Atletico is in an advanced stage of negotiations regarding a preliminary agreement on Rainier from Flamengo, reports AS.
17-year-old attacking midfielder made his debut for the main team last year and is currently one of the main rising stars of Brazilian football.
Rainier’s contract stipulates a clause of € 62 million, but the mattresses hope to lower the price.
However, Atletico is not hoping for a big discount, given the amount for which Real acquired Rodrigo and Vinicius.
Note that Atletico is also credited with an interest in Ivan Rakitich..
