Flamengo remains interested in having Kaio Jorge in the new season, but has found it difficult to negotiate with Cruzeiro. The Minas Gerais team denied Rubro-Negro’s third proposal.
According to the website “ge.globo”, the offer sent by the Rio team did not reach what Raposa expects to receive for the player in a possible negotiation. Flamengo has not yet officially received Cruzeiro’s refusal.
What is the value offered by Flamengo for Kaio Jorge?
In the last proposal sent, the red and black board raised the value to more than 30 million euros (R$ 188 million). The Minas Gerais club had already ended negotiations with Flamengo and guaranteed that it would only sell Kaio Jorge for 50 million euros (R$314 million).
Flamengo’s first proposal was less than 30 million euros. Despite the initial refusal, the team did not abandon the negotiation for the 23-year-old athlete.
Afterwards, the Rio club offered 24 million euros (R$150 million) plus Everton Cebolinha, valuing the striker at 8 million euros (R$50 million). Offer that was also declined.

How much is Kaio Jorge’s termination fine?
Flamengo’s former wish, Kaio Jorge had already entered the club’s radar in February, but talks did not progress at that time. The striker has a contract with Cruzeiro until June 2029, and the Celeste board does not plan to negotiate him in this window.
The player’s maintenance was a direct request from coach Tite when he took charge of the team. The termination fine is considered very high, close to 100 million euros (R$652 million).
Cruzeiro just paid out 27 million euros (around R$176 million), plus three million euros in bonuses (R$18 million), for Gerson.
