Flamengo, one of the most popular and successful clubs in Brazil, is currently focused on ensuring the continuity of talented midfielder Everton Ribeiro. According to UOL Esporte, the Rio club's board of directors aims to extend the player's contract for another year, which demonstrates the value he represents to the team. One of the reasons for the decision to extend Everton Ribeiro's contract is the close relationship he developed with coach Tite. Tite, a renowned Brazilian coach, has expressed on several occasions his appreciation for the player's performance and his ability to stand out in decisive moments. This was evidenced when Tite called him up to be part of the Brazilian team that will compete in the World Cup in Qatar, one of the most important tournaments in world football.
The inclusion of Everton Ribeiro in the Brazilian team is a clear recognition of his talent and skills as a football player. His versatility on the pitch, combined with his ability to create opportunities and score goals, has made him an invaluable asset for Flamengo and the national team alike.
However, Flamengo's board understands that the decision to extend Everton Ribeiro's contract must be taken together with Tite, considering the impact this could have on the Brazilian team. Therefore, they plan to discuss this issue with the coach and assess how it can positively affect both the player and the national team.
The relationship between Everton Ribeiro and Flamengo is a success story. Since arriving at the club, he has won several major titles and has become a leader on and off the field. His performance has been fundamental to Flamengo's success in national and international competitions.
By extending Everton Ribeiro's contract, Flamengo seeks to maintain stability and talent in its squad, which is essential to continue competing at a high level on all fronts. The presence of a player of Everton Ribeiro's quality is a guarantee that the club will continue to fight for titles and delight the fans. The affection and support of Flamengo fans for Everton Ribeiro is evident in every match in which he plays . His dribbling ability, precise passing and vision of the game captivate not only Flamengo fans, but also football lovers across Brazil.
However, it is important to remember that the final decision to extend the Everton Ribeiro's contract will depend on a series of factors, including negotiations with the player and his agent. Furthermore, discussions with Tite will play a crucial role in this process. Flamengo is aware of the importance of maintaining an open and transparent dialogue with all parties involved to ensure the best possible result for the club, the player and the Brazilian national team.
Ultimately, the possible extension of the Everton Ribeiro's contract is a decision that will have a significant impact on the Brazilian football scene. Flamengo's ability to keep a player of his quality and importance demonstrates the club's commitment to remaining a powerhouse in national and international football. With Everton Ribeiro on the field, the prospects for Flamengo and the Brazilian team certainly remain promising.

São Paulo will have an important absence in the match against Flamengo this Saturday (13), at Maracanã, at 4:30 pm. Although he was expected to return to the team , Lucas Moura will remain out of action. According to the club, the attacking midfielder is still under physical preparation care, despite being clinically recovered from a knee injury.
Lucas Moura hasn't played an official match since May 6th . Although his knee problem has been overcome, the medical department and coaching staff understand that he still needs more time to regain physical conditioning before returning to action. Therefore, his return to action for the São Paulo team will remain postponed.
In addition to the absence of the number 7, São Paulo will be without Lucas Ferreira (with hip pain), Luciano, Luiz Gustavo, and Calleri, all ruled out by the medical department. The match will also mark Hernán Crespo's return to the team , precisely against the league leaders, in the return of the competition after the Club World Cup.
The São Paulo team's likely starting lineup features significant changes. Crespo is expected to field Rafael; Arboleda, Alan Franco, and Sabino (or Ferraresi); Cédric, Alisson, Bobadilla, Marcos Antônio, and Enzo Díaz; Oscar (or Juan Dinenno), and André Silva. Among the confirmed returns to the squad are Marcos Antônio, Ferreirinha, and Oscar, who have been sidelined since early June.
The match between São Paulo and Flamengo will be held at Maracanã Stadium at 4:30 p.m. this Saturday, part of the 13th round of the Brasileirão. For the Rio de Janeiro club, the match represents a chance to maintain its lead in the standings. Broadcasts will be available on free-to-air channels and streaming platforms.
Even without a guaranteed presence in the starting 11, Gabriel has been praised by the board for his commitment and commercial impact.

Signed with star status, Gabigol is still seeking regular starting positions at Cruzeiro. Unlike what he became accustomed to during his years as a star player at Flamengo, the striker is currently in a transitional phase. Even though he's not a regular in the starting eleven, he's been touted as an important player in Leonardo Jardim's project.
Pedro Junio, vice president of the Minas Gerais club, emphasized in an interview with the program Donos da Bola that the number 9 did not disappoint. According to the director, the striker has fulfilled everything agreed upon at the time of his signing, both on the field and in marketing. " He delivers everything we agreed on, both in the sporting and commercial and marketing aspects . Gabriel was a package deal we signed, and he delivers," he noted.
Since arriving at Toca da Raposa, Gabigol has started 11 matches, initially under Fernando Diniz and later under Leonardo Jardim. Following the 1-1 draw with São Paulo on April 13th, in the third round of the Brasileirão , the striker has lost his place in the starting lineup. Even so, management emphasizes that there is no dissatisfaction or bad blood behind the scenes.
" Cruzeiro's advantage is that everyone understands that Cruzeiro is the top priority. Regardless of who's playing or not," explained Pedro Junio, highlighting the positive internal atmosphere at the club and the players' maturity in accepting coaching decisions.
Despite recurring speculation that he's unhappy about not being a regular starter, Gabigol has publicly expressed his composure about this new phase. After the 2-0 victory over Vila Nova on May 1st in the Copa do Brasil , the striker addressed the issue directly.
" I'm very calm about it. I know the pressure there is , and there are a lot of people who say things without realizing it. I try to work hard, show my football skills on the field," he said. On that occasion, the striker also highlighted the welcome he received at the club and reinforced his desire to continue contributing.

Flamengo returns to the national stage this Saturday (12), after a stint at the Club World Cup, with full focus on the Brazilian Championship. The team led by Filipe Luís leads the table with 24 points, despite having played one game less, maintaining the best attack and the tightest defense in the competition so far. The ball rolls at 4:30 pm, at Maracanã, with broadcast on TV Globo and Premiere.
Flamengo will be without midfielder Erick Pulgar, who suffered a fractured right foot, and Pedro, who was sidelined by Filipe Luís . This will also be the first match without Gerson, who recently left the club to Zenit in Russia.
On the other side, São Paulo is undergoing a period of restructuring. After a 3-1 loss to Vasco and the departure of Luis Zubeldía , the club has decided to bring back Hernán Crespo as coach. The São Paulo team will have important reinforcements who recovered during the break: Lucas Moura, Oscar, Marcos Antônio, and Ferreirinha are available again.
The red-and-black fans promise to once again fill the stadium. As of last Thursday (10), more than 46 thousand tickets had already been sold. With the removal of free tickets, the expectation is that around 60 thousand fans will attend Maracanã to support Mengão in its search for three more points.
