Fiorentina striker Lucas Beltran is reportedly more inclined to accept the transfer to Flamengo for €12m plus add-ons after the Brazilians improved personal terms.

The two clubs had already shaken hands on the fee, which is believed to be worth €12m with another €3m in performance-related bonuses.

However, the player was unsure about the destination and had been stalling on the move, especially as Sassuolo and Galatasaray were also linked.

Beltran intrigued by new proposal

According to Sport Mediaset, negotiations between Flamengo and Beltran’s entourage have seen some progress over the last few hours.

They now believe that he is ready to leave Europe and accept the return to South America for his new club.

It would include an increased salary compared to the current wages he earns at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, both in the fixed sum, and performance-related bonuses for goals scored and trophies.

The 24-year-old Argentina international was a big investment for Fiorentina when he joined from River Plate in 2023 for €12.6m plus up to another €10-13m in add-ons.

Beltran amassed 98 competitive appearances for the Viola, scoring 16 goals and providing nine assists.
