FLAMENGO WILL NOT PRIORITIZE COMPETITIONS, SAYS SPINDEL
During the press conference that followed Alex Sandro's presentation, Bruno Spindel, Flamengo's executive director of football, spoke about the club's stance in relation to the tight calendar and the competitions remaining in the season. When asked whether Flamengo would prioritize any specific tournament, Spindel was emphatic in stating that the team will not make distinctions between competitions.
“Flamengo does not prioritize competitions. The serious injuries to Viña and Cebolinha alerted us to the stress that the calendar is imposing on our athletes. Our goal is to win all the tournaments we are playing in, and that means fighting for each title, whether in the Brazilian Championship, the Copa do Brasil or the Libertadores”, declared Spindel.
The director also highlighted the impact that the calendar and call-ups for the Copa América had on the physical wear and tear on the squad. According to Spindel, Flamengo had between five and six players called up, which required greater squad rotation and caused an accumulation of games for some athletes.
"People forget that during the Copa América, many of our players were with their teams. This increases the wear and tear on those who remain and also harms the squad's planning. In addition to the replacements we have already made, we brought in new athletes, such as Alex Sandro, to ensure that Flamengo remains competitive on all fronts", he explained. .
Spindel mentioned that the recent signings aim to expand the options from coach Tite, allowing greater flexibility in the lineup and team rotation. "Our focus is to give Tite alternatives during the games, with a squad strong enough to compete in all competitions. We brought four reinforcements, and we believe that they will help us maintain the high level on the field", said the director. said the director. p>
The decision not to prioritize competitions, according to Spindel, is part of the club's institutional policy. “Flamengo’s premise is to compete on all fronts. The coach always puts the best team available on the field, taking into account the wear and tear of the players. The squad's commitment is total, even when functions on the field need to be adjusted due to the demands of the calendar,” he concluded.
