Flamengo asked the Chelsea the assignment of Kenedy for next season with the intention of becoming one of the most important reinforcements of the club for the final phase of the Copa Conmebol Libertadores de América, the club’s main objective in the current campaign.
El Mengao, who will face Paraguay’s Olimpia in the round of 16, wants to add a new offensive piece to his rotation and have the best squad in America. Atlético Mineiro and Palmeiras built high-level teams, so they don’t want to be left behind after losing one of their main stars in the space shuttle zone: Gerson.
An interesting piece for Flamengo
Chelsea wouldn’t be disappointed to give in to the Brazilian again, although they offered it to Sevilla to lower Jules Koundé’s price. The team from Seville does not intend to receive players in the operation, so the option for Kenedy to return to Brazil after six years does not seem far-fetched.
The Brazilian, who stands out as a left wing, played on loan for several teams during his stage at Chelsea. It has defended the colors of Watford, Newcastle, Getafe and Granada, where it has shown an interesting level, although it has not taken the leap in quality that was expected.
Flamengo, who also tried to hire David Luiz and Arturo Vidal, wants to build a dream team in South America to establish themselves as the best team in America and win every title they play. Renato Gaúcho wants to have a much wider range of options. The possibility of other players leaving if opportunities come from Europe is also dealt with. Gabigol was tested by Rafa Benítez at Everton, but there is no official move.
