O Flamengo could gain an important reinforcement for the next phase of the Copa Libertadores. According to Conmebol's official regulations, clubs that reach the quarter-finals of the tournament have the opportunity to register up to three new players. This means that, if Flamengo advances from the round of 16, striker Michael will be able to be registered to participate in the subsequent stages of the competition.
Conmebol regulations establish that, after the end of the round of 16, the Clubs classified for the quarterfinals have a specific period to make these new registrations. This rule was implemented to give more flexibility to teams, who often need to adjust their squads due to injuries, transfers or other factors that can impact performance during the decisive stages of the tournament.
FLAMENGO HAS NEW CONDITIONS
Michael, who currently plays for Al Hilal, in Saudi Arabia, has been the subject of speculation about a possible return to Flamengo. The striker left the Rio club at the beginning of 2022, after a notable spell in which he won over the fans with his fast, dribbling style of play. The desire to have Michael in the squad again appears as an alternative to make up for the absence of Everton Cebolinha, who is out of action due to an injury.
The possibility of signing up Michaelfor the quarterfinals The final result, however, depends on some factors. First, Flamengo needs to guarantee its classification for this phase. The team is still in the round of 16, and any planning involving new signings can only be implemented if the team moves on to the next stage. Furthermore, Michael's return will depend on negotiations with Al Hilal, the club with which he has a current contract.
Michael's presence at Flamengo during the Libertadores could bring new dynamism to the red-black attack . Known for his one-on-one ability and his ability to break defensive lines, the player could be a key player in coach Tite's strategies to surprise opponents in the decisive stages of the tournament. Michael's return, however, would not only be a technical addition, but also an emotional one, given the affection that the fans have for him.

At just 18 years old, Léo Nannetti took center stage in the U-20 World Cup final at the Maracanã Stadium. The Flamengo goalkeeper was instrumental in the 2-2 draw in regulation time and shone in the penalty shootout , saving two shots in the 6-5 victory over Barcelona. The goalkeeper's impeccable performance cemented Mengão's title, securing their second title in the intercontinental youth competition.
Before the ball rolled, Léo Nannetti said he received a special message from Agustín Rossi, the starting goalkeeper for the professional squad. The encouragement served as fuel for a great performance: " Rossi sent me a message before the game to reassure me. I was able to put into practice what he and the goalkeeping coach, André, had said. We did a very detailed study and, thank God, I was able to be decisive," he said.
Emotional after the match, Nannetti highlighted the importance of the moment he experienced and the trajectory he built at the club: "It's wonderful to win this title so young alongside my brothers. I've been at Flamengo since 2016. Winning a World Cup with them is unforgettable," he declared.
With solid performances, the goalkeeper confirms his status as a promising young player. He has made 17 official appearances in 2025 and has established himself as one of the most promising players of the 2007 generation.
While the young goalkeeper celebrates, the professional team prepares to face Vitória this Monday (25), at 9 pm (Brasília time) , at Maracanã. More than 35 thousand tickets have already been sold, and the expectation is that the audience will exceed 50 thousand fans.

In a packed Maracanã, Flamengo beat Barcelona on penalties 6-5 , after a thrilling draw in normal time, and secured their second U-20 World Cup title this Saturday (23). The victory consolidated the good moment of the red-black youth team, which once again overcame one of the main clubs in Europe .
Among the protagonists was Matheus Gonçalves , who had a special afternoon. The striker, about to say goodbye to the category, celebrated the achievement with emotion: "It was special. We were raised together since we were little, it has a special taste. My last title with the under-20. I have to congratulate Léo (Nannetti, goalkeeper) and Bruno (Pivetti, coach). It's the second Intercontinental and we are two-time champions. Very happy for everything", he declared.
At 20 years old, having turned 20 on August 18th, the attacking midfielder will dedicate himself exclusively to the first team under Filipe Luís . In 2025, he made 15 professional appearances , including three goals in the Campeonato Carioca.
Despite the confidence of the coaching staff, Gonçalves has only played 313 minutes on the field this season , making his streak difficult due to the strong competition for position with Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino and Gonzalo Plata.
Interest in Matheus Gonçalves isn't new. The player was nearly traded to Cruzeiro for €3.5 million, but the deal fell through . However, foreign clubs remain vigilant: CSKA Moscow (Russia) and Olympiacos (Greece) are evaluating the possibility of formalizing offers before the international window closes in September.
More than 50,000 fans are expected to support Mais Querido, who will face the Bahian team this Monday in the Brasileirão.
