Last Tuesday (16),  Marcos Brazhas decided not to continue as Flamengo's vice-presidency of football in 2025, even if the situation wins the election at the end of the year. Rodolfo Landim's name for his succession is that of his current vice general, Rodrigo Dunshee de Abranches. In this sense, the red-black presidential candidate does not intend to convince Braz to continue at the club.

In response to journalist Mauro César Pereira, Dsunhee replied:


"We respect the position Marcos. Our football is very well organized, we won countless titles and important victories. When we didn't win, we competed for many other titles until the end and this is the envy of all the clubs in Brazil. Flamengo's Regatas is ready and mature to continue without Marcos' collaboration. We can and must always improve, but it is necessary to recognize the advances and achievements of the Landim management. even for selection recently, which only reinforces the professionalism and competence of our employees. Marcos is a great benefactor, a great red and black man and deserves respect", said the manager, who concluded...


"A We respect Marcos' position and if he announced that will leave in 2025. Let's continue without him, with the professionals we value. I'm not considering convincing him otherwise."

Also asked about a successor, Flamengo's current vice general commented:


"I don't have any names. Not even my general vice president has been chosen. The football department is already 99.9% professional, only Marcos (Braz) is not professional. If they come up with 20 names, I'll say I'm not thinking about that right now. I just found out from Marcos that he won't follow and I'm not going to deal with it at the moment."

Several Uruguayan newspapers covered the tie between Flamengo and Vasco this Sunday (15). 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 Peñarol

While 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.

Flamengo will no longer make signings in 2024, this is what Marcos Braz guarantees. After qualifying for the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil, this Thursday (12), the vice-president of red-black football gave an interview in the mixed zone of Maracanã and confirmed that the club considered hiring a new striker after Pedro's injury. But the board's final decision is to trust the attackers who are in the squad.

“We believe in the end. There were four hired at the beginning of the year, four now. We raised the hypothesis of bringing in a striker, but we understood, talking to everyone, that it was bringing someone to actually solve it”, began Braz after Flamengo 1 x 0 Bahia.


The manager recalled that Gabigol and Bruno Henrique has already been very decisive with the Sacred Mantle and has all the capacity to take over the top scorer spot. Camisa 27, in fact, was the author of the assist for the winning goal this Thursday.


“Whoever we have here has solved our problem many times, like Gabigol, Bruno 9, as he did today. Flamengo has already closed the window. Let's go with what we have until the end, recovering players. Gabigol returned today.”.

Some attackers were offered after Pedro suffered a serious injury while serving the national team. The name that gained the most traction within Flamengo was that of Frenchman Anthony Martial, formerly of Manchester United, but the deal did not move forward. Now, Marcos Braz confirms that Mengão is no longer on the market.


Flamengo signed this season: De La Cruz, Viña, Léo Ortiz, Carlinhos, Michael, Alex Sandro, Carlos Alcaraz and Gonzalo Plata. Reinforcements that together cost R$298.2 million to the club's coffers.

“It happens in football. Gabriel solved our problems several times and resolved them well. I'm not casting, but there's Bruno Henrique himself, Carlinhos. We are comfortable (with these attackers) for the competitions”, added Braz.

Marcos Braz admits Gabigol's departure from Flamengo

Gabigol was the main theme of the football vice interview. Asked once again about a possible contract renewal, Braz finally acknowledged that the trend is for Camisa 99 to leave at the end of the season.

“There may be a chance of contract renewal. It’s not impossible, but, unfortunately, it’s unlikely today”, concluded Marcos Braz.
