WHAT WAS FLAMENGO'S THIRD PROPOSAL FOR KAIO JORGE?

On Thursday (8th), Flamengo presented the third proposal for Kaio Jorge valued at 30 million euros (R$ 188 million at the current exchange rate). Even so, the figures remain below the amount demanded by Cruzeiro. However, the clubs continue to negotiate.

Flamengo had already made two proposals to Cruzeiro for Kaio Jorge. On those occasions, the red-black club included the forward Everton Cebolinha as part of the deal. However, both were rejected by the Minas Gerais team.

WHAT IS FLAMENGO'S CURRENT SITUATION?

At the moment, Flamengo only has Pedro for the forward position. This is because the red-black club sold Juninho to Pumas (MEX) after the Club World Cup and subsequently loaned Carlinhos to Remo until the end of 2026.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Thus, Flamengo now turns its attention to the debut in the Campeonato Carioca. The Most Beloved faces Portuguesa-RJ on Sunday (11th) at 6 PM (Brasília time) at the Raulino de Oliveira Stadium. Thus, Coluna do Fla brings all the information about the match.
