Former Grêmio director opens up about the situation
|
0Renato Portaluppi was at Flamengo in 2021 and tried to sign a Grêmio idol who was leaving the club at the time. The person who told the story was the former Grêmio leader, Nestor Hein, in a recent interview with the program Cadeira Cativa.
Hein stated that in 2021, when Renato was at Flamengo, the coach tried to sign midfielder Maicon, who had announced his departure from Grêmio. However, the commander had his request denied by Marcos Braz, director of the Rio club.
"But he is like that (about Renato not having a hierarchy). No, at Flamengo he is not like that. At Flamengo, when Maicon left Grêmio he asked (Marcos) Braz: 'I want Maicon here', and Braz said: 'no, here at Flamengo I'm the one who hires, I'm the one who nominates for positions at Flamengo, now here (at Grêmio), he does what he wants", highlighted Nestor Hein.
After leaving Grêmio, Maicon still played some games for CRB, but stayed at the club for only seven games and left the team due to the pain that had been bothering him since he was at Tricolor Gaúcho.

0The first women's volleyball competition is Mengão's! This Friday (27), Flamengo won the National Cup of Pro-Vôlei Clubs. Against the current Superliga champion, Bernardinho's team played 3 sets to 0 at Minas, with scores of 25-15, 25-18 and 25-17. The duel took place at Ginásio Wilson Mânica, in Ijuí, Rio Grande do Sul.
The tournament featured three clubs and serves as preparation for the 2024/25 Superliga. On Wednesday (25), Flamengo beat Maringá. On Thursday (26), Minas also beat the team from Paraná. Therefore, this Friday (27th) the big decision took place, which had a packed gym.
Despite being a competition to open the season, Flamengo's victory gives a boost to the season. After all, Minas is the team to beat in Brazilian women's volleyball. Thus, in the last five Superligas, the Belo Horizonte team won four titles and one runner-up. In the squad, there are athletes who have played for the Brazilian team, such as Thaísa, Olympic champion and bronze medalist in this year's edition, in Paris.
SuperligaThe dates of the Women's Super League have not yet been announced. However, there is an expectation that the competition will start in October. In total, 12 teams will play the tournament, in a round-robin system, with the eight best qualifying for the quarter-finals.
In the last edition, after all, Flamengo was eliminated by Praia Clube in the semi-final . Therefore, the goal for 2024/25 is to reach the decision and repeat the title won in 2000/01, when Rubro-Negro beat Vasco, in a historic decision at the Ginásio do Maracanãzinho.

The event will be held in Central Park, New York. FIFA did not detail how many cities and stadiums will host the 2025 edition. This will be the first time that the tournament will feature 32 teams.
The Super World Cup will be held between June 15 and July 13, 2025 The competition already has 30 qualified teams, with three Brazilians among them: Palmeiras, Flamengo and Fluminense. Brazil may have one more representative. This is because Atlético-MG and Botafogo are fighting for the last South American place in the competition — the Libertadores title gives them the place. Peñarol [if they win the Libertadores] and Olímpia [if River wins the Libertadores] are the other teams in the running.
The places are divided into: 12 for Europe, six for South America, four for Asia, Africa and North, Central America and the Caribbean, one for Oceania and one for the host country.
In addition to the remaining MLS spot, which has not yet defined its representative, the other available entry belongs to South America. It is destined for the champion of the edition of 2024 of the Libertadores. If River Plate wins the title, it will be transferred to the Conmebol ranking in FIFA and would already have an owner: Olímpia-PAR.

The coach should not remain at Mengão next season
|
0Coach Tite, currently in charge of Mais Querido, may not continue in charge of the team in 2025. CRF's recent performances have been the target of criticism, and the coach's permanence for next season is increasingly uncertain. According to journalist Venê Casagrande, the coach had already decided to leave the team at the end of the year, especially since his name is not the favorite of any of the club's main electoral slates.
This situation paves the way for others clubs seek to sign Tite. One of the interested parties would be Grêmio, which sees the coach as a priority for next year.
According to information from the Sou Grêmio portal, Tite is considered Imortal's main target for 2025. The club from Rio Grande do Sul, which currently has Renato Gaúcho in charge, should not renew with the coach. Tite's possible arrival is welcomed by the Grêmio board, especially due to his experience and prestige on the national scene.
Journalist João Batista Filho reinforces that one of Grêmio's most influential directors maintains a relationship next meeting with Tite, which could facilitate negotiations. However, the interest in Tite is for next year, and Grêmio will continue with Renato Gaúcho until the end of the season.
Despite speculation, both Grêmio and Mengão remain focused on their objectives for the remainder of 2024. The CRF, under the command of Tite, seeks to improve performance and remain competitive in the national competitions. Tricolor Gaucho is evaluating options for next season, with Tite being the main name for technical command in 2025.
