The women's Brasileirão promises an exciting season, and Flamengo is ready to start its journey away from home, facing Palmeiras. With a renewed squad and high expectations, defender Thais Regina, one of the fundamental pieces of the red and black team since last year, shared her visions and perspectives for the new challenge.
Like Flamengo, the Palmeiras also went through a reformulation process, hiring new players and strengthening its team. Thais Regina highlighted the quality of the opposing team, highlighting that the debut match will be disputed and will require the best performance from both teams.
The history of Flamengo in the women's Brasileirão shows a title won in 2016, and the expectation of returning to the top of the competition remains alive. With the arrival of strong reinforcements, such as the experienced striker Cristiane, Thais Regina believes that the team is on the right path to seek new achievements.
The defender emphasized Flamengo's investment in seeking titles and the importance of Cristiane's experience and successful trajectory to strengthen the squad. She also highlighted the team's evolution throughout the pre-season and initial competitions, seeing these moments as learning for the challenges to come.
Thais Regina, who has experience as a champion at the base of the Brazilian team, does not hides his desire to represent the country again at the Paris Olympic Games. For her, the path to achieving this goal involves performance and dedication at the clubs, prioritizing success in the national championship as a fundamental step towards a possible call-up.
The council finds its hands tied in negotiations

Pedro's injury was a hard blow for the team, not only because of the impact on performance on the field, but also because of what it means behind the scenes. With a deep and talented cast, Flamengo tends to maintain its competitive level even with absences, thanks to a full bench. However, Pedro's departure raises the question of how the club will fill this gap.
Rumors about possible international reinforcements began to circulate quickly, with names like Memphis Depay, Martial and Mariano Díaz gaining prominence in the press. However, Flamengo's board is taking a cautious approach. According to information from UOL, two main factors are guiding the club's strategy: the performance of the players already available and the budget situation.
Firstly, Flamengo is evaluating the ability of its current players to cover Pedro's absence. Among the possible replacements, Gabigol, Bruno Henrique and Carlinhos are mentioned as viable options. These players have a history of good performance and familiarity with the style of play Flamengo, which could facilitate adaptation and minimize the impact of Pedro's injury.
In addition, the club's financial situation is a crucial point in the decision. With more than R$329 million invested in recent signings, Flamengo has already committed a significant part of its budget. This amount is just a little below the R$360.9 million spent in 2019, when President Rodolfo Landim made large investments. The high financial burden of previous signings implies a more restrictive management of available resources.
Flamengo's board also faces difficulties in relation to the sale of players, which further impacts the budget. Negotiations for transfers of Wesley and Fabrício Bruno did not progress as expected, resulting in a lower than desired performance in player sales. This limits the club's ability to invest in new reinforcements, especially in a competitive market.

On Monday (2), a new commission was formed with the aim of discussing the implementation of Financial Fair Play in Brazil. The group is made up of clubs such as Flamengo and Palmeiras, who are looking for ways to adapt the rule to the particularities of national football. Leila Pereira, president of Palmeiras, was one of the strongest voices in the discussion. In a blunt statement, she called for more responsibility from club boards in financial management. Pereira highlighted that Financial Fair Play should not be seen just as a rule to be complied with, but as an essential tool to guarantee the sustainability of teams.
Financial Fair Play, created by UEFA, aims to control club spending and ensure that they do not spend more than they earn, promoting more balanced financial management. The idea is to prevent clubs from taking on excessive debt and guarantee a fairer level of competition between teams. The formation of the commission with Flamengo, Palmeiras and other clubs signals a significant step in the attempt to implement these rules more effectively in Brazil. The proposal is to discuss and adjust the rule so that it better fits the reality of Brazilian clubs, which face unique financial challenges.
FLAMENGO HAS "EYES OPEN"The main objective of commission is to establish guidelines that help control club spending without harming growth and investment in football. The intention is to create a balance between the need for investment to improve the teams and the obligation to maintain the financial health of the clubs.
Leila Pereira, in her statement, made an appeal for club boards to be more responsible and transparent in their management. She highlighted that compliance with financial rules must be a priority for all clubs and that it is essential that everyone is committed to more responsible management.
