EXTRA FLAMENGO: CARLO ANCELOTTI RENEWS CONTRACT WITH REAL MADRID AND DESTROYS CBF PLANS

Former goalkeeper Bruno Fernandes, who gained national prominence when playing for Flamengoand was convicted of the murder of Eliza Samudio , now works as a furniture delivery man. At 39 years old, Bruno was seen performing his new role in Rio das Ostras, a city on the coast of Rio de Janeiro. The information was released by CNN Brasil.

The revelation of Bruno's new occupation was made by the "Rio das Ostras 24 hora" profile on Instagram. A video published on the platform shows the former player unloading furniture from a truck in the city center. He would be working for a furniture company that also operates in Cabo Frio and Macaé, other locations on the coast of Rio de Janeiro.

In 2023, Bruno had already released videos on social media promoting a furniture company, which indicated his approach to this new field of activity.

Bruno was sentenced to 22 years in prison in 2010 for the crimes of murder and concealment of corpse of Eliza Samudio, in addition to the kidnapping of her son Bruninho. At the time, he was a goalkeeper for Mais Querido, and his arrest interrupted a career that was on the rise. Bruno became Brazilian champion in 2009 and, in 2010, he was in advanced negotiations to move to Milan, in Italy.

Created by Flamengo and considered one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, Lucas Paquetá does not hide his love for Mais Querido. Now, the player tries to pass on this red-black passion to the next generation. Thus, the athlete appeared in a video on social media teaching his son to sing the Mengo anthem.

In images published on social media by Lucas Paquetá's wife, which were reposted by the athlete, he appears at a moment relaxing with his family and helping his son sing the Flamengo anthem, even joking: “you have to sing it all”.

It is worth remembering that Lucas Paquetá was one of the names desired by the Red and Black board in the last transfer window. The midfielder is linked to West Ham (ING), but is experiencing a turbulent situation in England. This is because the midfielder is being investigated by the English Federation (FA) for "misconduct in relation to betting" in four Premier League matches.

Thus, Mais Querido even tried to convince the English team that a change of scenery would be positive for the player. However, West Ham did not accept the values ​​proposed by Flamengo and the negotiation did not progress.

Most Querido is focused on the confrontation against Peñarol, in the Libertadores quarter-finals. Therefore, Flamengo faces the Uruguayans this Thursday (19), at 7pm, at Maracanã.

One of the main targets of criticism in the bad phase that the Brazilian team is facing is Vini Jr. Without being able to apply the football he parades in Real Madrid, the former Flamengo player was analyzed by his coach Carlo Ancelotti, who commented on why the athlete played poorly at the service of Brazil.

In a press conference before the game against Real Sociedad in LaLIga, the Italian coach assessed Vini's moment not only in the national team, but also in the club, and reiterated the importance of the star in the team Spanish.

“Vinícius is not at his best, but he continues to be very important for us. He was decisive in the European Super Cup, for example. He hasn't scored goals like we're used to seeing, but we're in no rush about that: the team scores and he's important, he always gives everything he can. In Brazil, it's a general problem, because the team isn't playing its best football. Here we remain enchanted with him, no one can forget that we won two Champions Leagues with him”, declared Ancelotti.

Nominated, and perhaps the favorite to win the best player in the world awards, in the National Team, Vini Jr has numbers discreet. Since his debut, there have been 35 games played and only five goals scored.

Beyond the moment of Vini Jr, another point discussed by Ancelotti at the press conference was a possible transfer of the youngster to Arab football. Rumors suggest that Vini could be the player with the highest salary in the history of sports if he accepted the offer.

However, despite the buzz in the press, Ancelotti claims that he knows and talks to his players, and that nothing reached his ears about the matter.

“I don't know if this offer really arrived. I speak to all the players, but we never spoke to Vinícius about this offer. He won't lose his idea of ​​what he has to do because of things that come from outside”, said the coach.

In the current season, Vini Jr has already played five games, with one goal and three passes to goal.
