This Wednesday morning, Junior Pedroso, the striker's manager Gabigol, and Marcos Braz, Flamengo's football vice-president, spoke to calm the situation after the player's temporary withdrawal from the match against Atlético-MG, which will take place at Maracanã.

The decision to remove Gabigol from Flamengo's lineup brought tension between the athlete and the football department, but the initial meeting between Braz and Pedroso aimed to dispel any misunderstanding and handle the situation calmly. With the face-to-face meeting scheduled, the club and the player's representative hope to reach a solution that guarantees a positive transition for all parties involved, maintaining the focus on the interests of Flamengo and the athlete.

Gabigol's absence in the match with Atlético-MG reignited speculation about the player's continuation at Flamengo. However, close sources claim that the conversation between Marcos Braz and Junior Pedroso was friendly and productive. The situation with Flamengo's number 99, one of the greatest scorers in the club's recent history, is being carefully evaluated by the football department, which understands the athlete's importance to the team and his connection with the fans.

Flamengo and the player's agent discuss, in a transparent manner, the next steps for Gabigol's future, considering since his stay until a possible official farewell later this season.

ATTACKER GETS INVOLVED IN CONTROVERSY

The planning for a possible farewell to Gabigol at Flamengo is already starting to take shape, but, according to the latest conversations, it is not ruled out that the attacker still plays for Rubro-Negro. Junior Pedroso and Marcos Braz agreed that, before any definitive decision is made, a face-to-face meeting will be held, in which they will discuss the details surrounding this decision.

Gabigol built a remarkable history with Flamengo, being a key player in important titles, such as the 2019 Copa Libertadores. Thus , the club seeks to conduct any possible transition with respect to its trajectory and the player's identification with the red and black fans.

One point What has been clarified internally is that Gabigol's removal was a decision made by Flamengo's football department and not by other players. Initial information suggested that Filipe Luís, teammate and leader of the squad, had requested Gabigol's absence from the squad, but official sources deny this version.

The decision was strategic and technical, made exclusively by the Flamengo committee, aiming to adjust the team for the confrontation with Atlético-MG. Transparency in the dialogue between club and player is seen as essential to avoid misinterpretations about Gabigol's relationship with the cast and management.

GABIGOL HAS AN INDEFINITE FUTURE

Marcos Braz and Junior Pedroso reinforced that the focus is on maintaining a good relationship between Gabigol and Flamengo, regardless of the outcome of the conversations. The in-person meeting will be an opportunity to discuss details that still remain to be defined, including the possibility of a symbolic farewell for the athlete, if his departure is confirmed.

Gabigol is one of the most emblematic players in the current squad and, if there is a farewell, Flamengo is studying how to do it in a way that respect its historical role. In parallel, the technical committee is working on alternatives for the lineup, such as the formation with three defenders, used to compensate for the striker's absence against Atlético-MG.
