Next Thursday (08), Flamengo under-20 will take the field in the Brazilian Championship, against Ceará, at the Presidente Vargas Stadium. Coach Filipe Luís' team is trying to confirm its classification for the next phase of the competition and needs to be among the eight best placed, to go to the quarter-finals.
In an interview with Duda Garbi's channel, Filipe Luís recalled his refusal to join the Brazilian team, before taking over Flamengo under-17, in addition, the former full-back spoke about his decision to end his football career and more specifically at Rubro-Negro, his favorite club.
Dispute with Ayrton Lucas and decision to stop
“I was finding it very difficult to finish training, to have a sequence of games. Halfway through the year, with Sampaoli, I learned a lot from him, I said that I was no longer able to compete with Ayrton Lucas. As I didn't want to play for any club other than Flamengo, I said I would try to end the year in the best possible way so that Flamengo would try to come and offer me a renewal and I would say that it was no longer possible (laughs). But it was by mutual agreement. Then I decided to stop. I went on vacation to study (to be a coach).”
“President (Ednaldo Rodrigues) called me and told me about the possibility of plan he had. I was super grateful, just for thinking of me to work for the national team. There is no greater honor, but honestly I told him that it wasn't the best name for this position. Firstly, I'm inexperienced and there are others better than me, like Rodrigo Caetano, who is now there in this role. Most importantly: I wanted to be in the field. I had the possibility of working with Dorival, but I have a very clear idea of the game and it is difficult for me to work for another coach. And it wouldn't be fair for me to start in the national team, I have to start at the bottom, learn, evolve... I wouldn't be an assistant at the level that Dorival deserves.”
The coach of Flamengo's under-20 team has the mission of classifying Rubro-Negro for the next phase of the Brazilian Championship, a tournament in which the team defends its title.

After the end of the first phase of the competition, the team will have the Intercontinental de Clubes decision, which will be the former player's first title opportunity, with Flamengo under-20. It is worth mentioning that Filipe Luís has already won the Copa Rio title, with the under-17 team and is still trying this year, with little experience, for his second title in the youth categories.

In a post on Instagram, the mayor informed that the city hall will be responsible for removing the megastructure on the gas meter site, different from what was reported. Furthermore, he guaranteed that Flamengo will have its new stadium, with the best conditions and security.
The news published by Ancelmo informs that Flamengo would have to pay R$100 million to remove a large gas structure present on land acquired by the club, which is owned by CEG and CEG-Rio, which are companies that are part of the gas concessionaire Naturgy.
According to the article, the companies were informed that Flamengo is the responsible for bearing the expenses, as provided for in one of the annexes to the land purchase and transfer contract. The clause, however, does not have a specified limit.

Flamengo will no longer make signings in 2024, this is what Marcos Braz guarantees. After qualifying for the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil, this Thursday (12), the vice-president of red-black football gave an interview in the mixed zone of Maracanã and confirmed that the club considered hiring a new striker after Pedro's injury. But the board's final decision is to trust the attackers who are in the squad.
“We believe in the end. There were four hired at the beginning of the year, four now. We raised the hypothesis of bringing in a striker, but we understood, talking to everyone, that it was bringing someone to actually solve it”, began Braz after Flamengo 1 x 0 Bahia.
The manager recalled that Gabigol and Bruno Henrique has already been very decisive with the Sacred Mantle and has all the capacity to take over the top scorer spot. Camisa 27, in fact, was the author of the assist for the winning goal this Thursday.
“Whoever we have here has solved our problem many times, like Gabigol, Bruno 9, as he did today. Flamengo has already closed the window. Let's go with what we have until the end, recovering players. Gabigol returned today.”.
Some attackers were offered after Pedro suffered a serious injury while serving the national team. The name that gained the most traction within Flamengo was that of Frenchman Anthony Martial, formerly of Manchester United, but the deal did not move forward. Now, Marcos Braz confirms that Mengão is no longer on the market.
Flamengo signed this season: De La Cruz, Viña, Léo Ortiz, Carlinhos, Michael, Alex Sandro, Carlos Alcaraz and Gonzalo Plata. Reinforcements that together cost R$298.2 million to the club's coffers.
“It happens in football. Gabriel solved our problems several times and resolved them well. I'm not casting, but there's Bruno Henrique himself, Carlinhos. We are comfortable (with these attackers) for the competitions”, added Braz.
Marcos Braz admits Gabigol's departure from FlamengoGabigol was the main theme of the football vice interview. Asked once again about a possible contract renewal, Braz finally acknowledged that the trend is for Camisa 99 to leave at the end of the season.
“There may be a chance of contract renewal. It’s not impossible, but, unfortunately, it’s unlikely today”, concluded Marcos Braz.
