In preparation for this weekend's clash against Flamengo , Juventude received good news. Coach Thiago Carpini will have striker Edison Negueba and midfielder Sforza, newly signed at the end of the transfer window, available for the first time . Alongside them, Lucas Fernandes returns after a period under medical care, expanding the coach's options to face Filipe Luís's Rubro-Negro.
While reinforcements are arriving, Juventude is also experiencing significant absences . Batalla and Giraldo are serving suspensions, while defender Abner is on the medical team. Luan Freitas is the favorite to fill the defensive spot.
Among those who remain out, the list includes five names: defenders Rodrigo Sam (thigh injury) and Natã (muscle injury), right-back Ewerthon (thigh problem) and forwards Galego (ankle) and Gilberto (thigh).
The newly arrived reinforcements give Juventude greater flexibility in midfield and attack. Sforza can play centrally to strengthen the marking and ball out , while Edison Negueba adds speed and depth on the wings. Lucas Fernandes emerges as an alternative to start or change the pace of play during the match.
With 14 wins, five draws, and just two losses in 21 matches , Flamengo leads Serie A with 47 points. Cruzeiro (44) and Palmeiras (43) are close behind. Juventude, in turn, occupies 18th place, with 21 points from 21 matches, six wins, three draws, and 12 losses.
The striker was traded to a Saudi Arabian club and, as they still hold 30% of the player's rights, Mengão will be entitled to a millionaire sum.

Flamengo will have a new financial return with the transfer of Lázaro, an attacking midfielder who came through the Flamengo youth academy . The player left Almería, in Spain, and was sold to Al-Najma, in Saudi Arabia, for 5 million euros (around R$ 32 million). The deal was confirmed this Wednesday (10).
In the 2022 sale, Flamengo had already earned €7 million (R$36 million at the time) and retained 30% of the economic rights . The contract also provided for the purchase of an additional 5% if Lázaro started 25 matches, which did not materialize.
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Almería retained 15% of the rights to a future resale. Flamengo, on the other hand, will receive €1.5 million (approximately R$9.5 million) for the resale clause in the negotiations with the Spanish club.
Furthermore, the Rio de Janeiro club will also benefit from FIFA's solidarity mechanism, which guarantees a percentage of its revenue to training teams. In total, the club's revenue will exceed R$10 million from the deal.
Revealed at Ninho do Urubu, Lázaro made his senior debut in 2020, in a 1-1 draw against Palmeiras in the Brasileirão. For Flamengo, he played 62 matches, scoring eight goals and providing eight assists. He even had a stint with the club in 2024.
For Flamengo, the striker also participated in successful campaigns, winning a Libertadores, a Copa do Brasil, a Brasileirão and a Campeonato Carioca before moving to European football, where he never managed to achieve the same brilliance.
The athlete is once again an option for Thiago Carpini after more than a month out and could play against Mais Querido this weekend.

In preparation for the match against Flamengo this weekend , Juventude received some good news. Midfielder Lucas Fernandes, sidelined since the end of July due to injury, has returned to training and is once again available to coach Thiago Carpini. He could be included in the squad for the match against "Mais Querido" in the Brazilian Championship.
Signed in early July, Lucas Fernandes played only once for Juventude : on the 27th of that month, in a 3-0 loss to Bahia in the Brasileirão. After that match, the midfielder felt muscle discomfort and was rested for the following game, against Santos. Tests revealed a grade 1 thigh injury, ruling him out of the matches against Corinthians, Vitória, Vasco, Botafogo, and Ceará.
Throughout the season, Thiago Carpini alternated his midfield formation, using more experienced players like Nenê to reinforce the midfield in matches against Vasco and Botafogo. Lucas Fernandes' return opens up the possibility of a new tactical variation. Even if he doesn't start, the former São Paulo player could be an important player in adding dynamism to the team during the match.
While Mengão leads Série A with 47 points from 21 matches (14 wins, five draws and two losses), Cruzeiro (44 points) and Palmeiras (43) follow. Juventude is in 18th place with 21 points and is looking for a comeback to leave the relegation zone. Flamengo trains on Friday (11) and Saturday (12), at 9:30 am, at Ninho do Urubu, and leaves for Caxias do Sul on Saturday afternoon.
The squad has activities scheduled for Friday (11) and Saturday (12), at 9:30 am , at Ninho do Urubu. Right after Saturday's training, the delegation will board at 2:30 pm (Brasília time) for Caxias do Sul, where they will face Juventude at the Alfredo Jaconi stadium.
