkt. So it will not be an easy negotiation for Besiktas.
