Despite the suspension imposed on striker Bruno Henrique , Flamengo will not make any moves in the market to find an immediate replacement. The board was already considering the possibility of losing the player and believes there are enough options within the squad to maintain the team's performance.
According to a report by Gazeta do Urubu , coach Filipe Luís believes Pedro has reached his best physical form and can assume a greater offensive role. Furthermore, Gonzalo Plata and Wallace Yan are seen as viable alternatives to fill the position , while Juninho is expected to be reinstated in the squad for the next rounds of the Brasileirão.
The Superior Court of Sports Justice sentenced Bruno Henrique this Thursday (29) to a 12-game suspension and a fine of R$60,000. The decision is valid for national competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil, but does not, for now, affect the Libertadores.
However, the case is expected to be referred to FIFA. If the governing body agrees to extend the ban, the striker will also be barred from international matches , increasing the impact of the punishment for Mengão.
The process began after suspicions of manipulation related to a yellow card received by Bruno Henrique in the match against Santos, held at the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, on November 1, 2023.
According to the investigation, the player allegedly provided advance notice of the warning, which benefited his brother, Wander, who then passed the information on to third parties involved in sports betting. The investigation led to a disciplinary decision by the Superior Court of Justice (STJD), which may now have repercussions in international courts.
After four days of rest, the red-black squad returns to training at Ninho do Urubu under the command of Filipe Luís and begins preparations for the away match.
