The Flamengo, in In its ongoing search for reinforcements, it recently consulted on the situation of right-back Gonzalo Montiel. The Rio club, which has been monitoring the market in search of players that could add to the squad, contacted the player to evaluate the possibility of bringing him to Brazilian football. However, according to information gathered by close sources, including journalist Venê Casagrande, Montiel has not shown interest in playing in Brazil at this time.
Montiel, who currently plays for Sevilla, in Spain, was approached by the Flamengo with the aim of strengthening the right-back, a position that the club considers strategic for the season. Despite Flamengo's interest in having the player, Montiel's response was negative. The Argentine full-back, who has stood out in European football and also in the Argentine national team, preferred to remain on the European scene, where he sees more opportunities for professional growth and competitiveness.
FLAMENGO IS INTERESTED IN THE LATERAL
Montiel's decision reflects a common trend among South American players who, upon reaching a certain level of prominence in Europe, choose to extend their stay on the continent, where football is more developed and competitions are more targeted. For Flamengo, Montiel's refusal means that the club will need to explore other options in the market to fill the gap at right-back.
O Flamengo, in turn, continues to be active in the market, looking for alternatives that may fit the profile desired by the commission technique. The club, which already has a robust squad, aims to further strengthen the group to compete at a high level in national and international competitions. Montiel's refusal should not discourage the board, which has shown resilience and adaptability in its negotiations.
In addition to Montiel, Flamengo has been investigating other names on the market, both in Brazil and abroad. The expectation is that the club will be able to sign a new right-back in the coming weeks, aiming to continue the season. The board has worked carefully to ensure that the hiring is correct, both from a technical and financial point of view.
With all tickets sold, the quarterfinals are expected to surpass 69,447 fans and record the highest attendance in 2025.

Pedro faced behavioral issues under Filipe Luís at Flamengo and, at one point, was even left off the roster. However, the striker regained his place in the squad and was once again decisive. David Luiz came to the defense of the number 9, praising his teammate and responding to criticism .
David Luiz on the controversy between Pedro and Filipe Luís at Flamengo: "Nobody trains for a week and then starts scoring a goal"
"Pedro is an incredible player and a wonderful person. A friend, a brother. Often, in football and in life, people like to label others. They did that with Rodinei, treating him as a character and not as a player. With Pedro, they say he doesn't like training. But that's not the case . No one trains for a week and then scores goals. He was already dedicated beforehand," the defender said in an interview with LANCE!.
According to David Luiz, the relationship between Pedro and Filipe Luís improved after the incident became public . Since then, the striker has returned to Flamengo 's starting lineup and has been instrumental in scoring important goals.
" After this public issue with Filipe, face-to-face dialogue became easier . Pedro is pure, he speaks his mind, and this helps us understand how to support him. Suddenly, he's back to doing what he always did: scoring goals. He deserves it, because he works for it. If he didn't work, he wouldn't have the numbers he's putting up," he added.
Pedro trained normally during the week and is confirmed among Filipe Luís' options for the duel this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, against Estudiantes (ARG), for the first leg of the Libertadores quarterfinals.
According to the prediction of the psychic Luiz Filho, from the Renascer das Cartas channel, Rubro-Negro must demonstrate strength and composure to build a result in the duel
