Three days after the impeachment of president Julio Casares was approved, São Paulo resumed negotiations with Flamengo. This is because the Rubro-Negro wants to sell Allan and buy Marcos Antônio, but the current situation of the São Paulo team caused a pause in the talks.
Initially, the ousted board wanted to buy and keep Marcos Antônio, who is on loan from Lazio (ITA). However, the new São Paulo leaders are willing to negotiate the midfielder to generate immediate revenue. This information comes from journalist Rafael Emiliano, from the portal ‘Avante Meu Tricolor’.
Besides the impeachment, São Paulo is facing scandals involving the Morumbi VIP box and issues with the precarious structure of the training center. There are parts of the CT with holes in the roof that cause flooding in case of rain.
These and other episodes led to the process of removing Julio Casares. Given the political uncertainty of the opponent, the negotiations were stalled until the São Paulo club had a defined leadership.
The negotiation only reached the name of Marcos Antônio because São Paulo first approached Flamengo to acquire Allan. However, the Rubro-Negro only accepted the sale if the deal involved the former Lazio midfielder.
Marcos Antônio has already given the ‘yes’ to Flamengo. However, the Rubro-Negro has not yet presented an official proposal to São Paulo, which should happen soon due to the urgency of revenue on one side and the excess of competitions on the other.
