FORMER MANAGER MAKES BOMBASTIC REVELATION ABOUT REINFORCEMENT OF THE ATLÉTICO WHO WAS IN FLAMENGO'S SIGHTS

Three weeks ago, Juninho's representatives presented the club with two loan offers from Arab football . The board, however, rejected the proposals, making it clear that they would only agree to a permanent deal for the striker for a fair fee. Thus, despite previously being on the "expendable" list, the player remained on the roster and will be reused.

Despite the limited opportunities he's had on the pitch so far, Filipe Luís expresses confidence in Juninho. The coach noted that the striker has performed well in training and is maintaining good physical shape. He is expected to return to the squad and earn playing time in the Brazilian Championship. It's worth noting that his signing was approved by the coaching staff at the time.

TECHNICAL COMMITTEE PRIORITIZES INTERNAL SOLUTIONS

Bruno Henrique's suspension is unlikely to result in any market movements. Mengão was already considering the possibility of losing the number 27 and believes the current squad offers sufficient alternatives. Filipe Luís believes Pedro has reached his peak physical form and can assume a greater offensive role , while Gonzalo Plata and Wallace Yan are options for the midfield. Furthermore, Juninho will be reinstated in the Brasileirão squad.

DETAILS OF THE STJD DECISION

The Superior Court of Sports Justice sentenced Bruno Henrique this Thursday (29) to a 12-game suspension and the payment of a fine of R$60,000 . The decision is valid for national competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil, but does not affect, for now, the Libertadores.

However, the case is expected to be referred to FIFA . If the governing body agrees to extend the ban, the striker will also be barred from international matches, increasing the impact of the punishment for Mengão.

Goalkeeper Bruno, a former Flamengo player , has returned to soccer, this time in an amateur tournament. After a period marked by one of the most controversial cases in Brazilian sports , the athlete is trying to find his place in a new arena.

The former goalkeeper's career gained notoriety both for his performance on the field and for the tragic episode involving the death of his ex-wife , Elisa Samudio, which culminated in his arrest and great national repercussion.

Rive Club recently officially announced the signing of Bruno for the 2025 Municipal de Alegre Championship. The board expressed enthusiasm for the new signing, citing the player's experience and technical ability. " The Rive board is pleased to announce goalkeeper Bruno as another addition to the Municipal de Alegre Championship 2025 ," the team announced on social media.

BRUNO'S FIRST WORDS

In a message to fans, the goalkeeper expressed excitement and gratitude for the opportunity. " Hello, Alegre! Beautiful and wonderful city. Hello, Rive fan. I want to tell you that I'm committed to the Municipal Championship. Next Sunday I'll be there defending Rive's colors, and we'll begin our journey, " he declared.

UNDERSTAND THE CONVICTION

In March 2013, Bruno was sentenced to 22 years and three months in prison for the murder of Eliza Samudio . The court found him guilty of triple homicide, kidnapping, and concealment of a corpse.

The former goalkeeper was granted habeas corpus in February 2017 , but returned to prison two months later, following a decision by the First Chamber of the Supreme Federal Court. In July 2019, he was granted the right to progress to a semi-open prison regime. He has been on parole since January 2023.

Flamengo closed the mid-2025 transfer window with intense market activity. The balance sheet released by the board shows that the club raised more than it invested , strengthening its cash flow and strengthening its squad.

R$518.4 million was received from the departure of seven players , including important names such as Gerson (R$160.6 million), Wesley (R$162.2 million) and Fabrício Bruno (R$44 million). At the same time, the club continued to sign strategic players, projecting to close the year with revenue exceeding R$1.7 billion.

EXIT NEGOTIATIONS

The biggest sale of the window was Wesley, who netted the club R$162.2 million. Besides him, Charly Alcaraz (R$96 million) and Matheus Gonçalves (R$50 million) also left the team , totaling significant sums. Loans and other transfers rounded out the list of moves that helped bolster the club's coffers.

BIGGEST PURCHASE IN HISTORY AND ARRIVALS

Despite significant departures, the board remained focused on strengthening the squad. In total, seven signings were made for 2025, three of which were free: Danilo, Jorginho, and Saúl Ñiguez.

The biggest investment was Samuel Lino, acquired for R$143 million in a historic deal for the club. Besides him, Emerson Royal (R$58 million), Jorge Carrascal (R$77 million), and Juninho (R$31 million) completed the list of paid reinforcements.
