Zenit Sets €50 Million Price on Luiz Henrique as Flamengo Gauges Interest

His national-team surge has driven up the price, cooling near-term prospects at Flamengo.

Overview

  • Zenit signaled it would evaluate offers at a €50 million asking price and could accept around €40 million, according to ESPN reporting cited by Terra.
  • Flamengo is studying a return for the winger but has no active bid, with O Globo reporting the club is prioritizing a new center-forward and may allocate more than €40 million to that role and wide options.
  • Asked about joining Flamengo, Luiz Henrique declined to answer directly and said he would decide his future with his family after focusing on his club, in an interview with Canal GOAT.
  • The 25-year-old has 12 Brazil caps in this World Cup cycle with two goals and three assists, a run that is boosting his value ahead of further national-team games and selections.
  • Zenit bought him for about €35 million in January 2025 and he has 35 appearances with four goals and four assists, which means a sale near the current range would deliver a profit.
