The Flamengo has another reinforcement for the sequence of the season. Alex Sandro, 33-year-old left-back, had his name published in the CBF's Daily Newsletter (BID) this Friday, which means that he is already regularized and able to play for the club. Now, it is up to coach Tite to assess whether the player is in adequate physical condition to be selected for the match against Corinthians, on Sunday, in the 25th round of the Brazilian Championship.

The arrival of Alex Sandro to Flamengo is seen with optimism by the board and technical committee , who believe that the player can add experience and quality to the team. The full-back, who spent the last eight years at Juventus, arrives at the Rio club with the mission of reinforcing the left side of the defense, a position that has been a point of attention for the team.

FLAMENGO COUNTS ON ALEX SANDRO AT IDB

The player arrived in Rio de Janeiro this Friday morning and went straight to the club's facilities, where he underwent medical examinations and began the necessary procedures for his regularization. Expectations surrounding his debut are high, and the possibility of him already being on the field against Corinthians depends on his physical condition, as Alex Sandro still needs to undergo more detailed assessments from the technical committee.

In one of his first statements as a player for Flamengo, Alex Sandro made a point of mentioning Filipe Luís, another experienced left-back in the red and black squad. According to him, Filipe is an example of professionalism and competence, and was an important reference during his career, both in the Brazilian team and at Atlético de Madrid. Alex Sandro highlighted the admiration he has for his colleague and stated that he always carefully observed Filipe's style of play to learn and evolve in his own performance.
