Flamengo fans can expect great things from this squad
|
0In the recent match against Grêmio, Flamengo once again showed its strength and unity on the field, but it was behind the scenes that a new leadership stood out. Coach Tite, alongside players Gerson and Fabrício Bruno, played a fundamental role in motivating the team before the clash. The watchword was “opportunities”, a theme that resonated strongly among the players.
Gerson, who has been consolidating himself as a central figure at Flamengo, assumed a prominent role in the dressing room. His ability to inspire his teammates and his striking presence became evident when, alongside Tite and Fabrício Bruno, he encouraged the squad to seize the opportunities that the game would offer. The message was clear: each player had the chance to show his value and contribute to the team's success.
GERSON REVENGE HIMSELF IN THE HANDS OF A QUALIFIED COACH
Gerson's stance, by reinforcing this message, showed his growth as a leader within the group. Known for his technical ability and vision of the game, Gerson now also stands out for his ability to mobilize and unite the team. His speech in the locker room, full of determination and confidence, reflected a player who understands the importance of each match and the need to give his all to the team.

0FIFA will announce the venues for the 2025 Super Club World Cup this Saturday (28). The announcement will be made during the Global Citizen Festival. The event will be held in Central Park, New York. FIFA did not detail how many cities and stadiums will host the 2025 edition. This will be the first time that the tournament will feature 32 teams.
The Super World Cup will be held between June 15 and July 13, 2025 The competition already has 30 qualified teams, with three Brazilians among them: Palmeiras, Flamengo and Fluminense. Brazil may have one more representative. This is because Atlético-MG and Botafogo are fighting for the last South American place in the competition — the Libertadores title gives them the place. Peñarol [if they win the Libertadores] and Olímpia [if River wins the Libertadores] are the other teams in the running.
The places are divided into: 12 for Europe, six for South America, four for Asia, Africa and North, Central America and the Caribbean, one for Oceania and one for the host country.
In addition to the remaining MLS spot, which has not yet defined its representative, the other available entry belongs to South America. It is destined for the champion of the edition of 2024 of the Libertadores. If River Plate wins the title, it will be transferred to the Conmebol ranking in FIFA and would already have an owner: Olímpia-PAR.

At 27 years old, Gerson already has a significant trajectory at Flamengo and in international football
|
0 The player, who also had a pass for the Brazilian National Team, worked with experienced coaches and played alongside athletes with a leadership profile. This background prepared him to take on the role of Flamengo captain, a role he has played with a remarkable positive attitude.
Gerson has always shown humility when asking questions and learning from those around him. This willingness to develop is one of the reasons he is well prepared to lead the team. Diego, one of the club's veterans, highlighted Gerson's constant attitude, regardless of the circumstances. "He doesn't get excited about very positive moments and doesn't despair about difficult moments," said Diego. This ability to remain calm and confident, whether in crisis or victory, is what makes Gerson a true leader.
A LEADER ON AND OFF THE FIELD
Responsibility from the captain's belt seems to have gone down well in Gerson, which has been showing constant evolution in the performance of this function. His emotional balance and positive attitude are qualities that inspire his teammates and ensure that he is a secure support point for the team.
Gerson began his career at Fluminense, where he quickly stood out. His skill and vision of the game caught the attention of European clubs, and he ended up moving to Roma, in Italy. Although his time in European football was marked by ups and downs, Gerson learned valuable lessons that helped him grow as a player and as a person.
