Luiz Araújo took the lead in Flamengo. After a troubled start and a lot of distrust, the attacker seems to have adapted and was decisive for the team in the knockout stage. He is the player with the most chances created in the squad this season. Now, without Everton Cebolinha, he has consolidated himself and become a key player in Tite's group.
The number 7 accumulates important numbers. He is the player with the most assists, with nine passes to goal, and he is the one who makes the most crosses, dribbles and tackles. Luiz Araújo is the second player with the most goal contributions. There are 15 so far. He is second only to Pedro, the season's top scorer.
In 2024, he helped decide six matches, preventing Fla from losing. He scored goals against São Paulo (2-1) and Grêmio (2-0 with two of his own), assisted against against Athletico (1 to 1) and Cruzeiro (2 to 1), as well as against Palmeiras (2 to 0) and Bolívar (2 to 0).
With Everton Cebolinha out of the season, Luiz tries consolidate itself once and for all in the hearts of Tite and the fans. After the last matches, he was widely celebrated in the stadium and also on social media. The beginning was not easy, with some failures and several criticisms.
Luiz Araújo could gain a shadow in the cast. With the serious injury to number 11, Flamengo is in the market and could agree on Michael's return. The striker is going through a good phase, also fueled by the wait for his second daughter. The player's wife, Ingrid, is pregnant with Celina. They already have a daughter named Valentina.
The trusting work with the coaching staff has also been helping. Tite has been concerned with reestablishing the players' self-esteem, something he did with Cebolinha himself before his injury.
"Luiz is in a great phase. It's merit of everything he's been building here at Flamengo. A player who doesn't stop creating at any time. Always trying to define the plays in the best way. /p>

Doctor Luiz Antônio Vieira, responsible for Pedro's surgery, commented that the attacker's recovery has been very positive. The surgeon was responsible for reconstructing the anterior cruciate ligament in Pedro's knees — on the right in 2018 and on the left this year. Vieira believes that the player's return will be better than his first injury, which occurred six years ago.
In an interview with the 'GE' portal, the doctor, who also operated on Bruno Henrique, detailed the surgical procedure, highlighting Pedro's physical and psychological qualities and reassured Flamengo fans about the possibility of the striker being present at the Club World Cup, in June next year.
“He was lucky not to have a meniscus injury , so joint rehabilitation is faster. We're still in September, I mean, he'll be there for about eight months, because that's around the time he turns around, between the eighth and ninth month. So I believe he has a chance. He is very dedicated, super focused on rehabilitation, does everything you tell him to, has strong legs, good muscles... I think he has a chance. He will be around the time he would more or less return”, said the doctor.
Pedro’s mind is calm in the face of the serious injuryLuiz Antônio Vieira commented on the way Pedro is coping mentally with the situation. After suffering the same injury in 2018 to one knee, the attacker now has the anterior cruciate ligament in his other knee torn. The doctor highlighted that Flamengo's Shirt 9 is very calm and sees this as a learning experience for his life.
“He has one good thing: he is quite religious. So he believes that it is part of his life learning, that he had to go through this. He accepted, in a way he resigned himself a little. He said: ‘Doctor, I’ve been through this, I’m going to have to go through it again, it was supposed to be like this, it’s part of my life, let’s face it’. He is super calm about it”, explained Vieira.
In addition, Vieira mentioned the time that Pedro will be able to spend with his twin daughters, who were born just over a month ago.
“He’s at a stage where he just had a baby, right? He has one-month-old twins, so I told him: “Everything in life has a good and a bad side. You will now be able to live with your one-month-old daughters because playing football two or three times a week would be impossible, right”? So let's put it this way, there will be this good part, in inverted commas, of his drama”, concluded the surgeon.
