Flamengo has secured the signing of its first reinforcement for 2026. It is Vitão, from Internacional. The defender will arrive in Rio this Thursday (08) to present himself to the Most Beloved.
Vitão underwent medical exams when he was recently in Rio de Janeiro, at the end of 2025. However, the athlete and Flamengo agreed to sign the contract only this Friday (09), before the official presentation at the Ninho do Urubu Training Center.
Vitão's first press conference at Flamengo is scheduled for 2:30 PM (Brasília time). Therefore, Flamengo fans can stay tuned to Coluna do Fla to not miss any details of the statements from the newest reinforcement.
The agreement between Flamengo and Internacional was closed for about 10 million euros (R$ 65 million at the current exchange rate). Additionally, the Most Beloved forgave the Gaucho team for the debt with Thiago Maia.
Internacional bought Thiago Maia for 4 million euros (R$ 21.6 million at the exchange rate at the time), in July 2024, with payment divided into 10 installments. However, it has not yet been settled. The amount, with correction, would be around 4.7 million euros (R$ 30.6 million).
