Coach Dorival Júnior was frustrated when Corinthians missed the opportunity to sign Victor Hugo , Flamengo's 21-year-old midfielder. The coach had wanted to work with the youngster again, having previously coached him at Flamengo. However, a FIFA transfer ban imposed due to a debt owed to Santos Laguna for the purchase of defender Félix Torres prevented the São Paulo club from registering new players. This paved the way for Santos to sign the player .
According to UOL, in addition to Corinthians , Victor Hugo received inquiries from clubs such as Pafos (CHP), Anderlecht (BEL), Famalicão (POR) and Algarve (POR) , but chose to transfer to Santos, on loan, until December 2026. At the Vila Belmiro team, the midfielder will have the opportunity to play alongside Neymar.
Victor Hugo's departure is part of Flamengo 's restructuring, which seeks to streamline the squad and open new revenue streams. The club recently sold Matheus Gonçalves to Al Ahli (SAU) and loaned Lorran to Pisa (ITA) . Now, the board is focusing its efforts on potential negotiations involving Michael and Juninho, who could also leave Ninho do Urubu.
A product of Flamengo's youth academy, Victor Hugo was promoted to the professional ranks in 2022 and participated in the club's Copa do Brasil and Copa Libertadores victories. Despite a promising start, he eventually lost his place under Tite and was loaned to Turkish football.
Back in Brazil, he nearly signed with Famalicão, but the deal fell through. He even received a few opportunities under Filipe Luís, but failed to establish himself , leading the club to opt for a long-term loan.

Atlético-MG has opened negotiations to bring back Jorge Sampaoli , formerly of Flamengo, as the team's head coach. The Argentine coach gained traction at the club after failing in negotiations with Martín Anselmi and is already considered the favorite to take over.
The first negotiations, which began on Monday night (01), are being conducted virtually. Sampaoli currently lives in Rio de Janeiro. The information was published by the newspaper O Tempo. On social media, part of the Galo fans are already mobilizing in support of the coach's return .
Without a club since leaving Rennes in France, Sampaoli has had a low-key run in European football. In charge of the French team, he played 10 games, winning just 3 and losing 7 , in a period of about two months.
His first stint at Atlético-MG was between 2020 and 2021, with 45 matches, totaling 25 wins, 9 draws, and 10 losses . Despite finishing three points short of the Brazilian title, the Argentine is remembered as a key player in the formation of the squad that would win historic titles in 2021, as he indicated the signing of most of the players.
Sampaoli arrives to replace Cuca, who was fired after the 2-0 loss to Cruzeiro in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals at Arena MRV. Pressure had already been mounting, and the setback against their biggest rival was a key factor in the coach's departure.
In 2023, Sampaoli also managed Flamengo , accumulating 39 games, with 20 wins. Despite this, he left the club with criticism , after eliminations in the Libertadores, defeat in the Copa do Brasil final and performance below expectations in the Brasileirão.
The direct confrontation for the leadership of the Brasileirão between Mengão and Raposa takes place in October, at Maracanã, and fans can already guarantee tickets

Flamengo and Estudiantes (ARG) will face each other on September 18th and 25th in search of a spot in the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores da América . Most experts consider Flamengo to be the favorite, but according to former defender Leandro Desábato, who won the competition in 2009 with the Argentine club, the first leg at the Maracanã will be decisive.
Debate about Flamengo vs Estudiantes, in the Libertadores: "If you get a good result in Brazil, you'll have a chance"
"Flamengo has a very good team. I thought Estudiantes would decide it away, but it will be at home. If they get a good result in Brazil, they'll have a chance. When you put pressure on the fans and make the opponent feel it, they don't like it . Estudiantes has good players who have dropped off in performance, but they remain important," said Desábato.
The former defender also highlighted the strength of the Argentine fans as a decisive factor: "Estudiantes is highly respected, a role model. Players who play there always say it's a different club, and that helps a lot. The fans transmit this energy, and in the Libertadores, it's even more felt . They make you believe you're going to win, even without having the best team," he added in an interview with Cielosports.
Estudiantes secured home advantage after finishing first in Group A , the same as Botafogo, with 12 points. Flamengo , in turn, advanced with 11 points in Group C. In the round of 16, the team from La Plata eliminated Cerro Porteño (PAR), winning 1-0 away and drawing 0-0 at home.
The winner of the match will face the qualifier from Racing (ARG) vs Vélez Sarsfield (ARG) in the semi-finals .
