With the renewal of Filipe Luís announced, Flamengo continues to keep an eye on the market to reinforce the squad. This time’s name comes from striker Kaio Jorge, top scorer in the last Brasileirão and Cruzeiro’s starter. Rubro-Negro has already sent a proposal to Raposa, who signaled a counter-proposal.
But what are the values? Does Kaio Jorge want to play for Flamengo? THE Sporting News show.

Kaio Jorge at Flamengo?
According to “O Globo”, Flamengo trusts in Kaio Jorge’s interest in wearing the red-black shirt as an asset to try to break Cruzeiro’s rigid stance in the face of the proposal presented by the Rio club.
The Minas Gerais team, in turn, maintains a firm position and signals that it only accepts negotiating the attacker for values close to 50 million euros, around R$326 million. Given this, Flamengo is working behind the scenes to convince the player, current top scorer in Brazilian football in 2025, to press for his release.
A formal offer sent to Raposa is 30 million euros, approximately R$186 million. There is still an alternative under study, which involves inclusion of Everton Cebolinha in the businessaccompanied by a smaller amount of money.
Despite having already heard from Cruzeiro that none of the proposals are appealing at the moment, Flamengo is awaiting a possible repositioning of businessman Pedro Lourenço, who holds the rights to the player, acquired from Juventus for R$40 million, in the hope of reopening talks.
