Jorge Carrascal set for Flamengo debut v Ceará in Brasileirão tonight? | OneFootball

Flamengo announced the signing of Carrascal this Saturday (02)

Flamengo takes the field this Sunday (03) to face Ceará, in a match valid for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. With that in mind, the rubro-negra fans may be wondering if Jorge Carrascal, the new addition to Mengão, will make his debut against the alvinegro team. However, the midfielder is still not able to play with the Sacred Mantle.

This is because, due to a delay by Dynamo Moscow (RUS) in sending the documents, Flamengo was unable to register Carrascal for the match against Ceará. After all, the Colombian needs to be registered in the CBF’s Daily Information Bulletin (BID). Therefore, the expectation is that the midfielder will take the field for the first time next Saturday (09), against Mirassol.

HOW MUCH DID FLAMENGO PAY FOR CARRASCAL?

To sign Carrascal, Flamengo paid 12 million euros (about R$ 77 million) to Dynamo. The negotiation took a while to conclude, as the deal involved three parties: Mengão, the Russians, and Atlético-MG. This is because the Europeans would only agree to release the midfielder after finalizing the signing of Rubens from the Minas Gerais team, which was completed last Friday (01).

WHAT NUMBER WILL CARRASCAL WEAR AT FLAMENGO?

Thus, Carrascal signed a four-year contract with Flamengo, that is, until July 2029. The midfielder, who became the fourth reinforcement for Mengão in this transfer window, will wear the number 15 shirt in Filipe Luís’s team.

DOES FLAMENGO WANT TO SIGN MORE PLAYERS?

After securing the four players targeted by the board, Flamengo does not intend to make any ‘crazy’ moves in the market. However, the Rubro-Negro remains in active negotiations with Fiorentina (ITA) for the signing of striker Lucas Beltrán. Although an agreement on the fee has already been reached with the Italian club, Mengão still needs to convince the player to return to South American football.
