Looking ahead to 2026, Flamengo is already making waves in the transfer market and has its sights set on one of the highlights of the Brasileirão. This is Cruzeiro striker Kaio Jorge, 23, who was top scorer in the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil.
However, the Rio club’s mission will not be easy, since Raposa will only agree to exchange the athlete for a value starting at 50 million euros (around R$327 million).
The information was disclosed in an interview by Pedro Lourenço with Itatiaia and confirmed by Metropolises.
