João Félix's name continues to circulate in the corridors of Ninho do Urubu. The attacking midfielder, who is currently on loan at Milan, is considered the main reinforcement desired by the red-black board for the next window . The idea is to reinforce the midfield and give more breathing room to Arrascaeta, with whom he would share functions.
Flamengo has already contacted Félix's representatives. However, there has been no response from the team so far. Without this initial response, the club has not yet moved forward with negotiations with Chelsea, which owns the player's economic rights until 2031. According to journalist Venê Casagrande, from SBT Rio, football director José Boto is still waiting for a position from the player or his agents. Only after this will Flamengo decide whether to open talks directly with the English club.
The lack of response, for now, has not completely discouraged the directors. There is an understanding that the process involves several layers, and that Félix also needs to understand his future after the end of his loan with Milan — which expires at the end of the European season. João Félix and coach Sérgio Conceição, with whom he had a turbulent relationship, will not continue at the Italian club. The tendency is for the Portuguese to return to Chelsea, which has not yet defined its plans for the player from the middle of the year.
Despite Flamengo 's clear interest, the deal is being handled with caution internally. The main obstacle is "salary". Félix's current salary is out of line with the reality of Brazilian football and, to play in Brazil, he would have to accept a significant reduction. This point is seen as crucial for any progress in the talks. The board understands that the club's sporting project and competitive environment may be important, but without any indication from the player on the salary issue, any negotiations are likely to be stalled from the start.
Today, the Portuguese player has a market in Europe and, although he is not at his peak technical level, he still attracts interest from medium and large clubs on the continent. This factor also plays into the equation for the red-and-black team, which is not willing to enter an auction for any player, even though he is a priority. Internally, João Félix is seen as a player capable of further improving the team led by Filipe. The coach values players with good passing skills, tactical reading and decision-making ability in the final third. These are characteristics that the Portuguese player has - even if his recent trajectory has been inconsistent.

Flamengo idol Adriano Imperador stated in an interview that he played more than some of the biggest names in world football. With a career marked by talent, physical strength, and humility , "Didico" continues to be fondly remembered by Flamengo fans.
During an appearance on the show Boteco do Chula, Adriano was asked if he had performed at a higher level than stars like Ronaldo, Romário, Ibrahimovic, Mbappé, Lewandowski, and Gabigol . The former player candidly stated that he considers himself superior to some of them.
In the Emperor's opinion, Kyllian Mbappé, Robert Lewandowski, and Gabigol are behind him . However, according to Adriano himself, Romário, Ibrahimovic , and Ronaldo Fenômeno are in a higher tier.
Adriano's most significant connection with the club came in the 2009 Brazilian Championship . During that campaign, the striker played in 30 of the 38 rounds, scoring 19 goals and contributing four assists. With him on the field, the team recorded 15 wins, seven draws, and eight losses. This victory was decisive not only for the club's recent history, but also for the Emperor's career.
Adriano recalls that title as the greatest moment of his career on the field. In a recent interview with GE, he highlighted the team's unity as a determining factor in winning the trophy: " Theoretically, I was down there, the team wasn't doing well. An unforgettable title for me. The group was very good. We really came together, and that made it possible for us to be champions, for sure ."
