Diego Ribas, former player of Flamengo, participated in the podcast "10 e Faixa" and recalled an old theme. The former number 10 of Mais Querido recalled the episode in which a journalist published an article about attitudes inside the dressing room at Rubro-Negro, possibly against the coach.

At the time , Diego remembers being angry at not having been asked about the subject and seeing an article with such content being published without any demand for him. Furthermore, he says he saw it as a malicious act on the part of the professional. Everything indicates that the former player is talking about Venê Casagrande and the information published about the midfielder being one of the leaders of a pot within the club club.


“I was passing by because of a situation at Flamengo, and they did an article, and I said: 'Man, not there'. Wow, you're doing this, you're hurting the team, you want to remove the coach. I saw that, man, what impresses me most is that no one told me to know, to talk, gave me the opportunity. That's the worst thing you can do. You write the material the way you think, you use the source issue, which I learned, that's not a source, it's just bad behavior”, he begins.

DIEGO HAD TO POINT OUT NAMES < The former player also recalled that he made a video about the subject, but he was not clear what it was about. In this way, he responded to a request from PVC, to publish again, naming those responsible for the article

“The article came out the other day, for me, it was over. I turned on the phone, made a seven, ten minute video, said what I had to say. The PVC called my advisor: ‘tell Diego that the positioning was very good, but he has to mention his name’. The other day I named it, this one and this one. If the source is not very reliable, it ends up that he hides his bad intentions behind a source”, says the player

Belgian player Kevin De Bruyne, one of Manchester City's main names, made scathing criticisms of the new format of the Club Super World Cup, a competition that will be played in 2025 and will feature the participation of 32 teams, including Brazilians Flamengo, Fluminense and Palmeiras. The tournament, which will have a similar format to the World Cup, did not please the player due to the overload of games and the impact on the athletes' calendar.

In a press conference, De Bruyne expressed his dissatisfaction with the short interval between the end of the Club World Cup and the start of the Premier League season. "The problem will come when the Club World Cup ends. We will only have three weeks between the final and the first round of the Premier League. There are three weeks to take a vacation and prepare to play more than 80 games. Maybe it will work this year, but it will be a problem the following year", warned the player.

The Belgian midfielder's concern extends to the increasing number of matches that athletes need to play in various competitions throughout the season, affecting performance so much regarding the physical well-being of the players.


LACK OF SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM

De Bruyne also criticized FIFA and UEFA for not listening to the concerns of the players and their associations: “The PFA (Professional Players Association) in England and unions in other countries tried to find solutions. The problem is that UEFA and FIFA play more matches, and we tried to say something, but no solution was found. They don't care. It seems that money speaks louder than players", he said.


COMPETITION DEFINED FOR 2025

FIFA has already announced the dates of the Club Super World Cup, which will begin on June 15, 2025 and will conclude on July 13 of the same year. The competition promises to bring together great teams from different continents, providing an unprecedented format with 32 participants.


Brazilian clubs Flamengo, Fluminense and Palmeiras guaranteed a place in the tournament as they were the last champions of the Copa Libertadores da América, with Flamengo winning the title in 2022.

Last Wednesday (4), Flamengo held the seventh edition of the Sangue Rubro-negro campaign, at the Gávea headquarters. Hemorio's partner team was at the Gávea headquarters, from 10am to 3pm, collecting blood in the playground's party room. Athletes, employees and associates were able to donate and make a difference: each bag of blood can save up to four lives.

In addition to encouraging blood donation, the campaign also sought to raise awareness about the importance of this act of generosity and how it can save lives. “The partnership with Flamengo Social Responsibility is very important. More than attracting donors, this action seeks to awaken civic and social sentiment, ensure greater dissemination and demystify fears. It is an extremely educational and important action for maintaining stocks”, declared Dr. Renata de Almeida, a Hemorio doctor present at the action.


Blood donation is essential for health units to continue serving patients undergoing treatments and surgeries. The only way to guarantee the blood supply is through voluntary donations.


To donate blood, you must have an official identification document with photo, original or certified copy; be between 16 and 69 years old; be fed and in good health; weigh more than 50 kg; not be pregnant or breastfeeding. For more information about donating blood, visit www.hemorio.rj.gov.br or call 0800 282 0708. Hemorio is located at Rua Frei Caneca, nº 8, in the center of Rio. Donate blood, donate life!
