In his defense, Bruno Henrique stated that his only objective was to compete for the balland regain possession , and the chance of hitting his opponent, Soteldo, would be purely accidental.

Although the STJD closed the investigation, Bruno Henrique was the target of a Federal Police operation ( PF) and the Public Ministry of Rio de Janeiro this Tuesday, with 12 search and seizure warrants executed in various locations, including Ninho do Urubu and the player's residence, where his cell phone was seized.

Player stood out under the command of Filipe Luís and seeks salary enhancement, with the red-black board planning to start conversations after the end of the season
|
0In recent times, the Pulgar midfielder has established himself as one of the main players in Flamengo's midfield, especially after the arrival of coach Filipe Luís. With consistent performances, the Chilean player became one of the team's pillars and started to have a sequence of good games, which guaranteed him the starting position.
Currently, Pulgar has a contract with Mengão until December 2025, but from July 2025 he will be able to sign a pre-contract with another team. As a result, Flamengo's management is paying attention and has begun negotiations to renew the contract. However, the talks are at a standstill, and the club's current management plans to restart negotiations only after the end of the season.
The journalist Pablo Raphael, from Gazeta do Urubu, highlighted that the board's intention is to ensure the permanence of the midfielder, who has the support of Filipe Luís for the renewal. Despite River Plate's interest, to date, the Argentine club has not presented an official proposal.
SALARY APPRECIATION AND DESIRE TO STAY
Pulgar, 30 years old, arrived at Flamengoin 2022, but established himself in the team from last year, when Jorge Sampaoli took over as coach. Even in a challenging season for the club, the midfielder stood out, becoming an absolute starter for both Flamengo and the Chilean national team. So far, he has scored two goals and six assists for Rubro-Negro.
According to information from the GE website, Pulgar is one of the players in the midfield sector that receives the least at the club and expects a salary increase as part of the renewal negotiations. The red-black board recognizes the need for an increase, but the proposed values are still far from a consensus.
NEXT STEPS FOR THE CHILEAN STEERING WHEEL
Recently, Pulgar traveled with the squad for the game against Cruzeiro, and, after being left out of the victory against Atlético-MG, he returns to the starting lineup to gain rhythm and prepare for the return clash against Galo, which takes place next Sunday.
