Incoming Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag will reportedly recall Andreas Pereira if his permanent move to Flamengo falls through.
Pereira, 26, is currently on loan at Flamengo and is expected to sign a long-term contact at the Brazilian club this summer. Yet Flamengo are said to have reservations about completing a £12million deal due to his performances since joining.
The midfielder has played 37 games in all competitions - including last year's Copa Libertadores final, where he made a mistake in extra time to gift Brazilian rivals Palmeiras a 2-1 victory. Flamengo are currently ninth in the Brazilian Serie A.
