Last Thursday (07), Flamengo was the Brazilian under-20 champion. Rubro Negro beat Palmeiras on penalties by a score of 3 to 2. What is surprising is that two of Mais Querido's professional players also won a championship medal. The two athletes were Wesley and Victor Hugo.
Wesley participated in two games of the Brazilian Under-20 Championship, in the victories over Red Bull Bragantino and against Ceará, in March. Victor Hugo was on the field against Palmeiras and had a decisive performance, scoring a goal in the 4-3 victory. At the time, the main team was led by Vítor Pereira, and the full-back was behind Varela and Matheuzinho. On the other hand, Victor played in the under-20s to regain his rhythm after an injury in the professional team.
According to the journalist "FlaZoeiro" and the page "FlaBase", in addition to Victor Hugo and Wesley, four other players who were not on the field in the final against Palmeiras will receive medals. They are: Matheus Gonçalves, Kauã Santos, Mateusão and Ryan Luka. The quartet was traded to Red Bull Bragantino, Eintracht Frankfurt (ALE), Shabab Al Ahli (USA) and Fortaleza respectively.
The dispute for the title of the Brazilian Under-20 Championship was exciting. Flamengo beat Palmeiras on penalties, in the grand final that took place in Volta Redonda, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, because Rubro Negro had the best campaign in the first phase.
After the 0-0 draw to 0 in normal time, the dispute went straight to penalties. Palmeiras wasted two kicks, Flamengo only missed one, and thus secured the trophy. Rubro Negro became two-time champions, winning for the first time in 2019, precisely over the team from São Paulo.

Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (31) to face Grêmio, in a match valid for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. The ball rolls at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, with broadcast by Rede Globo , on open TV, and Premiere, on pay-per-view.
In midfield, Jorginho 's condition is a concern. The defensive midfielder is experiencing muscle discomfort and did not participate in training with the group during the week . He continues to perform specific activities at Ninho do Urubu and will be re-evaluated this Saturday, in the final training session led by Filipe Luís before the match.
Since his Club World Cup debut, Jorginho has established himself as a key player in the red-and-black squad. If he isn't cleared by the medical department, Allan and Evertton Araújo are potential options, while De La Cruz is considered an outsider. Pulgar remains out of the plans due to surgery on his right foot.
With the confirmed absences and the doubt over Jorginho, coach Filipe Luís should send the following team to the field at Flamengo : Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz (Danilo), Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Allan (Jorginho), Saúl and Arrascaeta; Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
Rubro-Negro heads into the 22nd round as the sole leader of the Brasileirão, with 46 points, two ahead of second-place Cruzeiro, who still have a game in hand . After the match against Grêmio, the competition will be suspended for 13 days due to the FIFA International Day.

Just under two months after leaving Flamengo for Zenit (RUS), midfielder Gerson could change clubs again . According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Al Ittihad (SAU) has begun talks to try to sign the player, who is considered a priority in the final stretch of the Saudi Arabian transfer window.
In July, Zenit paid €25 million (approximately R$160 million) to pay Gerson's release clause. Flamengo therefore did not participate in negotiations, only releasing the player after the full payment of the contract clause. So far, no agreement has been reached. The Saudi club is trying to convince the Russians to release the player , who was recently signed for a multi-million dollar fee.
On July 4, the club published an official statement confirming the departure of the then captain, highlighting that the decision came from the athlete himself, who submitted a resignation and unilateral termination request , paid by the Russians, without having any negotiation with Mais Querido.
On social media, Flamengo was direct and thanked the midfielder for the time he defended Manto: "Clube de Regatas do Flamengo announces the end of the contract with the athlete Gerson . The Mais Querido thanks him for the time he defended Manto and wishes the player good luck."
Upon returning to the club, Gerson played 144 matches, scored 12 goals, and won four titles . He also took on the captain's armband and established himself as one of the team's key leaders. At Zenit, however, the midfielder has only played six games so far.
