Gonzalo Plata is set to return to Rio de Janeiro this Sunday (06) after failing to pass his medical examinations in Russia.
Ecuadorian forward Gonzalo Plata has his return to Rio de Janeiro scheduled for this Sunday, the 6th. The information was reported by Léo José, from Coluna do Fla, who provided details regarding the player’s trip. Plata is set to depart for Brazil on Saturday (05), with his arrival expected the following day.
The athlete was in Russia, where he underwent medical exams for a potential transfer to Dynamo Moscow. However, the player did not pass the evaluations, leading to his return to the country. According to reports, Plata‘s return coincides with Flamengo‘s stay in Belém.
Return to the Rubro-Negro
Failing the medical exams in Russia means that Gonzalo Plata remains available to Flamengo. The forward, who has not performed as expected since his arrival at the Rio club, will have the opportunity to report back and, perhaps, look to turn his form around wearing the red-and-black jersey.
Next Steps
Plata‘s return to Rio de Janeiro at a time when the first team is in Belém raises questions about his immediate integration. It remains to be seen how the Flamengo football department plans to use the player in the coming weeks and what his role in the squad will be. More information regarding the Ecuadorian’s future is expected to be released soon.
