In addition to Carlos Alcaraz, Flamengo has already planned the arrival of another important addition: left-back Alex Sandro. The player, whose deal was announced last Monday (26), is expected to arrive in Rio de Janeiro this Friday morning (30). Alex Sandro is expected to land at Galeão at around 5:25 am (Brasília time). Like Alcaraz, Alex Sandro is also unlikely to speak to the press upon his arrival in Brazil.

The club has not yet released the dates for the official presentations of both players, but the expectation is that more reinforcements will be announced until the transfer window closes, which ends next Monday (02).

After a brief and not very impactful visit to Flamengo in 2022, Portuguese coach Paulo Sousa is now in the sights of Roma, who are looking for a new commander after dismissing Ivan Juric< /b>. Currently at Al-Ahli, in the United Arab Emirates, Sousa is one of the main names considered for the position at the club in the Italian capital.


According to the Italian newspaper Gazzetta Dello Sport, Sousa is part of a list of coaches evaluated by Roma, which could count on its third coach only in 2024. De Rossi started the year in charge, while Juric lasted just 13 games before being released. If the Portuguese is chosen, he would return to Italy, where he already has an established history as a player for Inter and Juventus and as a coach for Salernitana .


No Flamengo, Paulo Sousa accumulated32 games, with 19 wins, six draws and seven defeats. He led the team to runners-up finishes in the Supercopa do Brasil and Carioca before leaving the club.


Paulo Sousa also participated in the historic conquest of the Libertadores 2022, when Flamengo had the best campaign in the history of the main team South American club tournament, when, under his command and that of Dorival Jr, Mengão had 12 wins and only one draw in 13 games in the continental competition. The only game in which Mais Querido did not win was precisely under the command of the Portuguese, against Vélez, who scored the equalizer in an irregular manner. The match, however, did not have VAR, so the goal was not invalidated.

The Brazilian Cup final between Flamengo and Atlético-MG starts soon, with the team from Minas Gerais needing at least two goals to dream of the title, as Mais Querido won the first game in the Maracanã by 3 to 1. The match will be played this Sunday (10), at 4pm (Brasília time), at Arena MRV, and will feature an Atlético team armed with three defenders, maintained by coach Gabriel Milito.


Atlético-MG Lineup


Everson; Lyanco, Battaglia and Junior Alonso; Scarpa, Otávio, Alan Franco, Guilherme Arana and Zaracho; Hulk and Paulinho.


Atlético-MG has two important absences: Deyverson, highlighted in the qualification for the Libertadores final with two goals against River Plate, and Fausto Vera. Both have already played in the Copa do Brasil for other clubs (Cuiabá and Corinthians, respectively) and cannot defend Atlético in this competition. Milito, in doubt about the third attacking player, decided on Zaracho, forming an offensive sector with two attackers, as in the first game, instead of three, as has been the case in the Libertadores.

Flamengo Lineup


At Flamengo, Filipe Luís also closed doubts about the lineup, choosing Michael to start on the left wing, repeating the formation used at Maracanã. Rubro-Negro goes to the field with:

Rossi; Wesley, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Pulgar, Everton Araújo and Arrascaeta; Gerson, Michael and Gabigol.

With a two-goal lead, Flamengocould even lose by one goal to secure the fifth Brazilian Cup title.
