Did Monaco (FRA) make an offer to sign Flamengo’s Jorginho?

Monaco’s new head coach, Filipe Luís, is looking for reinforcements in the transfer market for the French team. With that in mind, the manager called Jorginho, Flamengo’s defensive midfielder, in an attempt to take the player to the club. This Thursday (16), during an event at Maracanãzinho, the player reiterated that he will stay with the Rubro-Negro.

— He’ll be happy at Monaco just like he was at Flamengo, because of everything he studies and because of who he is. I believe he has everything it takes to shine. (Are you going to Monaco?) Are you crazy, do you want to send me away? We talked, even as friends. No, I’m at Flamengo -, Jorginho said in an interview with ‘GE TV’.

Did Filipe Luís try to sign other Flamengo players?

According to reporting by journalist Rock Hudson, from Coluna do Fla, coach Filipe Luís also recommended the name of Jorge Carrascal to the French side, but the head of scouting turned down the Colombian. In addition, a third Flamengo player was assessed by Monaco, but the name remains undisclosed.

What did Flamengo director José Boto say about Filipe Luís’ interest in Flamengo players?

“I’m not worried, especially not about Filipe Luís. I’m worried that, because we have good players, the market as a whole will come knocking on our door. But they’ll have to pay the price we think is fair; or maybe, not even for a fair price will we let [players leave]. It depends a lot on what it is, case by case. It’s not really something that has been planned” -, Boto said in an interview with ‘ESPN’.

What are the details of Filipe Luís’ contract with Monaco?

Coach Filipe Luís signed a contract with Monaco until June 2028. This way, the former Flamengo man got the long-awaited opportunity to coach a European club. Besides the French league, the team will also play in the Europa League in the 2026/27 season.
