Flamengo has Napoli as a new competitor in the dispute for Thiago Almada
Flamengo, one of the most active clubs in the transfer market, now faces a new challenge in the search for Thiago Almada, a talented Argentine midfielder. Napoli, the Italian football giant, also showed interest in the player, who currently plays for Atlético de Madrid, according to a report published by the Mundo Deportivo portal.
In addition to the Italian club, River Plate, from Argentina, also expressed their desire to have the athlete. However, Almada’s future is still undefined, and he has already communicated his preference to continue playing on European soil, prioritizing football on the Old Continent in his career.
The player’s preference makes a possible negotiation with Rubro-Negro unlikely, unless he reevaluates his decision about playing in Brazil. For Brazilian fans, Almada is not a completely unknown name, as he had a notable period of prominence at Botafogo in 2024, under the command of coach Artur Jorge, showing his potential on the national scene.
