Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (1), in a match valid for the 11th round of the Brasileirão, against Fortaleza. For the match, Mais Querido will have an important return: Matías Viña , left back who recovered from a serious injury and will return to the field after 10 months.
According to information from journalist Venê Casagrande, Matías Viña will be included by Flamengo for this Sunday's match (1) against Fortaleza, at Maracanã. It is worth remembering that the Uruguayan has not played since August 2024, when he was injured against Palmeiras.
It is worth remembering that Viña has not played for Flamengo since August 2024. At the time, the left-back suffered a serious injury to his right knee, tearing the anterior cruciate ligament. In addition, the player also injured his meniscus and suffered a fracture in his tibia.
Due to the severity of his injuries, Viña underwent surgery and Flamengo's medical department had set a deadline of 10 to 12 months for the Uruguayan to return to the field. Thus, the player will be able to return to action after more than 300 days of injury treatment.
With Matías Viña available, Flamengo 's squad now focuses on the match against Fortaleza in the Brasileirão. The Mais Querido is looking for a win to regain the lead in the competition before the break for the Super Club World Cup.
The midfielder has been in negotiations with Mengão since February to reinforce the team for the Club World Cup and should join the group in June

Flamengo 's delegation will travel to the United States shortly after the end of the FIFA World Cup , on June 10, with a view to competing in the FIFA Club World Cup . Until then, the club hopes to officially sign midfielder Jorginho, who is very close to being announced as a reinforcement for the red-black team.
After leaving Arsenal , the 33-year-old midfielder is expected to sign a three-year contract with Flamengo, with a link valid until mid-2028. The deal still depends on small details, but the club is already organizing to include the player in the trip scheduled for June 11 .
Despite the doubts raised in recent days about the possibility of Jorginho playing in the World Cup, journalist Venê Casagrade indicates that there will be no impediments. According to the reporter, the midfielder gave up a bonus worth 800 thousand euros to stay until the end of his contract with Arsenal until the end of June and has already said goodbye to the English club. To play for Flamengo in the tournament, he will only need to agree to terminate his contract - a step considered to be completed.
The Mais Querido will make its debut in the Club World Cup on June 16, in the United States, against Espérance de Tunis . The intercontinental tournament will start two days earlier, on the 14th. Mengão will also face Chelsea and LAFC in the group stage.
With the arrival of Jorginho, Filipe Luís will gain another quality option for the sector. The defensive midfielder will compete for position with Erick Pulgar , Evertton Araújo , Allan , De La Cruz and Gerson , who has also been used as a second midfielder.
While the final stages of the agreement are being finalized, Jorginho is enjoying a few days of rest with his family. The player is also preparing to marry Irish singer Catherine Harding next week, followed by a short honeymoon. After the wedding, the midfielder will report to Flamengo to make his arrival official and begin preparations for the World Cup.
