Vinicius Júnior , one of the biggest names in world football today, took his first steps in the youth ranks of Flamengo . Eduardo Bandeira de Mello, president of the club between 2013 and 2018, followed the start of the striker's career closely. In an interview with the Lance! portal, the former director spoke about his pride in seeing the athlete's growth and regretted that he left Flamengo at a very young age.
According to Bandeira, Vini Jr. has been attracting attention since he was 12 years old , and is considered by many to be the “ new Neymar ”. However, he considered that many promising talents end up not consolidating themselves, which was not the case for the youngster trained at Ninho do Urubu. “ Unfortunately, we were unable to keep him at Flamengo ; no one can keep a player at his level in Brazilian football”, commented the former president.
In addition to his performance on the field, Bandeira highlighted Vinicius Júnior's positioning off the field. For him, the Real Madrid forward has demonstrated maturity and social responsibility since the beginning of his career. “ He understood how important he is. He always had that in mind . Even before all this racist cowardice he has been the target of, he was already carrying out social actions that many people don't even know about,” he highlighted, praising the player's commitment.
This Wednesday (28), Vinicius Júnior will be back up close with the Mengão fans. The player will watch the match between Flamengo and Deportivo Táchira (VEN) , at Maracanã, valid for the last round of the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. The ball will roll at 9:30 pm (Brasília time). The athlete's presence should attract a lot of attention from the fans, who should fill the stadium to support the team in its quest for qualification.
With 8 points, Flamengo is in second place in Group C , tied with LDU (EQU), but ahead on goal difference. The leader of the group is Central Córdoba (ARG), with 11 points . Deportivo Táchira is in last place and has already been eliminated, without adding any points . The decisive match will be broadcast on TV Globo, on free-to-air TV, and on ESPN, on pay TV. The ball starts rolling at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã.

Flamengo received important news this Monday (4). Midfielder Arrascaeta underwent tests at the club's training center, Ninho do Urubu, which ruled out any muscle injury in the thigh. Thus, the number 10 is fit to reinforce the team in the return match against Atlético-MG , in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.
The Uruguayan was substituted at halftime of the match against Ceará last weekend after complaining of muscle discomfort. The decision to withdraw him was made by coach Filipe Luís as a preventative measure , avoiding the worsening of a possible clinical condition.
The player's departure at half-time caused apprehension among fans, who feared the absence of the team's main playmaker in a decisive match. However, tests carried out on Monday ruled out any medical concerns , and Arrascaeta is available to the coaching staff for the match against Atlético-MG, on Wednesday (6).
Internally, the news was received enthusiastically, particularly given the tactical importance the midfielder represents to the team's attacking system . If he's fully fit by game day, Arrascaeta is likely to start.
After a 1-0 defeat in the first leg at Maracanã, Flamengo needs to win by two goals to secure a direct spot in the quarterfinals. If Flamengo wins by one goal, the match will go to penalties . A draw or another defeat in Belo Horizonte will result in Flamengo 's elimination from the competition.
