The pressure on Tite behind the scenes at Flamengo has grown in recent days, especially after the elimination in the Libertadores. The coach's dismissal was announced just two days before the Copa do Brasil semi-final against Corinthians. Even with the 1-0 victory against Athletico-PR on Sunday, ending a run of four games without a win, the internal pressure did not ease.

Example of Sampaoli and low fine
In 2023, the board of Flamengo decided to keep Jorge Sampaoli for the Copa do Brasil final, despite his poor performance. The result was defeat to São Paulo and the end of the year without titles. This time, Rodolfo Landim and his peers chose to look for a "new fact" to prevent the scenario from repeating itself. The proximity of the club's presidential election, scheduled for December 9th, also influenced the decision, since Tite had very low popularity among the fans, as demonstrated by the insults at Maracanã on Sunday.
Another factor that What made the decision easier was the low termination fine. Flamengo will only need to pay 50% of the remaining value of Tite's contract, which had another three months to run, resulting in a amount of approximately R$ 3 million.
Confidence in Filipe Luís
The possibility of promoting Filipe Luís, U20 coach, had been considered behind the scenes and gained strength after the elimination in Libertadores. The relationship of trust between Filipe and Marcos Braz, established since the manager went to Spain in 2019 to sign the player, facilitated quick negotiations.
Although Filipe Luís was announced as interim coach, according to the 'GE', Flamengo's intention is to sign a contract with him until the end of 2025, even with the new board that will take over after the elections. Filipe would compete for the Carioca U20 title this week, but he has already changed his routine and will start working with the main team this Monday afternoon, at Ninho do Urubu.
Mengão hosts Leão at the beginning of November and fans can now purchase their tickets for the match valid for the 31st round of the championship.

One of the great merits of Filipe Luís's work at Flamengo's helm is its defensive solidity . Under his leadership, the team has not been defeated this season, and Rossi is largely responsible for this. The Argentine goalkeeper is having a consistent year , with decisive performances and an impressive streak of clean sheets.
According to a survey released by the club this Tuesday (7), Rossi reached seven consecutive games without conceding goals in 2025 and established himself as the athlete with the most matches in the season, totaling 51 appearances so far.
The term "clean sheet" originated in the Premier League and is used to define when a goalkeeper finishes a match without conceding a goal , and Rossi has already achieved this feat in 29 of his 51 matches this year for the "Mais Querido" (The Most Beloved). The only performance in which the number 1 conceded more goals was against Bayern Munich in the Club World Cup in June. On that occasion, Flamengo lost 4-2 in the round of 16 of the competition.
With Rossi on a high and a mainstay in the squad, Flamengo returns to the field on October 15th to face Botafogo at 7:30 pm (Brasília time) at Nilton Santos Stadium for the 28th round of the Brasileirão. The match will be broadcast on Premiere (pay-per-view), Record TV (open channel) and Cazé TV (YouTube).
