With the approval of Filipe Luís and alignment with the top brass, Flamengo is already working to reinforce the squad with three specific names. Two wingers and a midfielder are in the red-black team's sights for this mid-year. The idea is clear: to look for players with unbalancing power, capable of changing games in a scenario common in South American football — that of defensive defenses.
The information was released by journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira , and is in line with what was seen in the game against Táchira . The team had possession, controlled the territory, but produced little offensively until the final minutes. And the internal assessment is that, in knockout matches or even in Brasileirão games, this type of scenario tends to repeat itself.
The football department has already drawn up a profile of the desired reinforcements. The priority is to find attackers who can play on the wings, but who can also read the game to infiltrate inside. Ideally, they should have quality dribbling, the ability to accelerate the game in tight spaces and who know how to create goal-scoring situations without relying exclusively on long passes.
It is no surprise that a name mentioned behind the scenes as a style reference — and not as a target — was the young Lamine Yamal, from Barcelona. The club knows that the Spaniard is financially unattainable, but understands that athletes with similar characteristics can be identified in the South American or European market in more accessible scenarios.
Internally, there is an understanding that Luiz Araújo has been establishing himself on the right side. Gerson 's return to the midfield, forced by injuries in the sector, opened up space for the number 7 to gain continuity as a winger. And, so far, he has responded. The problem lies on the other side. Michael and Everton Cebolinha, despite the opportunities and the history of good moments, have not managed to repeat consistent performances in succession. The technical inconsistency of both weighs on the balance and reinforces the need to find a more consistent name.
Alvinegro still owed Mengão for the signing of Matheuzinho, but managed to deposit a huge amount to close the matter.

Flamengo received, this Friday (1st), another millionaire amount related to the sale of right-back Matheuzinho. Corinthians paid around R$ 14 million to Rubro-Negro , paying off the remaining amount of the negotiation made in February of this year.
At the time, the Rio de Janeiro club sold the player for R$21.48 million, but Corinthians delayed the third installment of the agreement. As a result, Flamengo demanded immediate payment of the entire outstanding amount . The information was initially reported by the portal Meu Timão.
To facilitate the payment, Corinthians signed an agreement with Brax, the company responsible for marketing advertising signs for both clubs. The company acted as guarantor for the deal and transferred the funds to Flamengo .
By August, Corinthians had already paid R$8 million directly to the Rio de Janeiro club. It then transferred R$7.58 million to Brax , which topped up the amount with another R$6 million , fully settling the debt with the club.
While the board celebrates receiving the amount, Flamengo remains focused on the field. The team led by Filipe Luís returns to play this Sunday (3), against Ceará, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. The match will be broadcast live on Premiere, on pay-per-view.

Flamengo has already made four signings official this transfer window , but the delay in negotiations has drawn criticism from some fans . During striker Samuel Lino's presentation, football director José Boto spoke out on the matter and apologized to the Flamengo Nation.
“Sometimes things take a little longer than the fans want, and I apologize to the fans, but we ( Flamengo 's board) have fixed ideas, and as long as it's possible to have the players we want , we'll go after it,” explained Boto.
Brazilian football's second transfer window opened on July 10th, and Flamengo began the period cautiously, monitoring the market and evaluating options. As the weeks progressed, the board accelerated negotiations and secured four key signings : Saúl Ñíguez, Emerson Royal, Samuel Lino, and Jorge Carrascal.
Despite the names already confirmed, Flamengo remains attentive to the market. The club is in ongoing negotiations with Fiorentina, Italy, to sign striker Lucas Beltrán . Flamengo has already agreed on a fee with the Italian club, but still needs to convince the Argentine player to return to South America.
While the board works behind the scenes, the squad led by Filipe Luís focuses on the challenges on the field. Flamengo's next match is this Sunday (3), against Ceará , at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brazilian Championship.
Mengão will start selling tickets for the next three home matches in the Brasileirão on Monday (4).
