"IT'S A Slap IN THE FACE OF THE FLAMENGO BOARD OF BOARDS", SAYS JOURNALIST ABOUT FLUMINENSE IN THE LIBERTADORES FINAL

Fluminense reached the final of the Copa Libertadores da América. The victory over Internacional last Wednesday (04) was a turning point: 2 to 1. The triumph of the tricolor greatly encouraged some red-black fans who are also from Rio, but the truth is that frustration reigned over the entire nation. .
When the round of 16 of the competition was taking place, Flamengo was eliminated. Losing to Olimpia (PAR) 3-1 in the return game, leaving the championship hurt a lot, mainly because in the previous year (2022) it was Mais Querido who won the cup. Expectations were very high, but they were not met.
This is what sums up the entire year 2023 for Flamengo. Having won the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores last season, the team had chances in eight different competitions this campaign. Of the eight, Flamengo lost seven. These were: the Recopa Sul-americana, the Supercopa, the Taça Guanabara, the Campeonato Carioca, the Club World Cup, the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil. Rubro-Negro only has the Brasileirão left.
In this way, we understand the frustration of Mengão fans, who dreamed big, but saw one of the worst years in the team's history. "In relation to expectations and reality, it is the worst season in Flamengo's history. A lot was expected and Flamengo won nothing. So I think Flamengo needs to improve a lot and can take Fluminense as an example", said Venê Casagrande during the SBT Rio program this Thursday afternoon (05).
For these same reasons, the commentator believes that Fluminense's arrival in the Libertadores final needs to wake up Flamengo's leaders: "The way Fluminense is reaching the Libertadores da América final is a slap in the face from Flamengo's board of directors! I hope that now they have the humility to understand that the work they are doing is poor, it is ridiculous. Why so far it seems not so! "
He continued his complaint about the behavior of club members: "We see in the interviews with some players and even some managers, that it seems not to be the case. It seems that everything is fine at Flamengo and everything is not fine at Flamengo."
< Flamengo's only chance of redemption, as has already been said, is the Brasileirão. The team is in fifth place at the moment, accumulating 43 points. Their distance to second place is just two points (Bragantino - 45 points), but to first place it is 9 points (Botafogo - 52 points).

Brazilian Championship: Santos defines location for match against Flamengo
There was a possibility that the duel would be transferred to Mané Garrincha; The idea of the company that made the proposal was to take advantage of the red-black public

Santos has decided to host the match against Flamengo on July 16, for the 14th round of the Brazilian Championship, at Vila Belmiro. The São Paulo club even negotiated the sale of the home stadium to Brasília in order to raise funds, but the proposal was rejected.
IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE IN BRASILIA
There was a possibility that the match would be moved to Mané Garrincha. The idea of the company that made the proposal was to take advantage of the predominantly red-and-black crowd in Brasília to raise a large amount of money. The amounts offered to Santos were not revealed. The likely "reversal" of home advantage, however, was one of the reasons for the São Paulo team's refusal.
It is worth remembering that this same company has a debt of R$587,354.00 with Flamengo for not passing on the entire amount agreed upon for the Botafogo-PB x Flamengo match, for the Copa do Brasil, which was transferred to Maranhão. The club decided to take the company to court.
Santos wanted to play the match against Flamengo at Morumbis, São Paulo's stadium. However, they were unable to obtain permission from the police , as Palmeiras is playing at Allianz Parque on the same date and the security forces prohibit games of big teams in the city on the same day. Without Morumbis, Brasília became plan B, but it was discarded by the board, which decided to keep the home stadium at Vila Belmiro.
MENGÃO PREPARES FOR WHAT COMES AHEAD
The red-black squad arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday morning and will have four days off . The return is scheduled for Saturday (5), when Filipe Luís will lead the first activity focused on the return of the national calendar after the Club World Cup.
The first match will be against São Paulo, on July 12th, at Maracanã, for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. Santos x Flamengo will be Mengão's second game after returning from the USA . For the black and white team from the coast, however, it will be the first match after the break. This is because the game against Palmeiras, scheduled for the 12th, has been postponed due to the team's participation in the Club World Cup.

Flamengo will face São Paulo on the 12th, at Maracanã, in a match valid for the Brazilian Championship. Therefore, the São Paulo team will be one player short. This is because midfielder Matheus Alves is close to being sold to CSKA, and will travel to Russia in the early hours of Friday. The sale will only be announced by Tricolor after medical exams and the signing of a contract.
ALL VERY WELL
The final details of the transfer were resolved in the last few days, and CSKA then issued tickets for Matheus Alves to travel to Russia. São Paulo already did not have the midfielder, who has not even trained at CT da Barra Funda.
Matheus Alves, 20, has become a target for CSKA in recent months. The Russians even had a video call with the midfielder before formalizing the offer to São Paulo. Since last month, however, Tricolor has been discussing the sale with the European club.
VALUES
The amount will be close to 6 million euros (R$37.9 million) for 100% of the player's economic rights, 90% of which are tied to São Paulo. In recent months, Tricolor had warned the player's agents that it expected a minimum offer of 10 million euros (around R$63.2 million), but the Russian club presented an offer with a lower value.
Due to its financial and cash flow problems, São Paulo decided to proceed with the transfer even though it was below what was expected. Matheus Alves has not been training with his teammates at CT da Barra Funda. The boy was released by Tricolor and is awaiting the outcome of his sale at home, with his family.

The Club World Cup has come to an end for Flamengo, but the season is still going strong. In this sense, José Boto and the red-black management are keeping an eye on the transfer market , especially on a striker. Therefore, a possible target could emerge from Russia.
HERMANO STRIKER IN THE AREA?
The "Rubronews Tv" portal obtained the information and, according to them, confirmation from a Flamengo director that the club made an inquiry to the Argentine striker from Dynamo Moscow, Ezequiel Barco. The 26-year-old athlete has a contract with the Russian club until 2027.
BOTO WANTED FOR THE WORLD CUP
It is worth remembering that Barco's name has been circulating at Flamengo since before the Club World Cup , but the talks did not progress, as the values presented initially are far from an evolution from a survey to negotiation.
The manager also confirms that there is no agreement, as reported in some portals, in fact there is not even an initial conversation , but he also confirms that the athlete is considered “interesting” and does not rule out a formal proposal.
Esequiel Barco is valued at R$102 million by Spartak Moscow, a figure that Flamengo , as reported, does not want to pay at this time. Despite this, according to the Russian media, the striker is positive about a transfer to Flamengo.
