Flamengo has secured the signing of Samuel Lino, the third addition to the Most Beloved team in this transfer window. The forward is eagerly anticipating his arrival in Rio de Janeiro to sign a contract with the red-black team. Thus, Coluna do Fla provides all the details of the negotiation between Mengão and the new Fla player.
After a brief negotiation with Atlético de Madrid (ESP), Flamengo reached an agreement with Samuel Lino to sign a four-year contract. Thus, the forward will be part of the Most Beloved team until the 2029 season. It's worth noting that the athlete arrives to strengthen the left side of the red-black attack, competing for a position with Michael and Cebolinha.
Flamengo will spend 22 million euros (around R$ 143 million at the current exchange rate) for the signing of Samuel Lino, plus up to 2 million euros (R$ 13 million) in performance bonuses. Thus, the forward becomes the most expensive signing in Mengão's history, surpassing 'Charly' Alcaraz, who cost R$ 110.6 million in 2024.
It's worth noting that, at this moment, Samuel Lino is already traveling to Rio de Janeiro. After the designated plane for the trip faced some technical issues, the player's arrival is scheduled for 12:20 PM (Brasília time). After landing, the athlete will head to Ninho do Urubu to undergo medical exams and sign the contract with Mengão.
Samuel Lino becomes the third addition to Flamengo in this transfer window. Days earlier, the club had already secured the arrival of Saúl Ñíguez, at no cost, after the midfielder terminated his contract with Atlético de Madrid (ESP), and Emerson Royal, a former Milan (ITA) player. Additionally, the Most Beloved is also in advanced talks with Jorge Carrascal, a Colombian midfielder.
