The soap opera involving the possible transfer of Marcos Antônio to Flamengo continues, and the plot is far from having a happy ending. According to information from journalist Julio Miguel Neto, negotiations between the Rio club and Lazio, from Italy, are at a critical moment. The midfielder, who is currently enjoying his vacation in Brazil, is beginning to show signs of dissatisfaction with the delay in closing the agreement.

Marcos Antônio, who has had a verbal agreement with Flamengo for more than two weeks, has already lined up all the personal details of your transfer. Salary and contract period have been defined, but the impasse is in the business model with Lazio. This delay is making the player uneasy, to the point where he is considering a return to Italy to join Lazio's pre-season and maintain his fitness and game rhythm.


FLAMENGO OPENS THE GAME

The situation is a cold shower for fans of Flamengo, who were already starting to dream about the arrival of the talented midfielder. Expectations were high, and many believed that Marcos Antônio's presence could raise the level of Mengão's midfield. However, with each passing day, the possibility of seeing him wearing the red and black shirt seems more distant.


For Lazio, the transfer of Marcos Antônio is also not simple. The Italian club seeks fair financial compensation, and Flamengo's proposal needs to meet its expectations. With the European market in full swing, Lazio has other alternatives and may be waiting for a more advantageous proposal.

Flamengo is focused on the decision against Peñarol, in the Libertadores. However, Mais Querido's next opponent in the Brasileirão, Athletico-PR fired its coach Martín Varini. In total, the coach played 19 games in charge of the team from Paraná, who came to the decision to dismiss him due to negative results in the competition.

O Athletico -PR faces Racing this Thursday (26) in the Sulamericana, the same day as Mais Querido in the Libertadores. In this way, the Paraná team rushed to sign a new coach to be on the edge of the field for the match.

In this way, Athletico-PR will have a new coach for the match against Flamengo. The team's new commander is Lucho Gonzalez, a former player at the club.

WHAT ABOUT FLAMENGO?

Flamengo remains focused on the Libertadores and travels to Uruguay this Tuesday (24 ). The Mais Querido squad completes preparation for the match against Peñarol this Wednesday (25). The clash will be Thursday (26), at 7pm, in Montevideo.

Flamengo has kept Jorge Jesus as a frequent target since the historic 2019 season. However, bringing him back, currently at Al-Hilal, would not be an easy task, especially due to the coach's high salary, which is among the highest paid in the world.

According to information from journalist Jorge Nicola, the termination fine to remove "Mister" from the Arab club is 40 million reais. Furthermore, it would be necessary to negotiate a new salary, as Jesus currently earns around 70 million reais per year, tax-free, which is equivalent to more than 6 million reais per month. The Portuguese's name resurfaced at Flamengo by candidates for election at the club.

If Flamengo or any other Brazilian club managed to sign him, Jesus would become the highest paid football coach on the continent, surpassing Abel Ferreira, coach from Palmeiras, who receives around 3 million reais per month.

Possible competition from the Brazilian team for Jorge Jesus

With Tite's situation uncertain to lead Flamengo in 2025, Jorge Jesus' name begins to be mentioned behind the scenes. However, the Brazilian team could also enter the dispute for the coach. Despite the recent arrival of Dorival Júnior at the helm of the national team, there is suspicion within the CBF about the continuity of his work.

Therefore, Jorge Jesus becomes a coveted target for both Flamengo and the Brazilian team, both of whom are aware that they will have to make a considerable investment if they want to rely on the technician.

Since the beginning of the year, competing in all possible competitions, Flamengo has faced a series of problems in the final stretch of the season due to wear and tear. Injuries and the need to save players have caused headaches for Tite, a situation that, according to André Rizek, should not happen.

For the journalist, Flamengo has a squad deep enough to rotate the team. He believes that Tite could have rotated more throughout the season to, at this point, have more players in ideal physical condition. Rizek cited the game against Grêmio as an example, where Mengão, even with a completely modified team, played good football despite the defeat.


“Flamengo has reached a point in the season where the team is so hurt , so tired... It's clear. You see Flamengo play, the team is dead. I would have done the same (save against Grêmio). Yesterday's game (Sunday, 22nd) is a sign that Flamengo could have rotated the squad a little more during the season. Flamengo's C team had a good performance against Grêmio", said the commentator.


Rizek states that Flamengo did not fight for the Brasileirão title

Even two-time champion in 2019 and 2020, André Rizek criticized Flamengo for not fighting adequately for the Brasileirão in recent years. He argues that the team has a qualified and abundant squad to compete in both cups and the points championship, but has chosen to focus more on knockout competitions.


“Flamengo, with the squad that There is, it's a team to fight for the Brasileirão title every year and for four years, in this final stretch of the championship, it has been distant. In all these years, Flamengo has dealt with such a great sense of urgency in the cups that the Brazilian Championship is like this... it didn't work”, he assessed.

This season, Flamengo even led the Brasileirão for a few rounds, but stumbles, greatly influenced by the preservation and wear and tear of the players, ended up damaging Rubro-Negro's chances of remaining at the top of the table.
