Charly Alcaraz, Flamengo's Argentine midfielder, has shown his quality on the field and gained the trust of coach Filipe Luís. Recently, the player began to assume a more central role in the team, especially with the absences of De La Cruz, Arrascaeta and Gerson. In the next clash against Cruzeiro, in the Brasileirão, Alcaraz will be responsible for the team's formation, an opportunity to reinforce his role in the red and black squad.
O Flamengo is increasingly betting on Charly Alcaraz to make up for the absence of its main playmakers. Since arriving at the club, the Argentine has been working to adapt to the team's style of play and, under the command of Filipe Luís, has found opportunities to stand out. With De La Cruz, Arrascaeta and Gerson out of action, Alcaraz gets a new chance to take responsibility for creating plays and managing the red and black midfield.
ALCARAZ HAS CONQUERED SPACE
Coach Filipe Luís has been satisfied with Charly Alcaraz's performance in training and the opportunities the player had on the field. Although the coach values the Argentine's skills, he still highlights that Alcaraz needs greater rapport with the squad for his performance to reach maximum potential. Filipe Luís believes that this adaptation will be fundamental for the midfielder to play a leadership role within the team, especially in decisive moments such as the next clash against Cruzeiro.
The next duel against Cruzeiro in the Brasileirão represents an important challenge for Flamengo and, mainly, for Charly Alcaraz. With the responsibility of commanding the midfield, the player will have the chance to show his ability to organize and distribute the game, in addition to collaborating with the team in the search for victory. Alcaraz's performance in this match could be decisive in consolidating his position in the team and reinforcing the coach's and fans' confidence in his potential.
FLAMENGO HAS A NEW MODEL FOR USING ALCARAZ
The absences of De La Cruz, Arrascaeta and Gerson left an open space in the red and black midfield, and Alcaraz was chosen to fill it. This chance comes at a crucial moment for the Argentine, who is still searching for his permanent place in the Flamengo. For the player, this is a golden opportunity to showcase his talent and establish himself as an important player in Filipe Luís' squad, who believes in Alcaraz's development to take on greater responsibilities within the club.

Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (06), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), to face Atlético-MG, at Arena MRV, in a decisive clash for the round of 16 of the Copa Betano do Brasil . With an eye on the sixth title of the competition, Rubro-Negro sees the duel as a key moment for the season.
Beyond its sporting significance, the match could mark a symbolic milestone for Filipe Luís. Since taking over the team in October 2024, the former full-back has been a key player in an attacking and effective Flamengo team. According to Sofascore data, under his leadership, the team has scored 98 goals in 58 matches , an average of 1.69 goals per match. Now, the club is just two goals away from reaching the 100-goal mark under the current coach.
Uruguayan Giorgian De Arrascaeta is the leading scorer of the "Filipinho Era," with 16 goals, and is a pillar of the team in the finals. Luiz Araújo and Bruno Henrique have also been excelling and are among the top scorers of the period, bolstering the red-and-black's attacking prowess.
With a skilled squad, solid performance, and a thriving attack, Flamengo arrives confidently to face Galo and fight for a spot in the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals. Mengão needs to win by two goals to qualify without resorting to penalty kicks, which would guarantee the coach his centennial milestone.
ATLÉTICO-MG: Everson; Saravia, Lyanco, Junior Alonso and Arana (Scarpa); Alexsander, Alan Franco, Scarpa (Igor Gomes); Ron, Hulk and Cuello. Coach: Cuca
FLAMENGO: Rossi; Emerson Royal, Leo Ortiz, Leo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Allan, Jorginho, Arrascaeta; Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino and Pedro. Coach: Filipe Luis
Despite interest from European clubs, Mengão guarantees that it has not received any official proposal and that the player remains in the club's plans.

Defender Léo Ortiz has once again been linked in Europe, this time as a potential target for Sporting Clube de Portugal . According to Portuguese broadcaster SIC Notícias, the club is considering submitting a proposal in the region of €15 million, plus bonuses, to try to convince Flamengo to release the defender.
However, sources at the Rio de Janeiro club consulted by this report state that Flamengo has no interest in negotiating Léo Ortiz at this time, and that the player himself also has no desire to leave the club. Flamengo's board considers the defender an important player in the squad and intends to keep him for the remainder of the season.
When contacted by Sporting insiders, the response was straightforward: "Unlikely. The Portuguese club would have to sell one of the defenders. I don't think they'll buy any more ." This indicates that, although there is speculation surrounding Ortiz's name, there are no concrete negotiations at this time.
According to our findings, no official offer has yet reached Flamengo, reinforcing that, at least for now, the defender remains 100% focused on the Rubro-Negro. In fact, the Mais Querido is considering entering the market for a defender.
Flamengo recently received an official offer from RB Leipzig of Germany for defender Léo Ortiz two weeks ago. The offer was around €15 million (approximately R$95.6 million), with €12 million fixed and €3 million tied to targets. However, Flamengo promptly rejected the offer.

Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (06) to face Atlético-MG, in the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. The match will be played at Arena MRV, at 7 pm (Brasília time), and will be refereed by Gaucho Rafael Klein , according to the schedule defined by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF).
The organization also confirmed the entire refereeing team for the decisive match. The assistant referees will be Bruno Raphael Pires (GO) and Rafael da Silva Alves (RS) . The video referee will be Wagner Reway (SC). This will be Flamengo 's second match with Rafael Klein in charge.
So far, Rafael Klein has refereed only one Flamengo match this season: the 2-1 victory over Vitória in early April in the Brasileirão . In the Copa do Brasil, he was on the field last week for the goalless draw between CSA and Vasco in the first leg of the third round.
In the first match between Flamengo and Atlético-MG, played at Maracanã, the Red-Blacks had the majority of possession but failed to find the net. The Minas Gerais team capitalized on a mistake by Léo Pereira when clearing the ball and scored through Cuello , securing a 1-0 lead.
With the defeat in the first leg, Flamengo needs to beat Atlético-MG by two or more goals to guarantee direct qualification. If they win by one goal, the decision will be on penalties . This Wednesday's duel (06) starts at 7 pm, at Arena MRV, in Belo Horizonte.
