Flamengo's standout player at the Club World Cup , striker Wallace Yan has been attracting international attention. His good performance in the competition led Wolverhampton, from England, to contact the player's representatives to obtain information about his contract and termination fee.


According to the GE portal, the English club carried out an informal survey, but has not yet presented an official proposal to Flamengo , which is counting on the player for the continuation of the competition, where he has managed to shine and gain the trust of Filipe Luís.


€40 MILLION FINE


Rubro-Negro, in turn, is contractually protected. Wallace Yan has a release clause of 40 million euros — the equivalent of R$258 million at the current exchange rate. This gives the Rio de Janeiro club a comfortable margin to negotiate or reject approaches from the European market.

FLAMENGO'S TOP SCORER IN THE WORLD CUP


Wallace Yan is, so far, Flamengo's top scorer in the World Cup. The striker scored goals against Chelsea (ENG) and Los Angeles FC (USA) , totaling two goals and establishing himself as one of the highlights of the squad led by Filipe Luís.

NEXT CHALLENGE: BAYERN MUNICH

With Wallace Yan available, Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (29), for the round of 16 of the Club World Cup . The opponent will be Bayern Munich, at 5 pm (Brasília time), at Hard Rock Stadium, in Miami. The match will be broadcast by Globo, SporTV, CazéTV (YouTube) and DAZN.

Coach Carlo Ancelotti announced this Wednesday (1st) the call-up of the Brazilian National Team for the friendlies against South Korea and Japan, which will be played in October during the FIFA World Cup. The matches will take place in Seoul and Tokyo, beginning the team's preparation for the 2026 World Cup , scheduled for June next year.


Despite not including any current Flamengo players, the list of 26 names released by Ancelotti includes four athletes who have played for the Rio de Janeiro club: Vini Jr (Real Madrid), Wesley (Roma), Fabrício Bruno (Cruzeiro) and Hugo Souza (Corinthians) . All of them stand out in their teams and earned the opportunity to join the green and yellow group.


RETURNS OF RODRYGO AND VINICIUS JR


Among the main highlights of the list are the returns of Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr., both from Real Madrid, who are once again important players in the national team's attack. Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson, however, was sidelined due to an injury suffered in the English club's last game.

According to Ancelotti, the call-up prioritized players who play in European football , considering the logistics of traveling to Asia and the time difference. Still, two players who play in the Brazilian Championship were called up: Hugo Souza of Corinthians and Fabrício Bruno of Cruzeiro.


COMPLETE LIST

Goalkeepers: Bento (Al Nassr), Ederson (Fenerbahçe), Hugo Souza ( Corinthians )

Defenders: Caio Henrique (Monaco), Carlos Augusto (Inter Milan), Douglas Santos (Zenit), Eder Militão (Real Madrid), Fabricio Bruno (Cruzeiro), Gabriel Magalhães (Arsenal), Lucas Beraldo (PSG), Vanderson (Monaco), Wesley (Roma)

Midfielders: André (Wolverhampton), Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle), Casemiro (Manchester United), João Gomes (Wolverhampton), Joelinton (Newcastle), Lucas Paquetá (West Ham)

Forwards: Estevão (Chelsea), Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal), Igor Jesus (Nottingham Forest), Luiz Henrique (Zenit), Matheus Cunha (Manchester United), Richarlison (Tottenham), Rodrygo (Real Madrid), Vinicius Jr. (Real Madrid)

Facing Flamengo away from home has been a tough challenge for Cruzeiro in the Brasileirão . The last time the Minas Gerais team beat Flamengo in Rio de Janeiro in the national competition was in November 2010, almost 15 years ago.


Since then, the teams have faced each other 11 times at Maracanã (or in matches hosted by Flamengo ) in the tournament, and the record is largely favorable to the Mais Querido: eight wins and three draws. During this period, historic defeats stand out, such as the 5-1 victory in 2011 , as well as important triumphs for the red-and-blacks' campaigns. The most recent was a 2-1 victory in June 2024.
