Lazio, in a last-minute attempt, sought to interfere in negotiations between Carlos Alcaraz and Flamengo. The Italian club tried to persuade the player to change his mind, offering an alternative for his career in Europe. However, Alcaraz remained firm in his decision, convinced that the Flamengo represented the best choice for the next step in his career.
According to information from Mauro Cezar, published in UOL Esporte, the Argentine midfielder was determined to wear the red-black shirt, despite the interest from Lazio. This conviction was decisive for Flamengo to remain confident in negotiations, even with the European onslaught. The choice of Alcaraz reinforces the appeal that Flamengo has in the South American market, being seen by many players as an ideal platform for development and international projection.
FLAMENGO WAS "STRONG" IN THE MARKETThe Rio club had made an initial offer to Southampton, where Alcaraz currently plays. This offer, however, was considered below expectations by the English, who made a counter-offer. Lazio, upon realizing the impasse, tried to take advantage of the situation, but Alcaraz's desire to play for Flamengo ended up weighing more.
Flamengo has shown itself to be an attractive force for young South American talent, offering not only visibility, but also the possibility of competing in high-level competitions and gaining value in the European market. For Alcaraz, Flamengo's sporting project, combined with the possibility of winning titles and standing out in one of the most popular clubs on the continent, were decisive factors in choosing him.

In the relationship between Gabigol and coach Tite at Flamengo, only the field is capable of speaking. Between the striker and coach, there is practically no dialogue, and the cold and silent war dictates that only one of them should remain at the club for the season in 2025.
No atmosphere with the coaching staff and also with the squad , Gabriel Barbosa has been convinced to change and airs, but even the clubs that expressed interest in the first half of the year backed away. With a contract at Flamengo until the end of December, Gabigol had offers from Palmeiras, Corinthians and Santos, was mentioned at Grêmio, but did not want to sign a pre-contract with any team.
The expectation was to try to turn things around on top in the second half, otherwise he would end his time at Flamengo like the idol he became, without any fuss.
Tite's arrival last year changed the entire perspective of the striker, who was already in a bad phase previously, and lost his place once and for all to Pedro with the presence of the new coach. With the center forward's recent injury, Tite kept Gabigol at the end of the line, under the argument that Carlinhos and Bruno Henrique perform better in the scheme with a reference man .
Without understanding the criteria, Gabi maintains her dedication to the basic level of professionalism in training, as it is not part of the coach's or the club's plans for a possible renewal. With the chances of a comeback practically buried, the two possible paths are to wait for the election in Flamengo to find out if Tite will remain with the next president; or wait for the end of the contract to freely listen to proposals again. Palmeiras and Santos have not yet given up on the idea, and Bahia appears as an option, as it has good investment capacity.
