Valencia expressed their interest in the 29-year-old Brazilian defender Léo Pereira and contacted his representatives to inquire about his value and the conditions for a release during the current transfer window. Flamengo, on the other hand, is currently not interested in negotiating the player but has indicated that they are open to future discussions. For an immediate release, Flamengo would only consider the release clause of 60 million euros. Léo Pereira's contract with the Brazilian club extends to the end of 2027, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €8 million. In addition to Valencia, Sevilla and Porto also approached Flamengo regarding Léo Pereira, but the club reiterated its stance of not negotiating any of its key players during the final stretch of the season. This decision is consistent with Flamengo's general policy of retaining starters, as evidenced by their previous rejection of a substantial offer for another player, Léo Ortiz, from RB Leipzig.
