Michael is close to leaving Flamengo. This is because the forward has accepted the proposal to play for Santos this season. However, the left winger made a demand to the Mais Querido, which has 'stalled' the negotiation between the clubs.
According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Michael demanded from Flamengo the full amount of the signing bonus he is due. The Mais Querido, however, is opposing the payment. Thus, the Rubro-Negro has not yet accepted Santos' proposal to sell the player.
Santos is willing to pay 4 million dollars (R$ 21 million at the current exchange rate) to sign Michael. In addition, Flamengo will retain 20% of the economic rights for a future sale of the player.
Amid the negotiations, Michael continues to train normally with the Flamengo squad. The athlete is even available for the match against Vasco this Wednesday (21), at Maracanã, for the third round of the Campeonato Carioca.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the match between Flamengo and Vasco through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube), SporTV (closed channel), and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Carioca classic.
