The Flamengo Sickle cell traits are a genetic condition related to sickle cell anemia, which affects the shape of red blood cells. At high altitudes, where oxygen is thinner, people with this condition can experience serious complications, such as bouts of intense pain, organ damage and, in extreme cases, life-threatening conditions. Due to these risks, it is prudent that Allan does not participate in games in places like La Paz, which have these characteristics.


FLAMENGO HAS A HEADACHE

The decision not to take Allan to Bolivia was taken jointly by Flamengo's medical team and the technical committee, aiming to preserve the player's health. In the Libertadores group stage, Allan also did not travel to Bolivia, remaining in Rio de Janeiro. Now, in the knockout stage, the situation repeats itself, leaving the Flamengo without one of its main midfielders for a decisive clash.

Allan's absence represents a significant absence for Flamengo, who will have to adapt without the player in a crucial match. The midfielder has been a prominent figure in protecting the defense and in the transition between defense and attack. His ability to read the game and interrupt opposing attacks has been fundamental to the team's balance in various competitions.

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.
