The Argentine press is pointing out Flamengo as the team to beat in the Libertadores da América 2024. In a vote held this Monday (1), journalists from ESPN Argentina elected Mengão as the “most feared” Brazilian in the tournament and also the great candidate for the title with an advantage over their opponents.
This season's final will be in Buenos Aires, and Argentine fans dream of interrupting Brazil's dominance in the tournament at home. However, the newspaper points to Flamengo as the main threat to Argentine clubs due to the star-studded squad and the presence of coach Tite.
The arrival of De La Cruz also gained prominence. A star of River Plate and among the best in Argentine football for five seasons, the Uruguayan arrived at Flamengo taking over as a starter and is receiving a lot of praise from fans and the press.
“The reasons why the Rio team is the The main favorites to win the Libertadores are many and varied, but there is one that stands out: the amount of individual talent. Flamengo has a squad made up of players who could stand out in European football. The already star-studded team, which included Rossi, Léo Pereira, Cebolinha, Arrascaeta and Pedro, was reinforced this year with De La Cruz, who was Argentina's best player for a few seasons. Furthermore, they are trained by Tite. Without a doubt, they are the team that no one wants to face in this World Cup”, says the ESPN Argentina analysis.
The top-3 of the list was formed by the last three teams that won the Libertadores: Flamengo, Palmeiras and Fluminense. It is also worth highlighting Botafogo in last place due to the squad's lack of experience. See the list:
