ATTENTION! PEDRO WILL BE RE-EVALUATED BY THE FLAMENGO PHYSIOLOGY DEPARTMENT AND SHOULD RETURN TO THE HOME TEAM IN THE CLASSIC AGAINST BOTAFOGO

A former Flamengo target in the primeira window of the year, is almost certainly a rival from Rio. This is because Botafogo overcame previous difficulties with Udinese and is still in the process of signing Matheus Martins, a 21-year-old striker. The operation will cost 10 million euros (R$ 60 million), with a further 2 million euros in bonuses, for 90% of the attacker's economic rights.

Only the athlete's signature separates the negotiation from being assured officially, but both parties already consider the operation as done.

Flamengo even negotiated with the striker, while he was on vacation in Rio de Janeiro. Some meetings took place, but there was no agreement with the Europeans. Another point was that at the time of the red-black attack, the player had the desire to continue in Europe.

So far, the rubro-negro< /a> has not signed any players since the start of the transfer window. The attempts with midfielder Marcos Antônio were unsuccessful and the Rio club ended up taking a beating from São Paulo, which signed the player. So far, the only name in which Flamengo is negotiating is with midfielder Claudinho, from Zenit, in Russia. Despite the Russians' tough game, everything is fine between the player and Flamengo.

Last Wednesday (24), striker Carlinhos secured three points for Flamengo over Vitória. Due to his way of celebrating, the player received the nickname "Bellingham da Gávea" from the red-black fans. Thus, the athlete commented on the joke.

"For me: Ronaldo, Romário and Adriano, I'm a big fan of them and I always try to imitate them. I know there's a lot missing. And I like the fans because they're creative: “it's Adriano Imperador's Avatar”, “Bellingham da Gávea”… That's cool. Here, for the guys, I'm the “thunder” because a partner of mine said: “Can I make a stop at your boot”? forget it", he said, in an interview with FlaTV.

In addition to commenting on the fans' joke, Carlinhos also spoke about the meaning of the way he celebrates goals as a Flamengo player.

"I came from an evangelical family, and at home there were a lot of evangelical films. Even though my name is Carlos Moisés, I always liked the opposite side, which is Pharaoh Ramses . My mother would scold me, I would put my hand on my waist (laughs)", he said, before finishing:

"When I grew up, I always did this to her: “Mom, Ramses has arrived”. In this review I told my brothers that this was going to be the celebration. My posture was stupid, but it was more to provoke my mother. This position he takes is one of authority, a bit harshly, I identified with the celebration", he concluded.

So, with Carlinhos at his disposal, Flamengo started preparation for the clash against Atlético-GO this Friday afternoon (26). The game will be on Sunday (28), valid for the 20th round of the Brasileirão, at 4pm.

The Copa América has come to an end and Flamengo will see the return of the Uruguayan quartet for the remainder of the season. The players' reappearance is scheduled for this coming Tuesday (16). Therefore, upon return, the Red and Black Medical Department will give special attention to Matías Viña.

According to information from the GE, the Flamengomaintained daily contacts with the medical department of Uruguay in order to find out the situation of your players. During the analyses, Mais Querido learned that Viña had muscle fatigue throughout the competition. Thus, the left-back will be closely watched by the red and black DM.

Now, after 1 month suffering from absences, Tite will have this week the full cast. Arrascaeta, De La Cruz, Viña and Varela will undergo a medical reevaluation at the CT this Tuesday (16), to understand the athletes' physical conditions. If they are in adequate condition, they will return to training with the rest of the squad.

Last Saturday (13), the 17th round of the Brasileirão began and will only end on Wednesday (17). However, the Flamengo will not take the field in the round, as the clash against Internacional was postponed by the CBF due to the delayed commitments of the team from Rio Grande do Sul in the Copa do Brasil and Copa Sudamericana.

So, with the complete squad, Tite begins this Monday (15) the team's preparation for the game against Criciúma. The clash will be at 4pm, at Mané Garrincha, on the 20th. Mais Querido needs to win to return to the lead of the Brasileirão.
