In training, coach Filipe Luís has rotated the squad and given space to young people from Ninho do Urubu, among them Ryan Roberto , an attacking midfielder of just 17 years old, considered one of the main jewels of the red-black base.
In the activity this Monday (8), held at CT Ninho do Urubu, Ryan trained with the professionals, participating in the technical and tactical work led by the coach. This was the first time that the jewel joined coach Filipe Luís' team .
Filipe Luís isn't new to including young players in the first team's activities. Before taking over the senior team, he worked with Flamengo 's under-17 and under-20 teams, winning important titles such as the Rio Under-17 Cup and the 2024 Under-20 World Cup , which he won against Olympiacos at the Maracanã stadium. Therefore, the coach is well acquainted with the club's promising talent.
Considered one of the biggest bets in the youth academy, Ryan Roberto already has a contract until 2027 and a release clause set at 50 million euros (around R$318 million), as a way of protecting himself from possible approaches from European football.

Flamengo's Bruno Henrique's suspension due to the betting case at the Superior Court of Justice (STJD) continues to be a hot topic among fans and sports commentators. The most notable aspect was the number of games he was suspended for: 12 matches, which experts consider low , especially compared to similar punishments in Brazilian soccer.
André Rizek on Bruno Henrique, from Flamengo: "What Bruno Henrique did is different"
The issue quickly gained prominence on sports programs and social media , raising discussions about the proportionality of the decision, especially considering the most recent cases involving sports betting in Brazil.
On SporTV, journalist André Rizek analyzed the case critically and highlighted that many comparisons are being made incorrectly: “There is confusion, as some people are using completely different cases to compare the punishment received by BH ,” he stated.
For Rizek, it's important to differentiate the type of infraction committed: "What's very clear to me is that it's not the same thing. What Bruno Henrique did is different from a player harming his own club, acting on behalf of a criminal organization to make a profit . These are different things that can't be lumped together," the journalist concluded.
Despite being suspended for 12 rounds in the Brasileirão, Bruno Henrique remains free to compete in the Libertadores , as the punishment only applies to competitions organized by the CBF (such as the Brasileirão and Copa do Brasil).
Journalist Venê Casagrande explained the situation: "Many people will ask: is there an appeal? Yes, there is. And Flamengo has already decided to appeal the decision because internally the club wasn't happy with the result. They understand that 12 games is a very severe punishment. It's worth remembering: the Libertadores isn't included because it's a CONMEBOL tournament ," he stated.
