What did Filipe Luís say about signing a new striker for Flamengo?
Flamengo is looking to hire a new striker for the 2026 season. Therefore, the coach Filipe Luís commented on Rubro-Negro’s demand in the transfer market at the beginning of the year.
— This is a question for sports management. I take part in putting together the cast, of course. We are always looking at the market and trying to reinforce positions as much as possible, and attack is one of them. It’s not easy to find a striker – he said, before finishing:
— The attackers who are worth what they are worth, most of them don’t want to come to Brazil. It is not easy to reinforce this position. But certainly (José) Boto and the club’s entire scouting team are looking at the market daily in search of reinforcements for the squad – he said.
Has Flamengo already signed a player in 2026?
Currently, Flamengo has agreed to sign three players at the start of the season. These are Vitão, Andrew and Lucas Paquetá. However, Mais Querido is still trying to reinforce itself in attack, as it lost Juninho and Michael.
What is Flamengo’s next game?
Flamengo now focuses on the match against Internacional, on Wednesday (04), in the second round of the Brazilian Championship. The game is scheduled for 7pm (Brasília time), and will have ‘in loco’ coverage from the Coluna do Fla.
