Claudinho’s team prepares the player announcement at Flamengo

Claudinho will be Flamengo’s first reinforcement in this transfer window.

Claudinho is very close to being announced as Flamengo’s latest reinforcement. After numerous attempts, Zenit (Russia) has accepted the proposal sent by Robredo Negro and, given this, the midfielder’s staff is already preparing to promote the athlete as a Mangao player.

According to information from journalist Vinny Casagrande, the representatives who manage Claudinho’s social networks have already contacted Flamengo to clarify this situation. In addition to the announcement of the Rubro Negro, the midfielder’s staff is also preparing to bid farewell to the Zenit athlete.

Zenit has accepted Flamengo’s offer.

It is not news that Flamengo were looking to sign Claudinho. However, in this transfer window, negotiations have resurfaced and Mingo has managed to convince the Russians to release the midfielder. The final terms are not yet known, but the contract will be valid for five seasons, that is, until 2029.

Claudinho still playing for Zenit

Despite reaching an agreement with Flamengo, Claudinho remains committed to Zenit. The midfielder continued to travel normally with the team to compete in the Russian Super Cup final. The duel will take place on Saturday (13) against Krasnodar (Russia). With “agreement” from both sides, this is expected to be the athlete’s last match before signing with Rubro Negro.

Claudinho first arrived at Zenit in 2011, after joining Red Bull Bragantino. At that time, the Russians paid around €12 million (R$74.2 million at the time) for Bragança Paulista. Finally, last season, the midfielder scored five goals and provided nine assists in 42 games played for the Saint Petersburg team.
