0With the pause in games, one of the biggest topics within Flamengo is the controversy in which striker and team idol Gabriel Barbosa was recently involved. He was caught wearing a Corinthians shirt, the club he had been rumored for.
The situation generated a very rum atmosphere behind the scenes and the board immediately decided to remove the player's number 10 shirt as a first measure. But behind the scenes remained agitated between the parties.
He had a big problem due to his renewal, now, the update brought by Venê Casagrande is that he should not have an extended agreement and will leave Rubro-Negro Carioca . Many characters from the football world spoke out about the case, Neto was one of them.
Recent information was that when he was punished, the Flamengo coach gave full support to the former number 10, but Neto questioned the fact of Gabi's current climate and whether the commander will give the athlete new chances and opportunities after what happened.
For him, the center forward is unlikely to play for Flamengo after everything that happened under the command of the former coach of the Brazilian team. “Is Tite going to put Gabigol on? Do you think Gabriel will want to stay with Tite? Unless Tite leaves Flamengo, that's a different situation. Gabi will never play with Tite”, began Neto.
In addition, the former player and presenter of the program Os Donos da Bola has already raised the possibility of Gabriel Barbosa leaving, as his contract ends at the end of this year and he is already in a good mood at the CRF. “He knows this in his everyday environment. Whatever club Gabigol goes to, he arrives as an idol. He's young, he won't want to disagree with Tite. And he won’t play with the coach”, he commented.
