Flamengo are trying to make Andreas Pereira’s loan stay a permanent one by signing the Manchester United midfielder this month.
According to information obtained by Fred Caldeira, from TNT Sports, Flamengo have made a €10 million proposal to buy Pereira.
It is also noted that Pereira wants to prioritise the club that gives him continuity as a starter, but we already knew that he was happy in Brazil and didn’t want to return at the end of his loan deal.

There’s no point bringing him back because it was clear he wasn’t up to the standard when he last played for United.
However, as an academy graduate, I’d like to see him move somewhere he is guaranteed football – and a greater chance of getting back into the Brazil squad.
If Pereira can’t get into the United midfield now, he never will.
