Vasco is close to selling Rayan to Bournemouth (ENG) in this transfer window. The striker has accepted the terms offered by the English club and is now awaiting a response from the Rio de Janeiro team. Therefore, there is a possibility that the player will not play against Flamengo on Wednesday (21st), in the Carioca tournament.
Bournemouth offered 35 million euros (R$ 218 million at the current exchange rate) to Vasco to sign Rayan. The Rio team accepted the amount of the proposal but made some demands before selling the striker.
This is because Vasco is demanding more future bonuses and performance-based incentives for Rayan, as well as a percentage of any future profit from a resale. Bournemouth, however, has not yet agreed to the counterproposal from the Rio club.
Vasco, in fact, did not include Rayan in the squad for Sunday’s (18th) match against Nova Iguaçu in the Carioca. The striker is close to being sold and, therefore, Fernando Diniz decided to leave him out of the second round of the state championship.
Flamengo, on the other hand, is focusing its attention on the classic against Vasco. The match is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Wednesday (21st), at Maracanã, with live broadcast on Rede Globo (free-to-air) and Premiere (pay-per-view).
