Marcos Braz and Bruno Spindel are traveling through Europe together. Flamengo's vice-president and president of the football department are not on vacation. In fact, the 'European tour' is exclusively so that they can negotiate with different teams regarding their players, looking for those who are the best fit to reinforce Mais Querido. Check out some of his goals:



MATÍAS VIÑA - ROMA


The left-back is one of Tite's requests for his squad and this wish is already fulfilled. The player who was defending Sassuolo (ITA) has already completed his transfer to Flamengo and must sign a contract for five years, until the end of 2028. 


After a long negotiation, it was possible to close the treaty , in recent days, with the representatives going to Rome, Italy, to visit the Roma board, which is the club that held the star's economic rights. The conversations started over the phone and ended up getting cold. They even managed to reduce the offer, paying less than expected for the Uruguayan.

Initially, the Italians were adamant, asking for 10 million euros (R$53.3 million), while Flamengo had offered 6 million euros (R$32.1 million). After many conversations, both parties had to give in, reaching an agreement worth 8 million euros (R$42.8 million), plus 1 million euros (R$5.3 million) in bonuses per title: 50% for the Brazilian and 50% for the Libertadores.



LUIZ HENRIQUE - REAL BETIS

While Matías Viña's case with Roma was a success, this does not seem to be the case with Flamengo's negotiation with Real Betis (ESP) for Brazilian Luiz Henrique. Braz and Spindel also spent time in Seville, Spain, with the idea that they would be able to arrange the loan, with a mandatory purchase clause.

However, arriving in Andalusia, the representatives were faced with the news that the Spanish did not wish to loan the 23-year-old star but wanted to sell him. And the value is not low. They are asking for 18 million euros (almost R$98 million, at the current price).

Even with the departure of the directors, the Betis board was not convinced and, even though Fla did not give up, they intend to stretch the rope until the last days of the window. The player's staff welcomes his return to Brazil, but maintains his stay in Europe as a preference.


AL-MUSRATI - BRAGA

Another negotiation that, apparently , is more positive for the Rubro-negro side is that of the Libyan Al-Musrati. The directors of Mais Querido met with António Salvador, president of Braga, recently, to talk about Al-Musrati.

The conversations took place at a dinner, at Restaurante Arcoense, in Portugal, as can be seen on the networks of the establishment, where they shared a photograph of the three representatives together. It was pointed out by the Brazilian press that Braga should agree to release the midfielder on a season-long loan, with an option to purchase.


While In Brazil, Flamengo continues to try to sign Léo Ortiz. Bragantino is willing to reduce the price required to purchase the defender. The value, which was previously 12 million euros (around 65 million reais, at current prices), was reduced to 10 million euros (R$54 million). However, Flamengo still wants to pay less.

Flamengo and Mirassol face each other this Saturday (09), at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã, for the 19th round of the Brasileirão. Rubro-Negro arrives at the clash after being eliminated in the Copa do Brasil, with the mission of winning to maintain the leadership of the competition. On the other side, they will have an opponent motivated by a campaign above all expectations .


LEADER AGAINST SURPRISE


Flamengo has 37 points, the same number as Cruzeiro, but leads on goal difference (24 to 19) and still has a game in hand over the Minas Gerais team. A victory at Maracanã will guarantee the Rio de Janeiro club the top of the table at the end of the first round .


Mirassol, meanwhile, is the big revelation in this Série A. In its debut season, the São Paulo team sits fifth with 28 points— the result of seven wins, seven draws, and only two losses in 16 matches . Interestingly, it's the team with the fewest losses in the championship, along with Flamengo . With a victory, the newcomer could enter the top four of the competition.

MIRASSOL MOMENT


If Flamengo wins this Saturday, it will end Mirassol's three-month unbeaten streak. The São Paulo team's last loss was to Red Bull Bragantino on May 5th . Since then, Rafael Guanaes's team has won six and drawn three, with an impressive 77% success rate.

Initial projections pointed to a relegation battle, due to an experienced squad, an average age over 29, and several well-known names, such as midfielder Gabriel, formerly of Flamengo . However, the team's performance in the first round exceeded expectations: third-best attack (27 goals) and sixth-best defense (16 conceded), in addition to good results against more popular opponents.

KNOWN ROUTE

Despite this, the strategy against Flamengo should follow the usual visiting team strategy at Maracanã: a defensive posture, deep lines, and a reliance on counterattacks . Flamengo, in turn, should control possession and look for spaces to create the chances that will secure the victory.

This Friday (8), Vitória confirmed the arrival of left-back Ramon Ramos , who is on loan from Internacional until the end of the 2025 season . The signing aims to fill the gap left by the serious ankle fracture of Jamerson, the starter in the position.


At 24 years old, Ramon played 12 games for Colorado this season , but lost his place after the arrival of coach Roger Machado. Discovered by Flamengo , the athlete has spells at clubs such as RB Bragantino, Olympiacos (Greece), Espanyol (Spain) and Cuiabá, but was unable to establish himself definitively in the professional ranks.


RAMON RAMOS SEEKS TO RECOVER FOOTBALL


Signed by Internacional in early 2025, Ramon left the Rio Grande do Sul club after a limited run of appearances and without contributing directly with goals or assists. His last official match was on June 12 , making the loan to Vitória an opportunity to regain confidence and performance.

Raised at Flamengo , Ramon was a promising youngster but didn't achieve the same level of success as a professional. In 2023, the full-back was sold to Olympiacos for €1.5 million (approximately R$8 million at the time), but he is still seeking stability in his career.


RAMON'S LOAN TO VITÓRIA

With Jamerson out for a long time due to a serious injury, coach Fábio Carille was relying solely on young Maykon Jesus at left-back. Ramon's arrival could bring experience and quality to the team , which is looking to escape the relegation zone in the Brazilian Championship.

Tarot reader Luiz Filho, responsible for the channel “Renascer das Cartas”, carried out a spiritual analysis of the next duel between Mirassol and Flamengo, scheduled for Saturday (10), for the Brazilian Championship. According to the cards consulted, the game promises to be open, with chances of goals for both teams, and a slight favoritism for the team from Rio de Janeiro , as long as they know how to capitalize on the opportunities that arise during the 90 minutes.


For the Mais Querido, the "Lovers" and "3 of Cups" cards were associated with clarity of decision-making, positive transformations, and greater collective harmony. Luiz Filho interprets these signs as an indication that Flamengo will be able to make the right choices during the match , improve its ball possession, and execute its offensive attacks more efficiently.


Flamengo , with some changes and choices, can evolve in the game, something they have been striving for a lot, ” highlighted the tarot reader, who also stressed the need for an expressive performance for the team to establish itself.


ANALYSIS POINTS OUT DIFFICULTIES

For Mirassol, the "Death" card was interpreted as an indication of challenges and changes that could hinder the São Paulo team's performance. Although the team is resolutely attacking, Luiz Filho warned of potential defensive weakness, with plenty of space open to the opponent.


THE GAME PROMISES TO BE OPEN

The card representing the match as a whole was number "4," signaling a close encounter in which both teams should launch attacks , providing a dynamic spectacle and scoring opportunities for both sides. However, the cards indicating Flamengo 's performance showed more promising aspects, suggesting a slight favoritism for the Rio de Janeiro team.
