Flamengo has been working hard to reinforce its squad for next season. There are already two names that keep circulating, as the favorites of the red and black board and the coach himself, Tite. Nicolás de la Cruz and Léo Ortiz should receive an official proposal from the Gávea club in the coming weeks, with little time left until the transfer window opens, but Tite expects even more when Fla goes to the football market.
According to ge, the former Brazilian team carried out a diagnosis of the team, evaluating the performance of the last two months in which he had the opportunity to work with the athletes, and came to the conclusion that the managers They should invest in a right winger. Also according to the newspaper, the coach does not see Everton Ribeiro in the role, but not because of his lack of skill.
Although Everton is a 'specialist' in this position, the coach believes that he would be better competing for a place with Arrascaeta, who is currently more in midfield. At 34 years old, the star is already losing a lot of space in the team, but he still doesn't want to retire or leave, which is why he is seeking a contract renewal, of his agreement which ends at the end of this year.
In Tite's view, if Everton Ribeiro's contract is renewed, he will officially become the Uruguayan's bench, because it is extremely necessary for a more effective winger to be helping the team in matches. One option that would save Ribeiro's starting position is if the gaucho chose to use De la Cruz, who could join the team next year, as a winger, even if he is a midfielder on paper.
It is not impossible to see this type of situation happening, because the coach has already used midfielders during his career as a winger. One of the most successful examples is perhaps Jadson, at Corinthians, in 2015. In these cases, he would let the star work more freely, placing the 'runner' to act in the middle.
