Varela reveals when he'll sign new deal with Flamengo | OneFootball

Flamengo and Varela should sign the renewal later this week

Flamengo defeated Internacional 1-0 in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores last Wednesday (13th). After the match, Guillermo Varela revealed in the mixed zone when he will sign the contract renewal with the Most Beloved.

As he quickly passed through the Maracanã mixed zone, Varela was asked when the contract renewal with Flamengo would be finalized. The full-back was straightforward: “This week, this week,” he told journalists present at the stadium.

How is the saga for Varela’s renewal going?

In summary, Flamengo has been working on renewing Varela’s contract since the beginning of the year. In March, after announcing the contract extension of Erick Pulgar, Flamengo had set the full-back as the next target. However, until now, the Most Beloved and the number 2 had not sat down to formalize the negotiations.

However, as Varela said, the player’s renewal with Flamengo should be signed later this week. Currently, the full-back’s contract with the Rubro-Negro runs until December this year. Thus, there are about four months left on the contract between the parties.

Will Varela play in Flamengo’s next match?

Most likely, Varela will start in Flamengo’s next match. That’s because Emerson Royal felt pain in his left ankle, where a sprain was diagnosed. As a result, the number 2 should be the immediate replacement at right-back for Fla.

When is Flamengo’s next match?

It’s important to note that Flamengo will face Internacional again. However, this time, the teams will clash in a match valid for the 20th round of the Brasileirão. The match will take place at Estádio Beira-Rio, on Sunday (17th), starting at 6:30 pm (Brasília time).
