Flamengo, under Tite's command, will face considerable challenges in their next match, as they will not be able to count on key players in their squad. Gabigol, a prominent figure in the attack, is out of the game due to a red card received in the last classic against Fluminense. Furthermore, the experienced David Luiz is unavailable due to an injury, worsening the coach's concerns.

The list of absences doesn't stop there. Allan, a midfielder in the process of recovering from an injury to his left foot, offers uncertainty regarding his participation in the clash. However, there is a glimmer of optimism, as the player has already resumed training on the field, including ball activities. His presence on the field will depend on the positive evolution of his physical condition in the days leading up to the game.

In addition, the call-up of some talents from the squad to defend their national teams adds an additional layer of complexity to the situation. Arrascaeta, Pulgar and Varela were called up to represent their countries, but the expectation is that they will be available to Tite. The Uruguayans, for example, will face Bolivia in a crucial clash on Tuesday (21), at 8:30 pm, in Montevideo. Likewise, Chilean Pulgar will have a challenging commitment against Ecuador, on the same day and time, in Quito.


The logistics of these players' return after international commitments is an unknown that adds an extra dose of unpredictability to Flamengo's lineup. Tite will have to carefully manage the recovery and re-adaptation time of his athletes, ensuring they are physically fit and mentally prepared for the imminent challenge. The absence of Gabigol, one of the team's most prolific scorers, places an additional burden on the shoulders of the others. offensive players.


Tite will need to explore tactical options and strategies to compensate for the gap left by the attacker. The team's cohesion and ability to adapt will be crucial to overcoming adversity and ensuring a solid performance on the field. On the other hand, the possible availability of Allan, Arrascaeta, Pulgar and Varela offers a glimmer of hope for the coach and the fans. The presence of these players, if confirmed, would reinforce the squad and provide valuable strategic options for Tite to shape his formation.
