Manchester United are keeping an eye on Gabigol as a possible addition to their squad. Flamengo's idol is currently in reserve and faces a less favorable phase this season in Gávea. However, his overall record as a top scorer draws the attention of the English club. According to information from the TeamTalk website, Gabigol is on Manchester United's list of candidates for reinforcements in the next transfer window.
The Red Devils are in search of Ivan Toney, Brentford striker, but they face competition from Arsenal and Chelsea, who are closer to signing the player. Toney is a more expensive option for United, which is undergoing a restructuring process and seeks to avoid spending excessive. If they lose the fight for Toney, the Premier League club will consider other alternatives in the transfer market, and one of them is Gabigol, from Flamengo.
According to TeamTalk, Gabi is seen as an option to strengthen the attack from Manchester United. The team led by Erik Ten Hang is going through a challenging time with its current attackers. So far, Rashford, Rasmus Hojlund, Antony, Garnacho, Martial and Facundo Pellistri have only scored six goals this season. Gabigol, with an average of 30 goals per year since his arrival at Flamengo, appears as an ideal solution.
However, Gabigol is not the only alternative being considered by Manchester United. The list of possible reinforcements also includes Mehdi Taremi (Porto), Wissam Ben-Yedder (Monaco) and Marcos Leonardo (Santos), all of whom are in the sights of the English club. The website Transfermarket estimates that, among the four names, Gabigol is the most expensive option for United, with a value of 20 million euros. In comparison, Taremi is valued at 18 million, Ben Yedder at 12 million and Marcos Leonardo at around 17 million.
Manchester United's interest in Gabigol in the transfer market is also accentuated by the player's contractual situation . The number 10 has a relatively short contract with Flamengo, valid until December 2024. Flamengo's board seeks to extend Gabigol's contract, but encounters obstacles in the process. Initially, there was a verbal agreement between Gabi and Flamengo for a contract extension until 2028, with a salary increase. However, paper negotiations were stopped by the board. The news of a possible renewal of Gabigol's contract with Flamengo generated disapproval from political groups within the club.
The fact that Gabigol is going through his worst phase with the team contributes to the opposition to renewing his contract . Critics believe that this is not the right time to extend the contract for another five years, given the player's evident decline in performance in 2023. The board chose to postpone negotiations with the top scorer and plans to resume it when the internal environment is calmer.
The club has a different point of view from the coach

In an interview given after the defeat of Flamengoto Peñarol, 1-0, coach Tite was direct in responding to the boos received by the fans. The statement, marked by a frank tone, exposed the coach's pragmatic vision in relation to demanding fans and the pressure for results. “I respect the fans’ feelings. Of course I feel that (the boos), I'm human”, said Tite, recognizing the fans' frustration in the face of the setback.
Tite's speech reveals that he understands the role of fans as a fundamental part in the context of a club, especially in a team of great expression like Flamengo. By mentioning that the boos affect him as a human being, the coach demonstrates empathy, but does not fail to highlight that the only way to reverse this situation is with achievements on the field. “It can only be reversed in one way”, pointed out the coach.
THE MISTAKE THAT COSTED EXTREMELY DEARLYThe response reflects the experience of Titein dealing with pressure who follows the command of great teams in Brazilian football. With successful spells at clubs such as Corinthians, Grêmio and the Brazilian national team itself, the coach has a track record that puts him in a position to understand, perhaps like few others, the relationship between performance on the field and fans' expectations. For him, this connection is clear: “Do you know how to win fans? Do you know how I won over the fans of the other clubs I played for? Win an important title”, he declared.
The phrase highlights the centrality of titles in football, especially in mass clubs like Flamengo. In Brazil, the culture of results is intense, and Tite recognizes that fans have a limited tolerance for negative results. Winning titles, for him, is the key to gaining the support of the fans, and anything other than that results in discontent: “If not, bye.”
This last part of Tite's speech summarizes the characteristic impatience of demanding fans like Flamengo. The coach makes it clear that, without obtaining relevant trophies, the relationship with the fans deteriorates quickly. The pressure is constant and is part of the daily life of those who take on the leadership of top teams. Tite seems, however, to be aware of this scenario and how it needs to be faced.
The club has its greatest moment of inconstancy

Tite's statement came after a delicate moment for Flamengo. The defeat to Peñarol, at home, in a group stage match of the Copa Libertadores, raised alarm bells for fans and the coaching staff. Flamengo had high expectations for the season, especially after major reinforcements and the arrival of Tite, a coach with wide recognition on the national and international scene.
The pressure on Flamengo is nothing new. The club, which has one of the biggest fans in the world, is known for its high expectations for titles. The expensive squad, made up of renowned players, also increases this demand. Each stumble is widely covered by the media and amplifies the dissatisfaction of part of the fans, who demand immediate results.
CAN IT GO BAD AT THE MOMENT?The Copa Libertadores, in particular, has a important meaning for Flamengo and its fans. The continental tournament is seen as one of the club's main objectives each season. Any result other than victory can generate dissatisfaction and pressure on the technical committee, as occurred after the setback against Peñarol.
In this context, Tite's speech not only recognizes the fans' dissatisfaction, but also is realistic in relation to what is expected from a club like Flamengo. The demand for titles is part of the package when taking over a club of this size, and the coach seems to be aware of this when he points out that he will only be able to win the support of the fans with significant victories.
The coach has his bias organized on the club’s current situation
