Filipe Luís is a name that stood out during Flamengo's period of success and is considered by many to be one of the greatest full-backs in the club's history, winning recent titles. His time at Rubro-Negro Carioca immortalized him in the club's history.

However, the focus now turns to speculation about his future, as there is information suggesting that he has made an important decision about his career. According to Journalist Pablo Raphael, from Gazeta do Urubu, Mais Querido dreams of playing for another year for Fla.


“Filipe Luís has the desire to play for another year, until the end of 2024. However, Flamengo has not signaled a renewal with the full-back who is currently physically well (without injury) . Today, Filipe's only chance of renewing with the club is if Tite asks for the player to stay”, our website found out from reliable people, close to the number 16. 


It is worth remembering that until the At the moment, the tendency is for the experienced full-back not to stay at Fla. He was not approached by the board and could leave the team at the end of his contract in December. What could change Filipe's scenario is the possibility that Tite can count on the player for next season.

In the relationship between Gabigol and coach Tite at Flamengo, only the field is capable of speaking. Between the striker and coach, there is practically no dialogue, and the cold and silent war dictates that only one of them should remain at the club for the season in 2025.

No atmosphere with the coaching staff and also with the squad , Gabriel Barbosa has been convinced to change and airs, but even the clubs that expressed interest in the first half of the year backed away. With a contract at Flamengo until the end of December, Gabigol had offers from Palmeiras, Corinthians and Santos, was mentioned at Grêmio, but did not want to sign a pre-contract with any team.


The expectation was to try to turn things around on top in the second half, otherwise he would end his time at Flamengo like the idol he became, without any fuss.


Tite's arrival last year changed the entire perspective of the striker, who was already in a bad phase previously, and lost his place once and for all to Pedro with the presence of the new coach. With the center forward's recent injury, Tite kept Gabigol at the end of the line, under the argument that Carlinhos and Bruno Henrique perform better in the scheme with a reference man .

Without understanding the criteria, Gabi maintains her dedication to the basic level of professionalism in training, as it is not part of the coach's or the club's plans for a possible renewal. With the chances of a comeback practically buried, the two possible paths are to wait for the election in Flamengo to find out if Tite will remain with the next president; or wait for the end of the contract to freely listen to proposals again. Palmeiras and Santos have not yet given up on the idea, and Bahia appears as an option, as it has good investment capacity.
