Renê, left-back and former Flamengo player, has his days numbered at Internacional. Champion of the Brasileirão and Libertadores with Flamengo in 2019, the athlete is not expected to remain at the club from Rio Grande do Sul for the 2025 season. His contract with Internacional runs until the end of 2024, but renewal is considered unlikely .


The tendency is for the player to be part of a "boat" of departures from the club, which , in addition to Renê, should release goalkeeper Fabrício, midfielder Hyoran and striker Lucas Alario, players who also did not perform satisfactorily. These athletes have already aroused the interest of their agents, who are starting to look for new opportunities for 2025.


International is betting on Argentine Alexandro Bernabéi as the main option for left back. Developed by Lanús, Bernabéi is a 24-year-old player who gained brief international experience while playing for Celtic, in Scotland. For the Scottish team, the Argentine participated in 27 matches, scored one goal and contributed three assists. The choice of number 26 indicates Inter's desire to have a younger athlete who can add to the construction of a competitive squad for the future.


During his time at Flamengo, Renê built a remarkable track record, being part of the winning squad that won, among other titles, the Brasileirãoand Libertadores in 2019. Hired in 2017, he played until 2022, totaling 207 games and six goals. In addition to the titles mentioned, the full-back won four Carioca Championships, two Brazilian Super Cups and one Recopa Sudamericana, being a name respected by red and black fans.

Flamengo's departure occurred after the arrival of Ayrton Lucas, a full-back who arrived from Russian football and increased competition in the position under the command of coach Paulo Sousa. The "barge" of departures at Internacional highlights the club's need to restructure its squad, looking for options that can increase performance for the next season.

Psychic Reveals Letters


Psychic Luiz Filho, known for his channel Renascer das Cartas, shared his spiritual predictions for the clash between the Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro teams. According to him, the cards reveal a balanced outlook, but slightly favorable to the home team . " Atlético-MG came with the High Priestess card. This indicates a good understanding of the game and strategic preparation. The club will know how to capitalize on the result and turn it into an advantage," said the psychic.

For the Mais Querido side , the reading was less comfortable : " Flamengo also has a difficult card, which is the "Hanged Man" card, of resilience. They'll need to use their creative side. I see a lot of balance; Atlético-MG will have a good start. Flamengo may struggle, but they'll have a lethal outcome. However, I see more possibilities for Atlético-MG."

Atlético-MG and Flamengo face off this Wednesday (6) in a decisive duel for the round of 16 of the 2025 Copa do Brasil. The match takes place at 7 pm (Brasília time), at Arena MRV, in Belo Horizonte , and will be broadcast live on Sportv and Premiere.


In the first leg, played at Maracanã, the Minas Gerais team won 1-0 and now has the advantage of a draw to secure qualification for the quarterfinals. Meanwhile, Rubro-Negro , coached by Filipe Luís, needs a simple one-goal victory to take the final to penalties. A win by two or more goals will advance directly to the next stage of the tournament.


ATLÉTICO-MG IN GOOD PHASE


Atlético is in good form. Cuca's team has won its last two matches. First, it beat Flamengo 1-0 in the first leg of the round of 16, despite playing away from home. Last weekend, in a Brazilian Championship match, the Minas Gerais team dominated Red Bull Bragantino and emerged with a 2-1 victory.

FLAMENGO HAS SHORTAGES


On the red-and-black side, coach Filipe Luís will have to deal with important absences. Bruno Henrique and Luiz Araújo are not on the roster due to workload constraints, a result of the season's backlog of matches. Flamengo 's mission will be to win with authority away from home to maintain its chance of winning another Copa do Brasil title. The club has won the title in 1990, 2006, 2013, 2022, and 2024.

Arsenal sets price for Gabriel Jesus, striker being approached by Flamengo

The Brazilian national team striker's name was speculated on Mais Querido, but transfer fees and salary make the deal unfeasible.

Given Flamengo's recent difficulties in signing a new number 9, a speculated name has resurfaced among fans: Gabriel Jesus . The Brazilian national team striker, currently at Arsenal in England, has reportedly been placed on the London club's transfer list for the next transfer window.


The asking price is around £30 million (approximately R$191 million at the current exchange rate) . The push for attacking reinforcements gained momentum after rejections from players like Lucas Beltrán and Mehdi Taremi, who opted to remain in European football.


ASTRONOMICAL MARKET VALUE AND WAGES


Despite being one of the most mentioned names by fans on social media and specialized forums, Gabriel Jesus' arrival in Brazilian football is considered extremely unlikely at this time. Arsenal's proposed fee is far above the financial reality of South American football, even for a club with significant investment power like Flamengo .

In addition to the high transfer fee required, the player's current salary—comparable to Premier League standards—would pose an even greater challenge. The English club, seeking to balance its finances and make room for reinforcements in other positions, sees the Brazilian striker as one of its main bargaining chips in the next window.


FLAMENGO REMAINS ON THE MARKET

Flamengo 's board continues to monitor the market for a center forward who fits the profile desired by Filipe Luís's coaching staff. After frustrations in negotiations with players who opted to remain on the Old Continent, the club is seeking viable alternatives that can strengthen the squad without compromising its financial planning.
