Flamengo to make final bid for Vitão as defender nears Cruzeiro | OneFootball

Internacional Has Already Rejected Some Flamengo Offers for Vitão

Even before the transfer window opens, clubs are already moving in the market. In this scenario, Cruzeiro is close to signing defender Vitão from Internacional. However, despite this, Flamengo is expected to make a final offer for the defender.

Even with negotiations with Cruzeiro well underway, Vitão is expected to receive a last proposal from Flamengo. This is because the deal with the team from Minas Gerais is not yet closed. Therefore, the Most Beloved promises a new attempt to sign the Inter defender.

Initially, Flamengo’s proposal totaled 8.7 million euros (R$ 57 million at the current exchange rate). In summary, the Rubro-Negro offered a sum, in addition to forgiving the debt for Thiago Maia. However, Internacional promptly rejected the Rubro-Negro’s offer.

What Did Internacional Want?

As mentioned earlier, Flamengo’s proposal did not please Internacional. That’s because the club from Rio Grande do Sul asked Flamengo to waive the interest and adjustment on the debt involving Thiago Maia, in addition to forgiving 4 million euros and paying another 6 million euros.

Is Flamengo’s Interest Old?

Yes! Internacional had already rejected another offer from Flamengo. Before that, in the middle of this year, the Rubro-Negro offered R$ 53.2 million for the defender, with R$ 31.6 million in cash and R$ 21.6 million referring to the forgiveness of the debt for Thiago Maia, who was loaned to the club from Rio Grande do Sul.

In March 2024, Internacional signed Thiago Maia for 4 million euros (R$ 21.6 million at the time). However, so far, the club from Rio Grande do Sul has not paid any of the ten installments of the agreement. That’s why Flamengo is trying to find solutions to receive the amount.
