Friday! Eve of classic and debut in 2025. a> a Half camper Glaucia woke up, left home and made her normal routine.
There, he entered the auditorium still not knowing what was coming. While chatting about the call and other matters, Zico appeared. Immediately, the reaction was by surprise. It was the beginning of a new era for the striker.
Quintino's chicken had a gift . In fact, an endorsement. Holding a box, our biggest idol walked toward the athlete and the scene went shiver. Inside, the shirt ten. From today, February 14, Glaucia gives up his shirt 9, who accompanied his entire career until then, to honor the sacred number . A significant step for those who deserve daily, work tirelessly for personal and professional evolution and are proud to wear the cloak.
-< I> I confess that I did not expect. When I saw Zico in front of me, I wage. When he handed me my shirt, I didn't know what to say. It's unlike anything. He wished me luck and success, so it was sensational. I never wore the ten shirt. And there was no way to be better the first time… it's ten from Flamengo. From Zico. Of an entire nation. I am very happy and I feel prepared - he said.
Describe feelings When it comes to something amazing, it's hard. The star took advantage of all the emotion of the moment to praise the trip from women's football to CFZ.
-< i> Pass a movie, right? We are kind of not believing. The respect he has for women's football makes me even emotional. It's not about Glaucia this here, it's about the sport. Flamengo's biggest idol is opening the doors of his CT, with every structure, for us. It's a huge gain. I received his shirt ten, but for me, goes further. We are all happy with this club step. And receiving this affection is fantastic - declared.
always smiling , Zico ended the meeting projecting many goals and wishing victories and titles for the girl from Gávea in this new chapter of history. With the king's approval and the ten shirt on his back, Glaucia is ready, along with the team, to face Vasco on Saturday (15), at 10am, for the debut of the Rio Cup.

The Brazilian National Team's first training session for the final round of the World Cup Qualifiers took place this Saturday (6), in Teresópolis, in cold temperatures of 16°C, rain and even fog. Coach Carlo Ancelotti made important changes, including the presence of Lucas Paquetá and Fabrício Bruno , both revealed by Flamengo, in the starting lineup.
The activity took place on a reduced field and without goalkeepers, with the focus already on the match against Bolivia, at the altitude of El Alto, a city located 4,100 meters above sea level . This will be the Italian coach's first time leading a team in such conditions.
During the training session, Ancelotti fielded the team with: Wesley, Gabriel Magalhães, Fabrício Bruno, and Caio Henrique; Bruno Guimarães, Jean Lucas, Andrey Santos, and Lucas Paquetá; Raphinha and Richarlison . During training, the coach also made changes, such as the introduction of Vitinho in Wesley's place.
With the national team already qualified for the World Cup, the Italian coach will be observing the final two rounds. Even so, Ancelotti assured that the group is focused on beating the Bolivians , maintaining the goal of preparing the players for the World Cup.
A definite absence for Brazil is Casemiro. Suspended for his third yellow card, received in the 3-0 victory over Chile, the midfielder was released from training camp and will not participate in training at Granja Comary.
Playing in the second half against Chile, Paquetá scored in less than a minute , helped control the match, and directly contributed to the third goal. The performance made a great impression on Ancelotti, who praised the midfielder's versatility.
"Obviously, Paquetá, because of his quality, needs to be here. He can play in different ways. Yesterday he played as a wide midfielder , but he wouldn't have a problem playing as a second midfielder or even as a first, because he has great ball handling skills," the coach highlighted.
The striker was targeted by Italian and English clubs during the transfer window, and the Cottagers made an important decision about the former Flamengo player.

After a busy transfer window in which they managed to retain one of their top players, Fulham is preparing a reward for Rodrigo Muniz, a striker who emerged from Flamengo. The player is expected to receive a contract extension with a significant salary increase .
The decision by the board and coach Marco Silva is strategic: to protect the 24-year-old athlete after rejecting offers, including one from Atalanta , who will compete in the Champions League. According to the British website Give Me Sport (GMS), the Italian club showed strong interest, but the offer did not reach the asking price of £43 million (R$312.5 million), stipulated by the Londoners.
Fulham is looking to expedite negotiations, as Muniz is in the final 12 months of his contract. Currently, the number 9 earns around £7,500 (R$54,500) per week , one of the lowest salaries in the first team. The board recognizes that the compensation no longer reflects the Brazilian's prominence.
The concern is to prevent the player from signing a pre-contract in January and leaving for free at the end of the season. To convince him to stay, the club guaranteed him a prominent role in Marco Silva's plans, which has been using him in the starting lineup.
Last season, the former Flamengo player scored 11 goals and has already started the current campaign decisively, scoring the equalizer against Brighton in the opening round of the Premier League. Since then, he has started against Manchester United and Chelsea , cementing his place in the team.
With the transfer window closed, Fulham turns its attention to internal negotiations. Talks with Muniz's representatives are expected to begin in the coming weeks , with the board willing to offer a significant raise as a demonstration of confidence in the "Nest Boy"'s future.
The Chilean club where the midfielder plays is looking for a new coach and the champion for Mengão is in the running to get the job.

A Rio de Janeiro champion with Flamengo in 2017, coach Zé Ricardo may be close to returning to the South American stage. He's participating in a selection process to take over Colo-Colo in Chile, a team whose star midfielder Arturo Vidal, who won the Copa do Brasil and the Libertadores with Flamengo in 2022, is among the highlights.
Zé Ricardo, ex-Flamengo, about Colo-Colo, by Arturo Vidal: "I participated in the first stage"
Without a club since leaving Criciúma, Zé Ricardo has already advanced to the first stage of the selection process: "I participated in the first stage, which was the presentation of my resume. Then there was a cut, and only five remained. I was invited to give a presentation , which I did, and now we await the next stage, which is the proposal. I'm happy, because it's not easy: in Chile, there's no tradition of Brazilian coaches," he told the Chilean newspaper As.
If the deal goes through, the Brazilian will replace Jorge Almirón, formerly of Boca Juniors, who was dismissed in August: "Just being at this stage is a great honor. I have my fingers crossed. I know it's a difficult choice, because Colo-Colo is a great and traditional club," added Zé Ricardo.
Zé Ricardo experienced his initial peak at Flamengo , where he won the 2017 Carioca Championship and led the team to third place in the 2016 Brasileirão , returning the club to the Copa Libertadores after three years. However, the early exit in the group stage of the continental tournament brought intense pressure, culminating in his departure.
Since then, the coach has had stints at Vasco, Botafogo, Internacional, Cruzeiro, and other mid-tier clubs, without recapturing his early brilliance . Now, Colo-Colo presents a chance to regain his place at a continental giant. Vidal's Chilean club is the only one in the country to win the Copa Libertadores, in 1991.
