Flamengo announced this Friday, November 1st, the renewal of the contract with striker Cristiane until the end 2026. With extensive experience and stints with the Brazilian National Team, shirt number 11 is the club's top scorer this year, with 17 goals scored in 25 matches. The athlete reinforced her commitment to the club's women's football development project, where, according to her, she feels at home.


“It's like the anthem says, once Flamengo, always < b>Flamengo. Playing here is something unique, and I'm very happy for this renewal. I feel it is a privilege to wear the Sacred Mantle and have the support of the Nation, my teammates and the entire technical committee,” stated Cristiane.




PATH THROUGH FLAMENGO AND IMPACT ON THE ATTACK

Hired by Mais Querido in early 2024 after playing for Santos, Cristiane quickly established herself as a key player in the team. In a short time, he accumulated 17 goals and two assists in 25 matches, standing out in the season's competitions.


No Brazilian Championship, the top scorer scored six goals, even though Mengão was eliminated in the first phase. In the Copa Rio, there were four goals in four games, in addition to the four goals in progress.


PERFORMANCE AND PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

The player also took the opportunity to speak out to the red and black fans on social media. “This year, I scored a lot of goals and it was a privilege to represent the Nation. I'm here to continue making history, seeking titles and joining this fan base until 2026. Let's go, Mengão!” said the top scorer, in a message of thanks and encouragement to the fans.

The announcement of ticket prices for the Conmebol Libertadores semifinal match between Flamengo and Racing (ARG) has sparked a strong backlash on social media. Some fans consider the prices to be high and believe the club is driving the "common people" away from Maracanã , which, according to many, directly impacts the club's traditional energy in the stands.


The match takes place on October 22nd at 9:30 pm at Maracanã Stadium. The club has released the sales schedule and prices for members and the general public , with tickets ranging from R$87.50 to R$600 in conventional areas, and exceeding R$2,000 for premium packages.


FANS COMPLAIN ABOUT ELITIZATION


On social media, many Flamengo fans expressed dissatisfaction with the prices. The main criticism is that the high cost prevents access for some of the more popular fans , who traditionally provide the vibrant atmosphere and parties in the stands. "I already foresee a silent Maracanã," commented one fan in a viral post on X (formerly Twitter).

Flamengo and Giorgian De Arrascaeta are close to formalizing a new contract. Negotiations resumed in recent weeks and are expected to advance during the FIFA World Cup break. The agreement provides for a contract until December 2028 , with an automatic extension until 2029 if the player meets performance targets set by the parties.


The number 10 currently has a contract with the club until the end of 2026, but he has already expressed his desire to stay longer. Initially, the board didn't see any urgency in bringing forward the talks , but the Uruguayan's prominence this season led Flamengo to prioritize the renewal.


NEGOTIATIONS IN FINAL PHASE


Negotiations began in February, were halted in May, and are now in their final stages. Executive director José Boto and businessman Daniel Fonseca, a former Uruguayan national team player , are leading the talks.

After a rocky start, when negotiations were postponed until 2025, there is now agreement and optimism between the parties. New meetings are expected to take place next week in Rio de Janeiro to finalize the contract details.


URUGUAYAN HIGHLIGHT

So far, Arrascaeta has 19 goals and 13 assists in 48 appearances for Flamengo in 2025 , numbers that confirm his role as one of the squad's key players. In 2019, the year of his debut with the club, he was directly involved in 37 goals (18 scored and 19 assists).
