The main focus will be replacing Gabigol, but due to cash constraints – Flamengo should start the year with just over R$ 3 million available –, spot negotiations are ruled out. The club will look for options such as installment payments, loans or free players on the market.
REINFORCED CAST, BUT OUTPUTS CAN GENERATE ADJUSTMENTS
Despite the priority being the attack, the board assesses that the signings of Carlos Alcaraz, Gonzalo Plata, Michael and Alex Sandro in 2024 have already strengthened the squad for 2025. However, possible departures may require replacements in other positions.
Players like Wesley, Fabrício Bruno, Allan < /b>and Lorran are among those most speculated to leave the club, due to interest from foreign clubs. The board seeks to maintain the main parts, but also foresees adjustments to achieve financial balance.
Wesley: A highlight of the season, the right-back was the target of proposals in 2024 that reached 20 million euros. With its evolution, there is an expectation of even greater offers.
Fabrício Bruno: In the sights of Rennes (France), the defender is rated at around 15 million euros.
Lorran: Target of European giants such as Manchester United and Chelsea, the young man is seen as potential for a big sale.
Allan: With few opportunities at the club, he was considered at Pumas (Mexico).
PROFIT GOAL: R$ 191 MILLION IN SALES
O Flamengo plans to raise R$ 191 million (30 million euros) with the sale of players in 2025. If negotiations for athletes like Wesley and Fabrício Bruno materialize, the goal will be achieved more easily.
ELECTION INFLUENCES DECISIONS
All planning is conditioned on the result of the club's presidential election, scheduled for December 9th. The budget and strategies were prepared by the current administration, led by Rodrigo Dunshee, but the project will also be presented to opposition candidates, Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap< /b>) and Maurício Gomes de Mattos (MGM), if one of them wins the election.
With a robust squad and the expectation of specific adjustments, Flamengo seeks to balance its technical strength with financial responsibility to maintain competitiveness in 2025.

The defense poorly cleared the ball, and Duda Serrana fired a precise shot from outside the box, leaving Flamengo's goalkeeper with no chance . From then on, the Rio de Janeiro team pushed forward and sought to press in the final minutes, relying primarily on set pieces and crosses, but failed to create any real chances.
With this result, Flamengo ends its Women's Copa do Brasil campaign with one win and one loss. The team received approximately R$90,000 for its participation in the round of 16. After the final whistle, members of the Flamengo coaching staff complained about the refereeing in the center of the field, but the result remained unchanged.

After the match, the full-back revealed a conversation with coach Filipe Luís, who advised him on attacking positioning: "I received criticism when I played injured because I couldn't give my best. But I wanted to stay on the field to help Flamengo . Filipe explained to me what he wanted from me: to get to the far post. I even asked my teammates to watch me during that movement," Royal said.
It was the full-back's first game since returning from injury. Royal had sprained his left ankle on August 13 against Internacional in the Copa Libertadores. Since then, he had only played a few minutes in the draw with Grêmio at Maracanã.
According to the player, Filipe Luís asked him to play differently than he was used to in his career: "At Tottenham, I played as a defensive midfielder, on the inside. But Filipe wants me to be sharp, exploiting my physical strength, passing, and crossing. He knows my ability to support, and that can really help the team ."
Signed in July for €9 million (approximately R$58 million) from Milan, Emerson Royal is competing for a spot with Varela, who was rested against Juventude due to a groin injury. " Big teams are like that; they always have top-notch players . Varela has a lot of quality, and so do I. The competition is healthy, we work hard, and the choice is Filipe's," said the full-back.
On Thursday (18), Flamengo faces Estudiantes in the Libertadores (quarter-finals, first leg), at 9:30 pm, at Maracanã . The Most Beloved only returns to the field for the Brasileirão on Sunday (21), against Vasco, also at the sacred temple.
