At Flamengo since 2019, executive director Bruno Spindel is leaving the club after seven years of service. His departure was announced this Friday (29) by the Coluna do Fla portal and confirmed by a source linked to the red-black top management.
Spindel began his career in the football department, a position he held from 2019 to 2024. In recent months, however, he has been occupying more discreet roles within the management led by Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as Bap.
During his time at the club, Bruno Spindel worked closely with Marcos Braz and directly contributed to the formation of one of the most successful squads in Mengão's recent history. During this period, the team won 13 trophies: four Campeonato Carioca titles, two Copa do Brasil titles, two Brasileirões titles, two Libertadores titles, two Supercopas do Brasil titles, and one Recopa Sudamericana title.
Before taking over the football department, Spindel had already headed the Marketing department under Eduardo Bandeira de Mello, transitioning to the sports department with the arrival of Rodolfo Landim as president. In early 2024, the director received inquiries from clubs such as Atlético-MG, Santos, and even rival Vasco da Gama , but chose to remain at Flamengo . To date, the club has not provided an official reason for his departure.
While the board is undergoing changes, on the field the team led by Filipe Luís continues in great form. After the 8-0 thrashing of Vitória at Maracanã, Mengão returns to the field this Sunday (30), against Grêmio, for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship.
The Spaniard has been at Mengão for just over a month and is already consolidating his position as a starter, praising Jorginho and highlighting the quality of the red-black squad.

Saúl Ñíguez has been playing for Flamengo for just over a month and has already established himself as a key player in coach Filipe Luís's scheme. In just six matches, the Spaniard has attracted attention not only for his individual technique but also for his synergy with Jorginho in midfield.
During an interview at Ninho do Urubu on Friday (29), the player spoke about adapting to and experiencing the intensity of Brazilian football. “ When you know a player, you know their qualities, how they move on the field , and what the coach asks of them. The level of the team helps them perform at their best, and the team's collaborative approach also helps them adapt. The demands and quality are very high. The group is so good that it helps,” he declared.
When asked about his partnership with Jorginho, Saúl was blunt: " Jorginho is a great player, he understands football perfectly. But also Allan, Evertton, Vitinho (Victor Hugo) and many other players who can play in the middle are of a great level," he said before concluding.
" Nico, who is returning from injury, is looking for rhythm. His skill is very high, despite the games I played with Jorginho in the middle. But we won't always be able to count on Jorginho, we have to value all our teammates," concluded the midfielder.
With Saúl available, Flamengo arrives in high spirits for the 22nd round of the Brasileirão. After the impressive 8-0 victory against Vitória, at Maracanã, the team led by Filipe Luís returns to the field against Grêmio, next Sunday (30).

Flamengo heads into the 22nd round of the Brasileirão in high spirits. After a resounding 8-0 victory over Vitória at Maracanã , Filipe Luís's team has 46 points and leads the competition in isolation.
The next challenge takes place again at Maracanã, this Sunday (31), at 4 pm (Brasília time), against Grêmio . And the Flamengo team will do its last training session during the morning of this Saturday (29), for the confrontation.
One of the season's standouts, Italian-Brazilian Jorginho, is a concern after experiencing thigh pain during the week. The player, a key midfielder, only performed indoor activities at the training center's gym.
Still, he's expected to be available for the match against Grêmio. If he needs to be rested, Filipe Luís could opt to rest him, but the coaching staff considers the midfielder's presence likely. Alongside Saúl and Arrascaeta, the player has formed one of the most consistent trios in Brazilian football.
Since taking over the team, Filipe Luís has maintained a high level of intensity that has resulted in important victories and consistent performance in the tournament. The rout over Vitória confirmed the team's momentum, and over 60,000 fans are expected at Maracanã.
