Fluminense
The situation took a turn behind the scenes and the journalist says that hiring gained strength after Diniz’s request
Flu continues to prepare for the 2023 season and, among the search for reinforcements, it also needs to resolve outstanding issues in its current squad. A situation that proved practically decided, suffered a turnaround according to journalist Victor Lessa.
This is midfielder Nathan, who played last season for Tricolor Carioca, on loan from Atlético-MG. To keep the player, Flu will have to activate the purchase clause, worth 5 million euros (R$ 27 million at current quotations). The first information showed that this would not be the path chosen by Nense, however, the panorama could change.
According to Lessa’s findings, people behind the scenes of the Team of Warriors said that Fluminense can keep the player and that his departure cannot be nailed as a fait accompli. Nathan gained a strong supporter to stay in Laranjeiras, as Fernando Diniz is interested in keeping the midfielder in the squad.
It is important to point out that a new loan is out of the question. The executive director of football at Atlético-MG, Rodrigo Caetano, was emphatic in stating that Nathan will only leave the squad of the Minas Gerais club through a definitive negotiation. The information was also reverberated on the NetFlu portal.
