Flamengo drew 1-1 with Grêmio last Sunday (31), in a match valid for the 22nd round of the Brasileirão. With the Maracanã packed, the duel kept Rubro-Negro at the top of the competition . After the game, the squad received four days off .
This Tuesday (02), the players arrive at the second consecutive day of rest, since on Monday (01) the FIFA Data period began, which paralyzes the national calendar during the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers . According to the official schedule, the team returns to activities on Friday (05), at Ninho do Urubu , where coach Filipe Luís resumes the team's preparation for the rest of the season.
Despite the draw, Flamengo remains the undisputed leader of the Brazilian Championship, with 47 points . Palmeiras, which was in second place, dropped to third place after tying with Corinthians and remaining at 43 points. Cruzeiro thus moved into second place with 44 points.

Atlético-MG has opened negotiations to bring back Jorge Sampaoli , formerly of Flamengo, as the team's head coach. The Argentine coach gained traction at the club after failing in negotiations with Martín Anselmi and is already considered the favorite to take over.
The first negotiations, which began on Monday night (01), are being conducted virtually. Sampaoli currently lives in Rio de Janeiro. The information was published by the newspaper O Tempo. On social media, part of the Galo fans are already mobilizing in support of the coach's return .
Without a club since leaving Rennes in France, Sampaoli has had a low-key run in European football. In charge of the French team, he played 10 games, winning just 3 and losing 7 , in a period of about two months.
His first stint at Atlético-MG was between 2020 and 2021, with 45 matches, totaling 25 wins, 9 draws, and 10 losses . Despite finishing three points short of the Brazilian title, the Argentine is remembered as a key player in the formation of the squad that would win historic titles in 2021, as he indicated the signing of most of the players.
Sampaoli arrives to replace Cuca, who was fired after the 2-0 loss to Cruzeiro in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals at Arena MRV. Pressure had already been mounting, and the setback against their biggest rival was a key factor in the coach's departure.
In 2023, Sampaoli also managed Flamengo , accumulating 39 games, with 20 wins. Despite this, he left the club with criticism , after eliminations in the Libertadores, defeat in the Copa do Brasil final and performance below expectations in the Brasileirão.
The direct confrontation for the leadership of the Brasileirão between Mengão and Raposa takes place in October, at Maracanã, and fans can already guarantee tickets

Flamengo and Estudiantes (ARG) will face each other on September 18th and 25th in search of a spot in the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores da América . Most experts consider Flamengo to be the favorite, but according to former defender Leandro Desábato, who won the competition in 2009 with the Argentine club, the first leg at the Maracanã will be decisive.
Debate about Flamengo vs Estudiantes, in the Libertadores: "If you get a good result in Brazil, you'll have a chance"
"Flamengo has a very good team. I thought Estudiantes would decide it away, but it will be at home. If they get a good result in Brazil, they'll have a chance. When you put pressure on the fans and make the opponent feel it, they don't like it . Estudiantes has good players who have dropped off in performance, but they remain important," said Desábato.
The former defender also highlighted the strength of the Argentine fans as a decisive factor: "Estudiantes is highly respected, a role model. Players who play there always say it's a different club, and that helps a lot. The fans transmit this energy, and in the Libertadores, it's even more felt . They make you believe you're going to win, even without having the best team," he added in an interview with Cielosports.
Estudiantes secured home advantage after finishing first in Group A , the same as Botafogo, with 12 points. Flamengo , in turn, advanced with 11 points in Group C. In the round of 16, the team from La Plata eliminated Cerro Porteño (PAR), winning 1-0 away and drawing 0-0 at home.
The winner of the match will face the qualifier from Racing (ARG) vs Vélez Sarsfield (ARG) in the semi-finals .
