🤯 Flamengo ready to pay €30 million for Kaio Jorge, claims website

Flamengo is targeting Kaio Jorge for 2026.

According to ESPN, Cruzeiro and the striker himself are already aware of the interest.

The Rubro-Negro would be willing to pay up to 30 million euros (about R$ 196 million) for the 23-year-old player. 

But they have not yet made a formal offer.

The number 19 for Cruzeiro was the top scorer of the 2025 Brasileirão and one of the leading scorers in the most recent Copa do Brasil. 

He scored a total of 26 goals in 46 matches this season – and also contributed nine assists. He is under contract until December 2028. 

Cruzeiro reportedly has no intention of negotiating Kaio Jorge with a direct rival. They value him at 45 million euros (R$ 294 million).

West Ham recently showed interest, but their loan proposal with an obligation to buy was not appealing.

A possible transfer would make the striker, who was developed by Santos, the most expensive signing in the history of Brazilian football.

Vitor Roque currently tops the ranking after being signed by Palmeiras for 25 million euros (R$ 154.6 million) in February this year.
