This Tuesday (20), midfielder Giorgian de Arrascaeta's injury to his thigh adductor muscle was confirmed, which will leave him off the field for at least two weeks. The situation generated criticism from journalist Julio Miguel Neto, who questioned the Uruguayan player's physical condition. In response, Arrascaeta used his Instagram account to express his dissatisfaction with the comments.


Visibly uncomfortable, the number 14 of Flamengoleft a direct comment on the journalist's publication. "I'm going to call you to adjust the numbers during the renewal, it's already wrong since you're talking about the salary. If you play 75 games a year, it would be a Guinness Record. I'm far from being an ace, I see that you're the ace," wrote Arrascaeta , demonstrating his discontent.




REFLECTION ON THE INJURY

In addition to responding to criticism, Arrascaeta also used his social networks to share a reflection with your followers. The attacking midfielder reaffirmed his commitment to working hard to return as quickly as possible and highlighted the emotional impact caused by injuries.


"Injuries are unpredictable, unexpected, and the moment they happen they affect our feelings. When you do your job with love and determination, the only thing you can do when these things happen is accept them. Work to get back as soon as possible," wrote the Uruguayan.

Arrascaeta has already made his mark on Flamengo 's history and has a legion of fans. However, a Fluminense striker is also an admirer of the Gávea's number 10. Agustín Canobbio , a fellow countryman and Uruguayan teammate of the Mengão star, revealed that he has watched the midfielder's games since he was a child .


I would go with my father to watch Arrascaeta's games"


In recent years, the fan had the opportunity to play alongside his idol in the Uruguayan National Team . However, Canobbio was not called up in the latest lists due to a disagreement with coach Marcelo "El Loco" Bielsa . Arrascaeta continues to be called up regularly and, in the last FIFA Date, he was injured during the match against Argentina.


"When I was a child, I would go with my father to watch Arrascaeta's games at Defensor (URU)," Canobbio said in an interview with "TNT". The Flamengo player was born in 1994, while the Fluminense athlete was born in 1998, a difference of four years.

FLA-FLU CHOKING


Canobbio arrived at Fluminense at the beginning of this year, after being relegated by Athletico-PR in 2024. So far, he has played three classics wearing the rival's shirt against Flamengo , but has not yet won: there was one red-black triumph and two draws. In addition, Mais Querido won the Rio de Janeiro title precisely in the final against Tricolor . For this reason, the Uruguayan striker admitted that Mengão is "choking".

The Fla-Flu is very good. It didn't work out for us, but the experience was very good. There is a lot to improve and, during the year, it will work out. It's something that I have in my head: to win a Fla-Flu. I want to win, there is a lot of work to do”, declared Canobbio.

NEXT FLA-FLU

With that, Flamengo and Fluminense will only face each other again in the Brasileirão , after the Club World Cup , in July. At this moment, the red-black focus is on the Copa Libertadores da América . On Thursday (03), Mengão faces Deportivo Táchira (VEN), away from home, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time).

Flamengo 's captain and key player on the field, Gerson is enjoying a great moment with the fans, while rumors suggest that possible internal dissatisfaction may arise due to salary issues and contract renewal , especially after controversial statements from his father and agent.


Given this scenario and speculation about millionaire offers for the Joker, journalist Paparazzo Rubro-Negro stated that Gerson's days at Mais Querido may be numbered .


I think Gerson will end up leaving Flamengo"


On his YouTube channel, "Papa" said that the feeling is that the player will leave the club after the World Cup , highlighting a farewell tone in some of the midfielder's speeches and suggesting that there is already a significant proposal on the table.

"I think Gerson will end up leaving Flamengo , you know, after the World Cup. He's getting his act together, already making it clear that he wants to come back and end his career later. The impression I have is that he already has an offer in hand, something big for Gerson, okay?", said Paparazzo.


JOURNALIST SHOWS CONCERN ABOUT THE SITUATION

Considered one of the best players in Brazilian football, finding a replacement for Gerson would be a huge challenge for Flamengo 's board. Paparazzo Rubro-Negro expressed concern about the possible departure of the Joker and questioned how the club would fill this gap. However, he believes that the current management is preparing for this eventuality , highlighting the search for a reserve number 10 and the well-underway signing of Jorginho .

"And we're going to make the most of every moment he has at Flamengo now, right? The only concern is whether the others who are coming will be able to handle it, but I think so. It looks like Flamengo is getting it right to sign a number 10 , right? In addition to Jorginho, who we've already brought in, thank God, everything is coming together," he declared.

MARCÃO SAYS RENEWAL IS MOVING FORWARD

In a recent interview, after Flamengo's debut in the Brasileirão – which Gerson missed due to fatigue –, his father and agent, Marcão, guaranteed that the contract renewal is underway and without complications.

"It's being resolved, as I said in previous interviews. Flamengo's board is resolving the issue , everything is fine. There are no difficulties at all," said Marcão.
