Lorran, an attacking midfielder born in 2006, has truly impressed since making his mark in Flamengo’s first team. As per Fabrizio Romano, there’s a £43 million release clause embedded in his contract with Flamengo. Notably, Lorran is affiliated with Roc Nation Sports Brazil, the agency founded by JayZ, which also represents other Brazilian talents such as Vinicius Jr, Paqueta, Martinelli, and Endrick.

Remarkably, Lorran made his debut for Flamengo’s senior team at the tender age of 16. Just a mere two weeks later, he etched his name in the club’s history books as the youngest player ever to score. Since then, he has firmly established himself as a pivotal member of the squad. Moreover, Lorran has donned the U16 international jersey for Brazil, and his contract with Flamengo is set to run until 2025.
Chelsea, under the stewardship of Todd Boehly, has been actively securing promising Brazilian talents, including Deivid Washington, Andrey Santos, and Angelo, further enhancing their reputation for nurturing young prospects.
