Part 4/5:
José Boto has vowed to keep important players in the squad, acknowledging the challenging year ahead. He reinforced that the focus is on strengthening the team rather than weakening it through player exits. Boto's assertions implied that the club would not entertain high-stakes transfer offers and sought to ensure that core players remained committed to the club's ambitions across various competitions, particularly the Brazilian Championship.
Reports also indicated that Flamengo had rejected offers for other prominent players, including Wesley from Aston Villa and Bruno Henrique, who is content at the club and not seeking a move despite rumors. The club's refusal to negotiate these departures signals a clear strategy to solidify their squad for the upcoming season.
