The defender Léo Pereira, from Flamengo, is in the middle of a fierce legal dispute with his former teammate, Tainá Castro . The differences include custody of the children and authorization for Tainá to move with the children to Spain, where her current husband, Real Madrid player Éder Militão, lives. According to reports, Tainá accuses Léo of not attending a crucial hearing and of hindering the legal processes.


"For my part, always I tried to maintain a friendly relationship for the sake of the children. But, lately, even in the courts we are facing communication difficulties", declared Tainá. She claims that Léo failed to comply with an agreement to pay off a residence, allegedly communicating a change of plans in recent messages. The athlete would have chosen to continue paying for the house in installments, instead of paying it off in full, as agreed.




LÉO PEREIRA'S ADVISER SPEAKS OUT ON THE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In response to the accusations, Léo Pereira's office clarified that there are only two processes in progress, contrary to what was disclosed. One of them deals with child custody and already has a conciliation hearing scheduled. The second refers to authorization to move to Madrid, a process in which Léo claims he has not yet been formally cited due to an outdated address provided by Tainá.


In addition, Mengão player's defense assures that he has not avoided justice and states that alimony payments are being paid regularly. As for the property, the advisor informs that the transfer to Tainá's name is in the final stages at the registry office, and that the delay is attributed to bureaucratic procedures.


MOVING TO SPAIN AS A POINT OF CONFLICT

Tainá, who already lives in Spain, reiterated her desire to take her children to the country. According to her, conversations with Léo on the topic have been fruitless, leading to new developments in the judicial sphere. "My goal has always been to live in Spain with my children, and this has already been discussed with Léo. However, he continues to create obstacles and does not grant authorization. Therefore, I took legal action, and it was exactly on this issue that he failed to attend audience", he concluded.

Living a special moment on and off the field, Arrascaeta received great news in his personal life : Flamengo's number 10 will be a father for the first time . This Monday (1st), the star revealed that his wife Camila Bastiani is pregnant with a boy.


On social media, the couple posted the news with the caption: "We're waiting for you, son," accompanied by a blue heart, symbolizing the baby's gender . The pregnancy had already been announced on June 30, indicating that the Flamengo midfielder's son is at least three months old.


BEST MOMENT ON AND OFF THE FIELD


The arrival of his first child comes during one of the most memorable years of Arrascaeta's career. By 2025, the Uruguayan has 17 goals and 13 assists in 42 games, figures that put him close to equaling his career-best scoring record for Flamengo , set in 2019 with 18 goals. In terms of assists, his goal is to surpass the 19 he recorded in both 2019 and 2022.

Last Sunday (31), against Grêmio, the number 10 shone again. After exchanging passes with Pedro, he gave a subtle touch, almost like a "snooker shot", leaving no chance for goalkeeper Tiago Volpi . Despite the beauty of the goal, the afternoon ended in a draw, as the opposing goalkeeper himself converted the penalty that decreed the 1-1 draw at Maracanã.


WHEN WILL ARRASCAETA PLAY AGAIN?

Now, Arrascaeta focuses on defending the Uruguayan National Team in the World Cup Qualifiers . The next commitment will be on Thursday (4), against Peru, at the Centenario Stadium, in Montevideo. Next, on September 9, Uruguay faces Chile, in Santiago.

In a comfortable position in the standings, La Celeste needs just one point out of a possible six to mathematically confirm its place in the World Cup. So far, Argentina, Ecuador, and Brazil have already secured their place , while Chile is the only team with no chance of qualifying.

The lawyers also emphasized that all obligations are documented and proven in court. "All payments have been duly made and proven in court. The information disclosed is not true. The athlete reaffirms his commitment to transparency and warns that any false publication that affects his honor or that of his family will be subject to appropriate legal action," the statement added.


DEFENDER MAINTAINS PREPARATION

While dealing with legal issues, Léo Pereira continues to work normally with the Flamengo squad.

Samba lost one of its greatest references this Friday (8): Arlindo Cruz passed away at the age of 66 in Rio de Janeiro. Recognized for his vast work with 795 registered compositions, the samba singer marked generations with hits such as “Saudade Louca” and “Boto Meu Povo na Rua” . Born in Madureira, the birthplace of Rio samba, Arlindo was also a passionate Flamengo fan.


His retirement from the stage occurred after suffering a stroke in 2017, which impacted his career and health. Family members confirmed his death, without disclosing the official cause, but emphasized the artist's cultural legacy and his love for soccer, especially for the "Mais Querido" (Most Beloved). The wake will be open to the Rio de Janeiro community.


MUSICAL TRAJECTORY AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO SAMBA


The son of Arlindão, who had meetings with samba artists like Candeia at home, Arlindo Cruz immersed himself in the musical world from an early age. At 17, he began his professional career as a cavaquinho player on Candeia's 1975 album "Roda de Samba." Over time, he became known for his mastery of the banjo, an instrument he helped popularize in samba and which became his trademark.

A central figure in the founding of the Cacique de Ramos samba circle, the musician rubbed shoulders with greats such as Zeca Pagodinho and Jorge Aragão. With Fundo de Quintal, a legendary samba group, he recorded 10 albums that helped cement the genre . From the 1990s onward, he developed a solo career with successful albums such as "Arlindinho" (1993) and important collaborations with producer Sombrinha.


ROOTS IN MADUREIRA AND A PASSION FOR FLAMENGO

Madureira, a neighborhood that forged its cultural and musical identity, was the setting for compositions that celebrated everyday life, street smarts, and the richness of Rio's samba. A strong connection to Flamengo was present in his daily life: Arlindo frequented the Maracanã stadium, participated in club events, and received tributes on special occasions , cementing his status as a Flamengo icon.
