Messi scout tips Barcelona to sign Flamengo target | OneFootball

Which player could be on Barcelona’s (ESP) radar?

Flamengo still has Kaio Jorge, from Cruzeiro, as one of its targets for the upcoming transfer windows. However, the Rubro-Negro could face competition from Barcelona (ESP).

This is because businessman and former agent Josep Maria Minguella suggested the Cruzeiro striker as a replacement for Lewandowski at Barcelona. The Spanish club, however, has not yet decided whether it will make a move.

Who is Josep Maria Minguella?

Josep Maria Minguella has a track record of discovering great players. The former agent is a transfer advisor for Barcelona and was responsible for bringing Messi and Maradona to the Spanish club.

Did Flamengo try to sign Kaio Jorge?

At the beginning of the year, Flamengo tried to sign Kaio Jorge, but Cruzeiro turned it down. Then, the Minas Gerais club renewed the striker’s contract and adjusted his release clause to 30 million euros (R$ 181 million) starting in 2027, indicating that a departure could become viable next year.

Currently, Flamengo only has Pedro as a center-forward option for the upcoming matches. However, Bruno Henrique, who has already stated that he prefers to play on the left wing, can also play as a ‘9’ on certain occasions.
