The decision not to sell Wesley at this time also reflects a strategic stance by Flamengo's board of directors
|
0The board of directors of Flamengo is determined to hold Wesley longer. The club believes that the young player has the potential to be worth much more in the future and, therefore, has refused several proposals that have arrived recently. Wesley, who has stood out since the youth categories and in the opportunities he had in the main team, is seen by the board as an important piece for Flamengo's future.
The club is aware that the transfer market is dynamic and that a player's value can increase significantly over time, especially if he continues to perform well on the field. In recent months, Flamengo has received several proposals for the young player. The information was released by Mauro Cezar Pereira, journalist at UOL Esporte.
FLAMENGO SETS NEW OBJECTIVE
Despite the interest of other clubs, the red and black board has remained firm in the decision of not releasing Wesley at this time. The idea is that he continues to develop his skills and gain even more prominence, which could result in more advantageous financial offers in the future. Flamengo's strategy makes sense when looking at the recent history of players who left the club for abroad.
Young promises like Vinícius Júnior and Lucas Paquetá were sold for high prices after standing out in the first team. The board believes that Wesley can follow a similar path, which justifies the intention to keep him for longer.

Shirt 99 is 'living for today'
|
0One of the hopes of Flamengo fans in the game against Peñarol, a match that could qualify Rubro-Negro for the semi-final stage of the Libertadores, striker Gabigol is uncertain about his future. The 99 shirt has a contract until December, but he refused to offer for another year of Mais Querido. According to journalist André Hernan, from UOL, the player is 'living for today'.
“Gabigol, what I have information on, is that in his mind he still doesn't have a future. There isn't a club where he already has something lined up, there isn't a proposal like the one from Palmeiras, which Palmeiras withdrew because Gabigol wasn't willing to sign a pre-contract to stay at Flamengo until the end of the year. What is Gabigol's idea? Living today, Gabigol is living today intensely, he will do his best, he wants to play in the Libertadores, Brasileiro, Copa do Brasil, wherever he is selected, he wants to play”, said Hernan live.
Still according to the journalist, if Gabigol does not renew with Flamengo, he has one request: to have a big farewell. At Mais Querido since 2019, Gabi has four Cariocas, two Brazilian Super Cups, one Recopa Sul-Americana, one Copa do Brasil, two Brasileiros and two Libertadores.
“Ah, but if you don’t renew at the end of the year. Okay, he's going to follow his future and he wants a farewell worthy of the size he has at Flamengo, the size of the achievements he had at the club. So, this is Gabigol's thoughts today: live in the moment, tomorrow will be resolved later. What he wants is to leave Flamengo big, the size he built his career at Flamengo, the titles he won”, he concluded on the De Primeira program.
To stay at Flamengo, Gabigol wants five-year contractPreviously, in 2023, Gabigol and Flamengo agreed to renew the contract for five years. However, with the striker's drop in performance, Mengão went back and now only wants one more year of commitment. The obstacle is done.
The journalist also highlights that if it were another coach the position would have been in danger for longer

0Flamengo has not been able to present good football for some time and doubts about Tite's work have already begun to emerge. For journalist and commentator Gian Oddi, the criticism took a long time to appear, and there is an "unusual generosity" towards the commander.
For the commentator, if it were another coach in Tite's place, without making a star cast surrender, the position of coach would already be in danger and even vacant a long time ago. The journalist still uses Vanderlei Luxemburgo as a comparison to describe the situation.
“We are in the ninth month of this year, Tite started his work last year, and I keep imagining if Vanderlei Luxemburgo was the coach of Flamengo, how much he would get beaten. So I think there is a generosity with Tite that is absolutely unusual”, analyzed Gian Oddi.
Tite will complete one year leading Flamengo, but he continues to experience moments of uncertainty. Even though Rubro-Negro is alive in the three competitions it competes in, the coach is unable to extract better football from the squad, and even with the absences, Gian Oddi says that the coach has to show urgent service.
“ Enough, I'm not saying that Tite should be fired. But you need to look at Flamengo's squad, and I know that the discount has to exist, just look at who is outside Flamengo's team at the moment. But he has a lot of allowance to work with, and of course, he had a lot of problems, but Flamengo goes there and signs the full-back who played with the Juventus shirt for the last ten years. So, we're talking about guys at a very high level”, commented Oddi following criticism from the fans about the football presented.
Since Tite arrived at Mais Querido, in October 2023, he led Rubro-Negro in 67 games, with 40 wins, 12 draws and 15 defeats. In total, 106 goals were scored and 48 conceded.
