Flamengo is preparing to compete in the U20 Intercontinental Cup, Category World Cup. For the decisive game this Saturday (24) at 16:00 (Brasília time) at Maracanã, against Olympiacos, from Greece, coach Filipe Luís defined the list of participants for the match at Maracanã.
SEE LIST
Goalkeepers: Dyogo Alves, Lucas Furtado and Caio Barone;
Defenders: Iago, Carbone, Da Mata and João Victor;
Right sides: Daniel Sales, Gusttavo and Lucyan;
Left sides: Zé Welinton;
Midfielders: João Alves, Jean Carlos, Rayan Lucas, Caio Garcia and Lorran;< /p>
Forwards: Adriel, Matheus Gonçalves, Shola, Wallace Yan, Victor Silva and Felipe Teresa.
Lorran, Shola and Matheus Gonçalves are already integrated into the professional squad, but as they are still old enough to play in the under-20s, they will reinforce the red and black team that will face the current UEFA Youth League champion this Saturday. Lorran's participation, however, is still uncertain. The player, who recently had his contract renewed, will be involved in the clash with Bolívar in the Libertadores and will go to Bolivia, which will reduce his rest and training time with the rest of the group led by Filipe Luís.
< It is not the first time that Matheus and Lorran have returned to the under-20s this season. Matheus Gonçalves has already played in three Brasileirão matches and scored three goals. After being featured in the Libertadores U20 title, Lorran had a meteoric rise during the Copa América period, where the main players were defending their teams. However, his production fell in the main team and, to take him out of the spotlight, the red-and-black preferred that the player return to the category below to maintain the pace of the game. Recently promoted, Nigerian Shola has not yet had an opportunity among the professionals.
Flamengo and Olympiacos will be broadcast on FlaTV+ and SporTV. For subscribers of the Globoplay service, both exhibitions will be available via streaming. There are still tickets for this Saturday's match, but a good crowd is expected at Maracanã.

Flamengo officially announced on Wednesday night (02) the dismissal of coach Cleber dos Santos, who until then was in charge of the under-20 team. Even after winning the Libertadores in the category last month, the coach was dismissed from the club, making room for the arrival of Portuguese Nuno Campos.
The decision was communicated through an official note : “Coach Cleber dos Santos is no longer part of the technical committee of Flamengo's youth teams. The club thanks him for his services and wishes him success in the continuation of his career” , informed the Rubro-Negro's communications department.
CLEBER DOS SANTOS WAS IMPORTANT BEFORE LEAVING THE CLUB
In addition to the continental title, Cleber played a relevant role in the 2025 season by leading Mais Querido's alternative team during the first rounds of the Campeonato Carioca. Under his command, the team scored crucial points to win the Taça Guanabara. “We would have liked to have had better results, but it was a valuable experience for the players and contributed to their development,” said the coach.
To replace Cleber dos Santos, Flamengo opted to hire Portuguese coach Nuno Campos , a 49-year-old who previously worked for Toluca in Mexico. He takes charge of the under-20 category with the mission of maintaining the team's high competitive level.
The new commander is not arriving alone. Along with him, Gonçalo Cruz was announced as assistant coach. On Tuesday (25), Nuno Campos already led his first activity at CT Ninho do Urubu, starting work for the 'Clássico dos Milhões' this Friday (28).
WHO IS NUNO CAMPOS
Nuno Campos has experience in European football, working as an assistant coach at several clubs on the continent. With a modern style of play and backed by his relationship with José Boto, Flamengo 's football director, he has carte blanche to implement his methodology at the club's youth academy.
