Flamengo set top priority for next transfer window | OneFootball

Flamengo should invest in a big-name signing to rotate the number 9 role with Pedro

The international transfer window closed on March 3. However, this Friday (27), the domestic transfer market also comes to an end. With the next market opportunities in mind, Flamengo has already established what its top priority will be.

After the arrival of Leonardo Jardim, Flamengo still has a center forward as its top signing priority for the next transfer window. After all, the Most Beloved wants to negotiate the departure of Ecuadorian Gonzalo Plata, who has been involved in repeated disciplinary issues.

It is worth noting that Flamengo had already listed the position as a priority since Filipe Luís’ time. However, on that occasion, the Most Beloved chose to move ahead with other signings first, such as a goalkeeper, a center back, and a midfielder.

What signings did Fla make in the 1st window?

In short, in the first transfer window of 2026, Flamengo signed goalkeeper Andrew, center back Vitão, and attacking midfielder Lucas Paquetá. As a result, in the next transfer period, the Most Beloved will go after a center forward.

Total: R$ 334.4 million

When does the next window open?

It is important to note that the second transfer window will be open from July 20 to September 11. Therefore, Flamengo is focused on solving its lack of a center forward. The idea is to have a natural number 9 who can rotate the position with Pedro.

Does Flamengo have names on its radar?

In the window that has just closed, Flamengo made offers for Kaio Jorge and opened talks with names such as Taty Castellanos and Richarlison, who did not want to come to Brazil. As a result, the expectation is that the Rubro-Negro will make a new move for the Cruzeiro player, who was tempted by Fla’s offer.
