Zenit (RUS) is one of the clubs that has appeared most in the red and black news due to the negotiation of Flamengo with Claudinho. However, despite the midfielder's release being far away, the clubs have come closer in the youth categories. This last Friday (9), representatives of the Russian team were at CT Ninho do Urubu to exchange experiences.

According to information from influencer Guilherme "Flazoeiro", directors from the Zenit base presented, among other points, how the Russian team's "player academy" works. That is, details of the St. Petersburg club department. Furthermore, the directors of Mais Querido from the lower categories also explained the day-to-day operations at Ninho do Urubu.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TEAMS IN THE PROFESSIONAL

While the directors understand each other in the base, the professional is already different. This is because the Russian club continues to make it difficult to release midfielder Claudinho. Remembering that Rubro-Negro sent a proposal of 18 million euros (R$ 109 million), Zenit even signaled positively, but later backed down, irritating Mais Querido's board. To make matters worse, President Rodolfo Landim made a statement that did not go down well in Russia.


"We do not hide the fact that we have been communicating with Claudinho for a long time, he is a kind of object of desire for us He is an idol there; he was considered the best player in Russia for several years. I think he can't play in the European championship again. he's unhappy. Deep down, we believe in common sense, even though we're Russians", Landim told 'Charla Podcast'.

MEANWHILE...

While the boards continue to try to get along get it right, the red and black squad focuses on the sequence of games of the week. Thus, Mais Querido finalizes preparation for the clash against Palmeiras this Saturday (10). The game will be valid for the Brasileirão, this Sunday (11), at 4pm, at Maracanã.

The Flamengo , historically recognized for its strong player training base, has faced a frequent reality in football: the departure of young athletes to rival clubs. The club's youth categories, widely contested and with a constant renewal of talent, mean that not all players are able to pursue a career at Rubro-Negro. This generates significant turnover, with some players transferring to other teams in search of more opportunities.

One of the most recent cases of this movement is that of Levy Benjamin, an athlete who was part of the U13 from Flamengo, but who, around five weeks ago, was announced as a reinforcement for Botafogo. The young player is a promise of Rio football and plays in two positions: attacking midfielder and left-back. The athlete's versatility caught the attention of Alvinegro, who integrated him into their base squad.


THE CLUB HAS NEW DIRECTIONS

This scenario, however, , is not an exception. In total, six players who were in the youth categories of Flamengorecently migrated to Botafogo. The list includes athletes of different age groups and positions. João Gabriel, U-11 right-back, Lorran Egon, U-12 defender, Pietro França, U-12 attacking midfielder, Gustavo, U-13 defender, Levy Benjamin, left-back and U-12 attacking midfielder Sub-13, and Miguel Ramiro, attacker of the Sub-13, are the names that left Flamengo and are now part of Botafogo.

The departure of these young athletes raises a warning for the Flamengo, mainly in relation to competition in the development of Rio football promises. Botafogo, like other clubs in Rio de Janeiro, has invested in attracting talent that, for some reason, does not stick to the red and black base. This phenomenon is common, especially in clubs that have a large number of athletes at the base, which makes it difficult to retain all players who have potential.
