FLAMENGO CAST IS IN THE TOP 3 OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE IN BRAZIL! CHECK OUT

Flamengo is focused on the decision against Peñarol, in the Libertadores. However, Mais Querido's next opponent in the Brasileirão, Athletico-PR fired its coach Martín Varini. In total, the coach played 19 games in charge of the team from Paraná, who came to the decision to dismiss him due to negative results in the competition.

Like Mais Querido, Athletico-PR remains alive in the Copa Sul -American, but has stumbled in the Brasileirão. Thus, this may have been the last straw for Martín Varini's dismissal, as the team had gone seven games without a win.

Athletico-PR faces Racing this Thursday (26) in the Sulamericana, the same day as Mais Querido in the Libertadores. In this way, the Paraná team rushed to sign a new coach to be at the edge of the field for the match.

In this way, Athletico-PR will have a new coach for the match against Flamengo. The team's new commander is Lucho Gonzalez, a former player at the club.

Flamengo remains focused on the Libertadores and travels to the Uruguay this Tuesday (24). The Mais Querido squad completes preparation for the match against Peñarol this Wednesday (25). The confrontation will be Thursday (26), at 7pm, in Montevideo.

Flamengo has kept Jorge Jesus as a frequent target since the historic 2019 season. However, bringing him back, currently at Al-Hilal, would not be an easy task, especially due to the coach's high salary, which is among the highest paid in the world.

According to information from journalist Jorge Nicola, the termination fine to remove "Mister" from the Arab club is 40 million reais. Furthermore, it would be necessary to negotiate a new salary, as Jesus currently earns around 70 million reais per year, tax-free, which is equivalent to more than 6 million reais per month. The Portuguese's name resurfaced at Flamengo by candidates for election at the club.

If Flamengo or any other Brazilian club managed to sign him, Jesus would become the highest paid football coach on the continent, surpassing Abel Ferreira, coach from Palmeiras, who receives around 3 million reais per month.

With Tite's situation uncertain to lead Flamengo in 2025, Jorge Jesus' name begins to be mentioned behind the scenes. However, the Brazilian team could also enter the dispute for the coach. Despite the recent arrival of Dorival Júnior at the helm of the national team, there is suspicion within the CBF about the continuity of his work.

Therefore, Jorge Jesus becomes a coveted target for both Flamengo and the Brazilian team, both of whom are aware that they will have to make a considerable investment if they want to rely on the technician.

After taking charge of Flamengo, Tite, former coach of the Brazilian national team, made it clear that he is quickly adapting to the club's culture. In recent statements, he highlighted Rubro-Negro's striking characteristic: the incessant search for all possible titles. According to the coach, this spirit of intense competition is something that he not only admires, but is also incorporating into his own work philosophy.

Tite, known for his meticulous and results-focused work, revealed that the Transition to Flamengo involves constant learning, especially in relation to the club's winning mentality. "Flamengo has this culture of fighting for every title. There is no focus on just one competition, the goal is to win everything within reach", he explained.

This characteristic is notable in Flamengoin recent years, which has won several important competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa Libertadores. Tite, accustomed to pressure and the need for results, states that this mentality is something he is adopting in his day-to-day life at the club. “I see this culture, and this is what we are doing. Flamengo has this requirement, and I am a coach who likes this type of challenge.”

Although Tite has an established career, with successful spells at clubs such as Corinthians and the Brazilian national team, Flamengo represents a new experience for the coach. He is now at the helm of a team that has traditionally had fans calling for victories in every competition they compete in, something he sees as a positive challenge.

"You have to learn every day Even with the experience I have, here I realize that there are very high expectations, but at the same time that's what makes you grow", commented the coach. For him, working at a club that maintains such a high level of demand motivates him to always seek the best.
