In recent weeks, Flamengohas been facing a worrying sequence of injuries among its players. In a period of approximately one month, four of the club's athletes needed to undergo surgery, which raises an alarm in the team both in relation to physical preparation and planning for the season.

The first to face surgery it was Everton Cebolinha, on August 14th. The attacker suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in his left ankle. This injury is known to require a long recovery period, with forecasts ranging from six to eight months before returning to the field. This means that Cebolinha will be out of action for a large part of the season, which directly impacts Flamengo's planning.


THE CLUB SUFFERS FROM INJURIES 

No The following day, on August 15, Uruguayan left-back Guillermo Varela also underwent surgery after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. Cruciate ligament injuries are one of the most serious and feared in football, as the recovery time is usually long, generally between six to nine months. Varela's case, similar to that of Cebolinha, represents a weightlessness for the squad.

Just less than a month later, on September 13th, it was striker Pedro's turn to go through the same situation as Varela. The player suffered an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee, another serious injury that requires months of recovery and intensive physiotherapy care. Pedro is one of the main players of Flamengo, and his absence will certainly bring challenges for the team in the remainder of the season.


Finally, on September 16th, Luiz Araújo closed the list of Flamengo athletes who needed surgery in a short period of time. The player suffered a fractured cartilage in his right knee, an injury that also requires surgery and a significant recovery time, varying from three to six months, depending on the severity and the body's response to treatment.

In the relationship between Gabigol and coach Tite at Flamengo, only the field is capable of speaking. Between the striker and coach, there is practically no dialogue, and the cold and silent war dictates that only one of them should remain at the club for the season in 2025.

No atmosphere with the coaching staff and also with the squad , Gabriel Barbosa has been convinced to change and airs, but even the clubs that expressed interest in the first half of the year backed away. With a contract at Flamengo until the end of December, Gabigol had offers from Palmeiras, Corinthians and Santos, was mentioned at Grêmio, but did not want to sign a pre-contract with any team.


The expectation was to try to turn things around on top in the second half, otherwise he would end his time at Flamengo like the idol he became, without any fuss.


Tite's arrival last year changed the entire perspective of the striker, who was already in a bad phase previously, and lost his place once and for all to Pedro with the presence of the new coach. With the center forward's recent injury, Tite kept Gabigol at the end of the line, under the argument that Carlinhos and Bruno Henrique perform better in the scheme with a reference man .

Without understanding the criteria, Gabi maintains her dedication to the basic level of professionalism in training, as it is not part of the coach's or the club's plans for a possible renewal. With the chances of a comeback practically buried, the two possible paths are to wait for the election in Flamengo to find out if Tite will remain with the next president; or wait for the end of the contract to freely listen to proposals again. Palmeiras and Santos have not yet given up on the idea, and Bahia appears as an option, as it has good investment capacity.

De La Cruz is in the final stages of recovery from an injury to his right thigh and is already getting closer to a return to the pitch. On the afternoon of this Monday, September 16th, coach Tite had the Uruguayan player present in training on the field, indicating that he is getting closer to being ready to play.

This return of De La Cruz comes at an important time, especially with proximityof the game against a great opponent at Maracanã, scheduled for next Thursday, September 19th. The presence of the Uruguayan midfielder is seen as a possible important addition to the team, as he is a fundamental piece in the tactical scheme and contributes greatly to the team's offensive performance.


THE CLUB THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE 

De La Cruz's injury had been a point of concern for both the player and the coaching staff. The thigh is a vulnerable region for high-performance athletes, and injuries to this area can result in long recovery periods. However, the fact that he is already participating in activities on the field suggests that his recovery process was effective, and the medical team's planning has worked as expected.

This type of muscle injury requires specific care, and the return to training generally occurs gradually. De La Cruz's presence in training does not necessarily mean that he will play the full match on Thursday, but it is a strong indication that he could at least be available for a few minutes on the field, depending on how he feels in the next few weeks. days. This will be decided after evaluation by the technical and medical committee, which will analyze his performance in the remaining training sessions before the clash.


De La Cruz's return would also be a relief for Tite, who seeks to maintain the Flamengocompetitive in all competitions in that the team is involved. The coach has been facing a difficult sequence of games, with the team having to deal with absences
