Flamengo’s new signing Samuel Lino starred for Atlético Madrid, stats | OneFootball

Filipe Luís gains another option for the attack with the arrival of Samuel Lino

The Flamengo announced the third signing of the club in this transfer window: Samuel Lino. Now, the player joins Saúl Ñíguez and Emerson Royal as the new reinforcements of Mengão for the rest of the season. The attacker, in fact, arrived at Ninho do Urubu after two years 'reigning' at Atlético de Madrid (ESP).

This is because, in the last two seasons, Samuel Lino has established himself as one of the highlights of the team led by Diego Simeone. In addition, the player has become an absolute starter for Atlético de Madrid and, therefore, Flamengo had to spend a large amount to hire the attacker. It is worth noting that Mengão invested 22 million euros (R$ 143 million reais), in addition to bonuses.

WHEN WILL SAMUEL LINO DEBUT FOR FLAMENGO?

Now, Samuel Lino is living in expectation of debuting with the Flamengo jersey. At the moment, the board is preparing the documents to register the player in the Brazilian Football Confederation's Daily Information Bulletin (BID). Meanwhile, the attacker is starting his preparation with his new teammates.

WHAT ROLE WILL SAMUEL LINO PLAY FOR FLAMENGO?

Like Saúl Ñíguez, Samuel Lino is another kind of 'utility' player. This is because, although he is an attacker by origin, the Brazilian has been playing in recent years as a winger, mainly due to Diego Simeone's tactical scheme. In Flamengo, however, the expectation is that the athlete will be used on the left side of the attack, competing for a position with Michael and Cebolinha.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE MORE SIGNINGS ON THE WAY?

In the midst of Samuel Lino's arrival in Rio de Janeiro, Flamengo still has more signings 'in the pipeline' in the transfer window. One of them is Jorge Carrascal, who arrives in Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday (30) to start his journey at Mengão. After months of negotiation with Dynamo Moscow (RUS), the Rubro-Negro managed to convince the Russian club.
