Overview

• Arrascaeta and Flamengo reached an agreement in principle after a meeting at Ninho do Urubu, aligning a new deal through 2028 with a mechanism that could add 2029, pending signature.
• Director José Boto met with agent Daniel Fonseca on Monday, with values described as essentially settled by club-aligned reporting.
• Talks with coach Filipe Luís continue after the club judged the initial financial proposal from his camp, represented by Jorge Mendes, to be high and prepared a counteroffer.
• Negotiation points for the coach include contract length options—either through 2027 or a shorter extension—and revised international release clauses.
• Filipe Luís’s current deal runs to December 2025, and although Flamengo recently rebuffed reported interest from Fenerbahçe, the club is proceeding carefully given his importance and ongoing campaigns.
