After Tite's departure, Flamengo promoted Filipe Luís to the technical command of the main team. The young coach, who has already won titles with Rubro-Negro's youth teams this season, has the opportunity to lift three cups in three different categories in 2024.
Filipe Luís' first job was with the under-17 team Flamengo, at the beginning of the season. Under his leadership, the team won the Rio Cup in the category, achieving 11 victories in 13 games, which made the coach stand out among the Boys of the Ninho.
Achievement in the under-20s
In the middle of the year, Filipe Luís took over the under-20 team after the departure of Mário Jorge and won the world title in the category. Flamengo beat Olympiacos (Greece) 2-1 at Maracanã, lifting the trophy in front of their fans.
Search by title in professional
Now at the head of the main team, Filipe Luís can win another title this season. Flamengo is in the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil and continues in the fight for the Brazilian Championship trophy. In the Brasileirão, Mais Querido is nine points behind the leader, Botafogo, and could get closer as they have one game less than the black and white team. In the national cup, Mengão is in the semi-finals and only needs a draw to qualify for the final of the event.
Next Flamengo game
With a focus on keeping Flamengo in contention for the Brasileirão title, Filipe Luís leads the team in the classic against Fluminense. The game will be on October 17th (Thursday), at 8pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 30th round of the championship.
Imperador had a good time in Italy, but he doesn't hide that the decision to leave Mengão was a wrong one on his part.

A longtime Flamengo idol, Adriano Imperador made history in 2009 by leading the team to the Brazilian Championship title. However, after the successful season, the striker left the club to join Roma (ITA) in 2010. Today, the former player recognizes that the decision wasn't the best of his career.
Adriano on leaving Flamengo for Roma in 2010: "I think it was the wrong decision I made"
"I think it was a wrong decision I made, and it's not even about the money. I think I agreed to return to Rome more out of excitement than because it was something I really wanted ," Adriano said in an interview with Romário TV .
The Emperor also explained that he felt a kind of duty to Italian football: " Although I owed it to the Italian people , because when I left Inter I kind of left, I didn't give any explanations. It was something I felt I needed to do," he added.
Revealed in Flamengo 's youth academy, Adriano made his professional debut in 2000 and transferred to Inter Milan in 2001. His return to Rubro-Negro took place in 2009, with a huge impact: decisive goals, idolatry and the national title.
In total, adding up both spells, the striker played 92 matches, scored 45 goals and won the 2009 Brasileirão and the 2001 Carioca , establishing himself as one of the greatest idols in the club's history and is still in the fans' imagination.
While Adriano now follows as a fan, Flamengo returns to the field this Thursday (18) to face Estudiantes (ARG) , at Maracanã, for the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores. The match will be broadcast by ESPN (pay TV) and Disney+ (streaming), starting at 9:30 pm (Brasília time).

Flamengo published an official statement on Monday night (15) to alert the Red-Black Nation about a scam circulating on social media. Fans reported having been victims when trying to purchase tickets for the games against Estudiantes, for the Copa Libertadores , and against Vasco, for the Brazilian Championship.
According to the club, there is a fake website imitating Flamengo's official visual identity with the aim of misleading fans. The statement reinforces that the only official ticket sales channel is ingressos.flamengo.com.br.
"We would like to emphasize that all official ticket sales are made exclusively through the above platform. We ask the Red-Black Nation to be extra vigilant and avoid accessing or making any purchases on unofficial websites . If you have any questions, always consult the club's official channels," Flamengo said.
For this Thursday's match (18), against Estudiantes, for the Copa Libertadores , there are only tickets left for the Maracanã Mais sector. The same is repeated for the duel against Vasco on the 21st, with only a few tickets remaining in the Maracanã Mais sector.
The club advises fans to report any ticket listings outside of official channels and not to make purchases through suspicious platforms . As the home team for both matches, Flamengo emphasizes that sales are only possible through the website ingressos.flamengo.com.br.
After leaving Mais Querido in 2024 and remaining free on the market, the Brazilian coach is the target of several clubs and national teams across the world of football.

After leading the Brazilian national team in two World Cups, Tite arrived at Flamengo in 2023 with high expectations. However, despite a record of 70 matches, 41 wins, 13 draws, and 16 losses , the team's performance and the coaching choices were criticized by fans and management. His last game in charge was a 1-0 victory over Athletico-PR, with a goal by Gerson.
With Tite's departure, Filipe Luís took over as Flamengo's coach and has been one of the highlights of the 2025 season . The former full-back has received praise for his work at the club, while Tite remains a free agent, attracting interest from South American clubs and national teams.
According to GE reporter Bruno Cassucci, the Venezuelan Football Federation has opened talks with Tite to take over the team's leadership during the World Cup qualifiers . The goal is to leverage the Brazilian coach's experience to lead the country through the cycle until 2030.
According to Cassucci, Tite must undergo knee surgery before making a final decision about his career. Even so, the Venezuelan Federation doesn't see the surgery as an obstacle, as the South American qualifiers are on hold after the last FIFA World Cup.
Flamengo faces Estudiantes this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. The duel marks the beginning of the knockout stage in the quarterfinals of the continental competition. The match will be broadcast live on ESPN , on pay TV, and on Disney+ for streaming.
