After winning five titles in one year, Jorge Jesus left Flamengo to sign with Benfica. Therefore, the nostalgia among fans is practically unanimous. However, for the club's presidential candidate, Delair Dumbrosck, he would have problems working with the coach. Furthermore, Delair also commented that he did not agree with the way in which Mister arrived at Mais Querido in 2019, and told Tite of his plans if he is elected.
“We were champions in 2009 with Andrade, who was a coach that we hired, he was not the coach of the Brazilian team, but the club had command. In my opinion, regardless of any coach, there has to be a coach who, if I am in the presidency, we would have to talk about managing the squad (Jorge). Jesus)... We worked with Andrade because we had a permanent committee. When Cuca left, we put Andrade, the permanent committee into action and we resolved the problem", said Delair Dumbrosck.
"When Jorge Jesus came, the first thing he did was eliminate the permanent commission. When he left, we, the president, will return with the permanent commission so as not to take that risk. About Tite, whether he stays or not, that's all. the results will tell. He's an excellent coach, he has a great coaching staff, but only the results will tell", added Delair in an interview with the Coluna do Fla podcast.
DELAIR WAS BRAZILIAN CHAMPION IN 2009
It is worth remembering that Delair Dumbrosck took over from Márcio Braga in 2009. Thus, the former leader of Mais Querido won his sixth title, with a show by Petkovic and Adriano Imperador.

The year 2025 has been remarkable for Wallace Yan, full of ups and downs. At the beginning of the season, the young striker was promoted to Flamengo's professional team. In June, he shone by scoring against Chelsea in the Club World Cup semi-final . However, this Wednesday (06), he experienced the most difficult moment of his short career when he missed a penalty kick in the team's elimination from the Copa do Brasil .
Wallace Yan after Flamengo's elimination from the Copa do Brasil: "I apologize to the Nation"
After the setback against Atlético-MG, Wallace took to social media to speak out. In an Instagram post, the number 64 apologized to the red-and-black fans: " Life taught me to bounce back, to see that after the storm the sun shines, that the pain doesn't last forever . Just believe. I apologize to the Nation and will do everything to give you the joy you deserve," the player wrote.
Wallace came close to being the protagonist of the qualifying round. In the 36th minute of the second half, he nearly scored after a deflected ball in the box, but was unable to finish. Flamengo defeated Atlético-MG 1-0 in regulation time, tying the match on aggregate. In the penalty shootout, Samuel Lino and Wallace Yan missed , and the Minas Gerais team advanced to the quarterfinals.
In addition to the missed penalty, the young man also engaged in provocative exchanges with opponents , which generated repercussions. Even so, he was one of the match's standout players, actively participating. Hulk and Lyanco publicly complained about the player's actions.
After the elimination, coach Filipe Luís came to the striker's defense: " He has a lot of personality. He doesn't hide, he'll take on anyone . He's been the center of attention, but Lyanco isn't a saint, and neither are Everson or Hulk. Provocations are part of the game. In high-level football, no one accepts losing. As long as there's no violence, he's in. Wallace played a great game and executed the game plan. He has personality and a bright future ahead of him," the coach stated.
Wallace Yan will have the chance to get back on his feet next Saturday (09), when Flamengo faces Mirassol, at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã , for the 19th round of the Brazilian Championship. The match is worth remaining at the top of the competition, and could mark a new chapter in the young striker's trajectory with the red-black shirt.

Conmebol has defined the refereeing for the match between Flamengo and Internacional , valid for the first leg of the round of 16 of the 2025 Copa Libertadores da América. The match will take place on August 13th, at Maracanã, and will be officiated by an all-Argentine team.
The referee will be Dario Herrera, an experienced and respected figure in South American football .

The selection of an all-Argentine team reflects CONMEBOL's efforts to ensure impartiality, consistency, and neutrality , especially considering this is a matchup between two Brazilian clubs with a long history in the competition. Flamengo and Internacional have already played remarkable matches in the Copa Libertadores—constantly evenly matched and packed with excitement.
Flamengo and Internacional met for the first time in the Copa Libertadores in 2019, also in the round of 16. In the first leg, played at Maracanã on August 21, Flamengo won 2-0, with Bruno Henrique scoring both goals and leading a strong collective performance.
In the return leg, at Beira-Rio, Internacional took the lead with a goal from Rodrigo Lindoso, but Gabigol scored the equalizer, making it 1-1 and securing Flamengo's qualification with an aggregate score of 3-1. That match was part of the historic campaign that culminated in the second Libertadores title, ending a 38-year drought for the Rio de Janeiro club in the competition.
A full house is expected at Maracanã, with the red-and-black fans supporting from the first minute . On the other hand, Internacional arrives motivated, looking for a positive result away from home to decide the spot in Porto Alegre the following week.
