The multi-million dollar offer from the Middle East that has Erick Thumb with half a foot out of Flamengo.

Erick Pulgar, jugador chileno del Flamengo, se encuentra en una situación de incertidumbre tras recibir ofertas económicas significativas de equipos extranjeros, especialmente del Neom, club saudita recientemente ascendido. Según RTI Esporte, el volante de 32 años ha iniciado negociaciones para dejar al club brasileño, motivado por la percepción de que su salario no refleja su importancia dentro del equipo. Su contrato actual, extendido en 2023, le otorga unos $2,7 millones anuales, pero aún queda lejos de las cifras ofrecidas por potenciales nuevos patrocinadores. La cláusula de rescisión de su contrato establece una suma de $4 millones, algo que ha sido criticado por exdirectivos del club. Aunque Flamengo valora a Pulgar como pieza clave, teme que no pueda competir económicamente con las ofertas de otros clubes.
