The Mais Querido player has already been summoned to testify his version, after being accused of attacking a man and threatening him

0The Nation was surprised at the beginning of the week with news about Wesley's extra-field action. Businessman Kaio Mana claims to have been attacked and threatened by Flamengo's defender in a kiosk in RJ. Before taking any internal measures, the club awaits the progress of the investigations. This is not usually Flamengo's attitude in off-field situations. When a player gets involved in situations like this, the red and black board chooses to respond with warnings and punishments for the athlete. However, according to GE, the club decided to proceed this way at the moment.
Flamengo awaits the development of the investigations, as the case is still recent. As the GE found, the delegate in charge of the case opened a request to investigate the security cameras at the location. Wesley has also been subpoenaed to testify.
A financial punishment, that is, deducting directly from the player's salary, was not ruled out. At Flamengo, Marcos Braz is leading the episode and has already spoken with Wesley. However, the full-back prefers not to disclose his version publicly yet. Investigations must be completed within one month.
Kaio Mana opened a police report after what happened with Wesley, on Sunday (10). According to the businessman's defense, the player allegedly punched him in the face during an argument at a kiosk in Barra da Tijuca, West Zone of Rio. The whole situation happened after Wesley accused Kaio of having taken a photo of him without authorization. Visibly attacked, the businessman filed a criminal complaint with the IML to increase the case against the right-back.
Going through difficult times outside the field, Wesley is unlikely to be available to play against Fluminense on Saturday (16). But the decision has nothing to do with the case of aggression against businessman Kaio Mana. The full-back is recovering from a minor muscle injury and is away from group activities at Ninho do Urubu. Wesley has not been linked since February 25th.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

0Tite defined Flamengo and announced the 11 starters who will face Peñarol, this Thursday, at Maracanã, at 7pm. De la Cruz returns to the starting lineup in place of Léo Ortiz, and Alex Sandro and Plata were retained. The duel with the Uruguayans is the first between the teams in the quarter-finals of the Copa Conmebol Libertadores.
Alex Sandro and Plata, debutants in last Sunday's classic, remain in the team after having good performances in the draw against Vasco. Gabigol is now out of the relationship due to fibrosis in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. Flamengo, in a statement, reported that the athlete did not suffer any injury in the region. Check it out:
"The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that the athlete Gabriel Barbosa underwent tests that did not diagnose an injury to the posterior muscle of his right thigh. However, the Technical Committee opted for precaution and did not list him for the duel against Peñarol due to fibrosis in the region. Gabi is handed over to physiotherapists and physical trainers for the series of decisive games of the season."
Match starts at 7pm this Thursday

The presenter demanded a more serious stance from Rodolfo Landim

0Last Monday (11), right-back Wesley was involved in a fight with Kaio Mana on Barra da Tijuca beach, where the player attacked the businessman by punching him in the face, in addition to making threats. In this way, Flamengomade it clear which will not rush any punishment to the athlete, but presenter Thiago Amar, known as Pilhado, did not like the club's stance.
In this Tuesday's edition of the program Bate Ponto (12), Pilhado commented on the handling of the case by Flamengo. The presenter recalled the attack by vice-president of football Marcos Braz on a fan, in 2023. For him, as Braz was not punished, the club has no morality to punish Wesley or any other case of indiscipline.
“If they punish Wesley, and they didn't punish Marcos Braz, there is something wrong there. Because he is an aggressor in the same way, he attacked a fan in a cowardly way, from behind, if they punish Wesley and don't punish Marcos Braz, something will have to be asked not by the leader's friends who ask questions at a press conference, but by a serious reporter who you don’t need to drool over the egg to gain information”, he said.
RODOLFO LANDIM WITHOUT MORAL?Also according to Pilhado, the president of Flamengo, Rodolfo Landim, there is no morality to punish Wesley after keeping Braz normally in office despite the leader having become a defendant for aggression and having had his version of the case exposed as a lie.
“If Marcos Braz was not punished, Rodolfo Landim , if Marcos Braz remained vice-president of Flamengo and was not removed, what morality will you have to do anything with Wesley? If the football deputy attacked, bit a fan in the groin, kicked him on the ground, grabbed him from behind, and nothing happened to Marcos Braz, why would anything happen to Wesley? What’s the difference?”, he asked.
