The agreement between Diego Alves and Flamengo is increasingly distant. There is a reasonable difference between what the club wants to pay and the goalkeeper wants to receive a monthly salary, between 20% and 23%. The leaders also included in the proposal an exit clause similar to the one that allowed Rafinha to move to the Olympiacos, from Greece. In mid-2021, faced with a proposal from abroad that interested him, he could move without paying a fine.
Diego Alves is a goalkeeper who is in the history of Flamengo, but if what he wants to win (and it is legitimate to want it) is out of budget, especially in times of pandemic, and there is no agreement (there will hardly be one), the best for they are all gone. The difference between what you ask for and what they offer you is significant, because the goalkeeper wants to earn more (I repeat, it is legitimate that he wants to) and the club does not want to disburse larger amounts in the current context.
In addition to an increase of around 20% to 23% in relation to what was offered, Flamengo signs with a one-year contract, while shirt 1 asks for two more seasons in a new commitment. But leaders understand that at that time the requested adjustment is not justified, it would be out of budget. And that at 35 years old (he will turn 36 on June 24), the best thing would be to do it well for a season, and he will be able to renew it in December of next year. This is how Europeans like Chelsea act when it comes to players over thirty.
There is an understanding that readjusting an athlete’s compensation by nearly a quarter in these times of falling earnings would spell the password for others to claim the same. With a very high payroll, Flamengo needs to take careful measurements according to the (current) size of his own legs. There, perhaps, there will be no commitment for two years with an athlete who is obviously living his last seasons in his career.
“Ah, but you have money to hire Pedro,” someone will say. Each case is different, a young forward means technical investment with the possibility of future earnings, a veteran goalkeeper goes against it. Whoever defends responsibly managed clubs and charges top hats to do any business to keep a player is being contradictory. If you leave Flamengo, lucky Diego Alves, what they cannot do is divert the red and black finances. It would be indefensible.
