In the victory of Flamengoabout Bahia, Matheus Bachi, Tite's technical assistant, highlighted the resumption of the style of play that the team had been trying to consolidate since the arrival of the new technical committee. In a direct and blunt speech, Bachi highlighted the return of a more aggressive and intense posture, both with and without the ball.
"This is the face of our team", stated Bachi, reinforcing that the performance seen on the field reflects the identity that the team seeks to consolidate. Flamengo, under Tite's command, had been wavering in some matches, but against Bahia, the team presented a standard of play more in line with what the coaching staff expects. This "face" mentioned by Bachi is linked to an imposing stance, of making the opponent suffer to keep up with the Flamengo rhythm.
FLAMENGO RECOVERS ITS DNA
< The technical assistant highlighted that, when the team is in possession of the ball, the objective is to make the opponent chase and wear themselves out in an attempt to regain possession. "Whoever comes here has to suffer chasing us," said Bachi, making it clear that Flamengo's intention is to dominate the game, maintain possession, and dictate the pace of the match. This control with the ball is one of the pillars of the style of play that the team is looking to improve under the new management.
However, Bachi also stressed that when the Flamengois without the ball, the behavior must be equally intense and aggressive. "When we don't have the ball, we attack the guys," he commented. This reflects the idea of high marking, putting pressure on the opponent in their defense, with the aim of recovering the ball as quickly as possible and maintaining control of the actions.
This approach is common in teams who seek modern and offensive football. The idea is that, even without possession, the team maintains a proactive stance, suffocating the opponent and reducing their space to create plays. This aggressive marking is not just a matter of physical effort, but also of tactical organization, something that Tite and his coaching staff are trying to implement at Flamengo.

Flamengo has formalized a proposal for goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão , Santos' standout player in 2025. According to information from UOL, Rubro-Negro offered seven million euros (around R$45 million) for 60% of the player's economic rights.
Despite the high price, Santos rejected the offer. The São Paulo club believes Brazão should only leave if a minimum offer of €15 million (approximately R$94 million) is met, a sum considered fair by the board to open negotiations.
According to Gazeta do Urubu , the Rio de Janeiro club has not yet made an official offer to the player. Sources within the board revealed that the player is being monitored, but there have been no official talks with the goalkeeper yet.
Gabriel Brazão is in great form and has become one of the most highly valued goalkeepers in Brazilian football. In addition to Flamengo 's interest, European clubs are also monitoring the situation. Torino, from Italy, even submitted a R$64 million offer , which Santos also rejected.
Other giants like Chelsea, Galatasaray, and Porto are closely monitoring the player's progress , as he has played 33 matches this season. Santos' board, which recently loaned João Paulo to Bahia, is working to keep Brazão at least until the end of the year.
The red-black board continues negotiations for Valentín Castellanos, but the Lazio striker was sent off in a friendly after a brawl.

Even after a successful transfer window, Flamengo remains attentive to the transfer market to further strengthen its squad . The main target at this time is Argentine striker Valentín Castellanos , a player who has expressed interest in joining Flamengo but faces resistance from Lazio, who are not making his exit easy.
Last Saturday (16), Lazio played a friendly against Atromitos, from Greece, winning 2-0. However, the match was marked by a general confusion that resulted in the expulsion of Castellanos . The Mengão striker disagreed with defender Mansur , exchanged aggressions and ended up receiving a red card.
According to journalist Fabrício Lopes, the fight didn't end on the field. In the locker room, the situation escalated, and the police had to intervene to calm things down . Italian press sources indicate that Castellanos is experiencing emotional instability, driven by frustration at not being released by Lazio to play in Brazilian football.
In the market, the Rubro-Negro are looking for a number 9 with different characteristics than Pedro , prioritizing a more mobile and versatile player in attack. Names like Taremi, Beltrán, and Castellanos were only monitored by the Rio team.
