O Flamengotried to sign midfielder Maycon, from Shakhtar Donetsk (UCR), who has been on loan to Corinthians in recent weeks.
However, the midfielder refused Mais Querido and decided to stay in the São Paulo team, with the promise of Corinthians that he would receive all his arrears and that he would hold the position.
Thus, after Léo Ortiz's press conference this Friday afternoon (8), Mais Querido's vice-president of football, Marcos Braz, spoke about the negotiations with Maycon and revealed about the proposal made to the player and Shakhtar Donetsk.
“On February 19, Flamengo made a proposal to Shakhtar and the proposal was rejected. It's difficult we make a proposal, for a club, that has not gone well with the businessman or the athlete. I'm no longer in the boy or amateur phase. If we made the proposal, things went well on the other end (with the player). What happened is that Shakhtar denied Flamengo's proposal", said Marcos Braz before adding:
"Shakhtar denied the proposal. For internal reasons, we understood that we shouldn't, or that we could make a counter-proposal. Time passed, we had the deadline on the 7th and Flamengo didn't move forward, due to the delay in relation to Ortiz, that's what happened. But I'm not going to say more about the subject", added Marcos Braz.
FLAMENGO IN SEARCH FOR A STEERING MAKERWith the departure of Thiago Maia to Internacional, the board is looking for a steering wheel. This way, Maycon was a request from Tite, as the commander had worked with the athlete previously. Therefore, with the player's refusal, ais Querido will have to look for another athlete who has only the states, as the transfer window closed this Thursday (7).

Among the main vehicles, “El País” and “Montevidéu Portal” highlighted that Luiz Araújo left the classic with a possible knee injury and could be absent for Rubro-Negro in the first game of the Libertadores quarter-finals against Peñarol, next Thursday (19).
Luiz Araújo played just 18 minutes in the classic. The attacker felt his knee after a challenge with a Vasco defender and even tried to continue on the field, but ended up being replaced by Arrascaeta. At half-time, Flamengo issued a statement informing that the player will be re-evaluated by the medical department at Ninho do Urubu. The squad will be presented again this Monday afternoon (16).
Uruguayan newspapers consider the possible absence of Luiz Araújo a big problem for Mengão. The athlete is a starter in Tite's team, with the most matches for Flamengo this season (50) and leader in assists (10).
The newspaper 'El País' classified the player as a key player for the team: “The injury to Luiz Araújo, one of the most important players in Mengão's squad, expands the list of injured players just a few days before the clash against Peñarol in the Copa Libertadores.”
The 'Montevideo Portal' followed the same line, highlighting the importance of the striker: “In addition to the result, another bad news for Peñarol's next rival in the Copa Libertadores it was the departure of Luiz Araújo. The fast right-winger, starter for Flamengo, felt pain in his right knee after a blow.”
Currently, Flamengo's medical department has five injured players: De La Cruz, Michael, Cebolinha, Viña and Pedro, with the trio formed by Cebolinha, Viña and Pedro only expected to return in 2025.
Expectations for De La Cruz in the game against PeñarolWhile awaiting Luiz Araújo's diagnosis, coach Tite revealed, after the draw against Vasco, that he hopes to count on De La Cruz for the duel against Peñarol . According to the coach, the Uruguayan's presence could improve the effectiveness of the team, which has shown good performance in recent matches.
“In training, when he (De la Cruz) was leaving, I asked 'is there enough for 20? minutes?'. He smiled, because he couldn't. The physical department definitely said they were not in a position to do so. Not even him feeling well. Especially because you have to talk to the athlete, because then there is the charge. Hopefully, and I hope that he can be there on Thursday to reproduce today's performance, with greater effectiveness”, said Tite in the post-game press conference between Flamengo x Vasco.

Remarkable name in the history of Flamengo, the striker Gabigolmust say goodbye to the club in December, when your contract comes to an end. Bahia, controlled by the City group, appears as a strong competitor to sign the center forward next season, seeing Gabriel Barbosa as a key player for 2025. The information was released by influencer Paparazzo Rubro-Negro.
In addition to Bahia, three other Brazilian clubs are closely monitoring Gabigol's situation: Palmeiras, Cruzeiro and Corinthians. Palmeiras tried to negotiate a pre-contract with the player in 2024, but Gabi gave no response, leading president Leila Pereira to withdraw the proposal. However, in January, the scenario could change, as the striker is a name that coach Abel Ferreira likes.
At Cruzeiro, Gabigol is seen as a fundamental piece in the team's reconstruction. Raposa seeks to regain its leading role in national football, and the signing of shirt number 99 from Flamengo would be a sign of strength in the market. At Corinthians, the idea is that Gabriel would form a prominent attacking duo alongside Dutchman Memphis Depay.
Episode wearing the Corinthians shirt cheers up the São Paulo clubDespite the situation delicate financial situation, Corinthians considers signing Gabigol in 2025 as an investment. Episodes such as the fact that Gabi wore the Corinthians shirt at a party at her home and the praise given to the club's fans during an interview on the Podpah podcast cheer up president Augusto Melo. Recently, Flamengo's football vice-president, Marcos Braz, showed pessimism regarding the top scorer's permanence: “Possible, but little likely”, he stated.
Gabigol has been at Flamengo since 2019 and, in that period, won two Championships Brazilians, two Libertadores, one Copa do Brasil, four Campeonatos Cariocas, one Recopa and two Supercups. However, he is currently the third option in the attack under Tite's command, behind even Carlinhos, a standout in Carioca for Nova Iguaçu.
