After almost a year of conversations and director rapprochement, Flamengo is close to renewing Gabigol, who is expected to complete 10 years at the club
O Flamengo is close to ensuring that his main idol of recent years, Gabigol, renew your current contract and stay at the club for up to 10 years. This is because, according to “Globo Esporte”, there are only details left for the attacker to sign until the end of 2028, which would mean that he would arrive at Gávea in a decade.
Negotiations have been going on for months, and the last few weeks have been crucial for the current proximity of the agreement. The defeat in the final of the Copa do Brasil meant that Marcos Braz and the player became closer, after discussions during the year, and this certainly contributed to the renewal.
Currently, Gabigol only has a contract until the end of 2024, which would allow him to sign a pre-contract from the middle of next season, which would result in a free exit. At the moment, the chances of this happening are remote, due to the club’s idolatry of the player.

Furthermore, he was decisive in other moments, but he once again left his name in Flamengo’s history by scoring another goal in the last decision of the continental competition. With a goal from the then number 9, the team won the Athletico-PR in 2022, and became three-time Libertadores champion.
