Flamengo takes to the field this Thursday (15), in a game against LDU. However, already thinking about the next round of the Brasileirão, the CBF defined that the referee who will whistle the classic against Botafogo, on Sunday (18) will be Bruno Arleu de Araújo , a judge who has already participated in controversy with Rubro-Negro.
This Wednesday (14), the CBF defined that Bruno Arleu de Araújo, a 42-year-old referee and member of the FIFA team, will referee the classic between Flamengo x Botafogo, next Sunday (18), at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã.
It is worth remembering that Bruno Arleu refereed the classic between Flamengo x Fluminense in the final of the Campeonato Carioca this year , being criticized by both fans.
The main complaint from the red-and-black fans regarding the referee in the match against Fluminense came after a tackle by midfielder Otávio on De La Cruz. Even though the number 18 was hit above the line of his boot, Bruno Arleu only showed a yellow card.
Furthermore, at the end of the match, Flamengo opened the scoring with Plata, but the VAR recommended a review of the play and the referee decided to cancel the play, pointing out a foul by Juninho on Ignacio. However, experts pointed out that the attacker's movement was not a foul.
Bruno Arleu also refereed Botafogo's 4-1 win over Flamengo in the 2024 Brasileirão. Since then, the professional has not worked on the team's games in the Brasileirão, returning to meet Rubro-Negro this Sunday (18).
Before that, Flamengo will focus its attention on the Libertadores. The Mais Querido will face LDU this Thursday (15), in a game valid for the fifth round of the group stage of the competition, where it needs to win to qualify for the round of 16.
Mengão is looking for a new player for the position due to the departure of Matheus Cunha at the end of the current season and the tricolor goalkeeper is on the radar.

Flamengo is already planning reinforcements for the 2026 season and has Gabriel Grando, 25, on its list of potential signings . According to the newspaper O Dia, the Flamengo board is closely monitoring the situation of the Grêmio goalkeeper, who came through the Grêmio youth academy and stands at 1.92m tall. The athlete recently rejected a contract renewal offer in Porto Alegre.
The move comes amid the planned departure of Matheus Cunha , Agustín Rossi's current backup, who is expected to sign a pre-contract with Cruzeiro . With no room at Gávea, the goalkeeper will leave the club in 2026, prompting the board to plan a replacement.
Negotiations between Gabriel Grando and Grêmio are ongoing, but have yet to be finalized. Flamengo is monitoring developments and may formalize an offer soon. The goalkeeper nearly signed with Palmeiras this season, but the clubs failed to reach an agreement . He currently has a contract with Grêmio until December 2026.
According to journalist Fabrício Lopes, director José Boto held initial talks and presented a salary offer, which the player has already accepted . In addition to Flamengo , Botafogo has also expressed interest in signing the goalkeeper.
While the board continues to search for a new goalkeeper, Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (20) for the second game of the round of 16 of the Libertadores against Internacional , at Beira-Rio. The match is scheduled for 9:30 pm (Brasília time) and will be broadcast by Rede Globo (open TV), ESPN (closed TV) and Disney+.
