Flamengo reported, on afternoon this Friday (25), that Carlinhos has a physical problem and will be missing from the team in the duel with Juventude this Saturday (26). Despite this, the athlete will be able to return to the pitch soon to reinforce the red and black squad. The injury to Carlinhos' right thigh adductor was diagnosed as mild, grade 1.
This means that the attacker should not delay to be available to Flamengo's technical committee and resume the training routine. The number 22 should return against Cruzeiro, on November 6th.
CARLINHOS NUMBERS AT FLAMENGO
Since being signed by Flamengo,Carlinhos has played 16 matches, scoring two goals. In total, the athlete spent 523 minutes on the field wearing the ‘Sacred Mantle’. Thus, the last time the striker entered the field was in the defeat against Grêmio. On that occasion, the former Nova Iguaçu player was expelled.
CARLINHOS LOST SPACE
If on the one hand Tite saw Carlinhos as an alternative to replace Pedro, the player lost space after Filipe Luís a> move up to Flamengo's main team. Thus, the former full-back bets on Gabigol in command of the Red-Black attack to try to recover the number 99 shirt.

MISSAGE IN THE BRAZILIAN CUP
In addition to the games against Juventude and Internacional, for the Brasileirão, Carlinhos will also be left out of the duels with Atlético-MG, for the Copa do Brasil. This is because the attacker has already played in the national knockout stage wearing the Nova Iguaçu shirt. Therefore, he cannot enter the field for Flamengo in the competition.
Even though he has recovered from his knee injury, Lucas Moura will not face Mais Querido this Saturday (13th round of the Brasileirão) as he is still following a physical schedule.

São Paulo will have an important absence in the match against Flamengo this Saturday (13), at Maracanã, at 4:30 pm. Although he was expected to return to the team , Lucas Moura will remain out of action. According to the club, the attacking midfielder is still under physical preparation care, despite being clinically recovered from a knee injury.
Lucas Moura hasn't played an official match since May 6th . Although his knee problem has been overcome, the medical department and coaching staff understand that he still needs more time to regain physical conditioning before returning to action. Therefore, his return to action for the São Paulo team will remain postponed.
In addition to the absence of the number 7, São Paulo will be without Lucas Ferreira (with hip pain), Luciano, Luiz Gustavo, and Calleri, all ruled out by the medical department. The match will also mark Hernán Crespo's return to the team , precisely against the league leaders, in the return of the competition after the Club World Cup.
The São Paulo team's likely starting lineup features significant changes. Crespo is expected to field Rafael; Arboleda, Alan Franco, and Sabino (or Ferraresi); Cédric, Alisson, Bobadilla, Marcos Antônio, and Enzo Díaz; Oscar (or Juan Dinenno), and André Silva. Among the confirmed returns to the squad are Marcos Antônio, Ferreirinha, and Oscar, who have been sidelined since early June.
The match between São Paulo and Flamengo will be held at Maracanã Stadium at 4:30 p.m. this Saturday, part of the 13th round of the Brasileirão. For the Rio de Janeiro club, the match represents a chance to maintain its lead in the standings. Broadcasts will be available on free-to-air channels and streaming platforms.
Even without a guaranteed presence in the starting 11, Gabriel has been praised by the board for his commitment and commercial impact.

Signed with star status, Gabigol is still seeking regular starting positions at Cruzeiro. Unlike what he became accustomed to during his years as a star player at Flamengo, the striker is currently in a transitional phase. Even though he's not a regular in the starting eleven, he's been touted as an important player in Leonardo Jardim's project.
Pedro Junio, vice president of the Minas Gerais club, emphasized in an interview with the program Donos da Bola that the number 9 did not disappoint. According to the director, the striker has fulfilled everything agreed upon at the time of his signing, both on the field and in marketing. " He delivers everything we agreed on, both in the sporting and commercial and marketing aspects . Gabriel was a package deal we signed, and he delivers," he noted.
Since arriving at Toca da Raposa, Gabigol has started 11 matches, initially under Fernando Diniz and later under Leonardo Jardim. Following the 1-1 draw with São Paulo on April 13th, in the third round of the Brasileirão , the striker has lost his place in the starting lineup. Even so, management emphasizes that there is no dissatisfaction or bad blood behind the scenes.
" Cruzeiro's advantage is that everyone understands that Cruzeiro is the top priority. Regardless of who's playing or not," explained Pedro Junio, highlighting the positive internal atmosphere at the club and the players' maturity in accepting coaching decisions.
Despite recurring speculation that he's unhappy about not being a regular starter, Gabigol has publicly expressed his composure about this new phase. After the 2-0 victory over Vila Nova on May 1st in the Copa do Brasil , the striker addressed the issue directly.
" I'm very calm about it. I know the pressure there is , and there are a lot of people who say things without realizing it. I try to work hard, show my football skills on the field," he said. On that occasion, the striker also highlighted the welcome he received at the club and reinforced his desire to continue contributing.

Flamengo returns to the national stage this Saturday (12), after a stint at the Club World Cup, with full focus on the Brazilian Championship. The team led by Filipe Luís leads the table with 24 points, despite having played one game less, maintaining the best attack and the tightest defense in the competition so far.

Flamengo will be without midfielder Erick Pulgar, who suffered a fractured right foot, and Pedro, who was sidelined by Filipe Luís . This will also be the first match without Gerson, who recently left the club to Zenit in Russia.
