According to UOL, Flamengo has shown interest in Paulo Dybala, has initiated contacts with the player, and has offered him a four-year contract. Flamengo is reportedly willing to offer Dybala a salary higher than Boca Juniors. The Brazilian option is mentioned as a professional opportunity that Dybala could consider for his future.

According to transfer journalist César Luis Merlo, it is possible Paulo Dybala will not play in Europe after this season, and Flamengo is interested in offering the Argentine a lucrative contract. The Brazilian club is said to have more to offer financially, while Boca Juniors are also hoping for a return to his homeland. His contract at AS Roma will expire after four seasons, and with no talks between the parties, it is suggested that it is highly unlikely the player will stay in Rome.
