On the morning of this past Saturday (20), the cast of Flamengo has completed preparations for the clash against Palmeiras. While the athletes were carrying out their activities, a very special visitor was watching them: the idol Adílio. The former player was liked by the current players on the squad and even by Tite.
On their social networks, Flamengo announced the former player's trip to Ninho do Urubu: “Illustrious presence at CT. We love you, Adílio.” In the images that were shared, the idol of Rubro-Negro appeared posing alongside Lorran, Cleiton and Victor Hugo, as well as César Sampaio. Finally, the former midfielder was even caught chatting with Tite.
ADÍLIO'S PASSAGE AT FLAMENGO
Adílio was part of one of the greatest generations in Flamengo's history. With Zico and company, the former player had a direct role in winning Mais Querido titles. Among the most important are four Brazilians (1980, 1982, 1983 and 1987), one Libertadores (1981) and one World Cup (1981).
FLAMENGO FOCUS ON BRASILEIRÃO
Despite the Championship Brazilian being in the first rounds, Flamengo is already the leader. After beating São Paulo, last Wednesday (17), Rubro-Negro took the lead in the competition, due to having a greater goal difference. Palmeiras is in 11th place in the table, after losing to Internacional.
Thus, Flamengo and Palmeiras face each other with different objectives. Mais Querido will try to remain at the top of the leaderboard and the alviverde team will try to climb some positions. Thus, the teams will face each other next Sunday (21st), at 4pm, at Allianz Parque.
Mais Querido is looking for a new goalkeeper to compete with Rossi and the former Corinthians goalkeeper could be an option for the Rio de Janeiro team's board.

Palmeiras has made progress in talks to sign Carlos Miguel, currently on his way out of Nottingham Forest, but the deal may take longer than expected. The reason is that the leaked negotiations changed the course of the latest negotiations , causing discomfort between the parties.
The situation is gaining momentum with the possibility of other clubs entering the competition. According to information from GoalBR, Flamengo and Bahia are evaluating the signing . In the case of the Rio de Janeiro club, the board has already expressed interest and is analyzing the feasibility of submitting a formal offer.
Standing at 6'4" and a standout performer in his respective competitions, former Corinthians player Carlos Miguel has become one of the most sought-after targets on the market . His profile appeals to clubs looking to bolster their defense with security and experience.
Enjoying a strong run in the Brasileirão and advancing in the Libertadores, Flamengo is already making moves behind the scenes to strengthen its squad. The board has prioritized the arrival of a new goalkeeper , especially given the confirmed departure of Matheus Cunha. The goalkeeper signed a pre-contract with Cruzeiro and will leave the club free of charge at the end of the season.
Despite their confidence in Rossi, Flamengo's board knows they need at least one more high-level goalkeeper on the roster. This time, the team wants to tap the transfer market to replace the Argentine , who has made some mistakes in recent games.
The defender continues to improve physically and should return to the field against Internacional in the Brasileirão, after a six-match absence.

Since the victory over Fluminense on July 20, Flamengo's defense has faced a challenge in the absence of Danilo. The defender has missed six consecutive games, including the Copa do Brasil round of 16, but is showing significant progress in his recovery and is expected to return to training with the squad later this week.
Despite the progress, his participation against Internacional, this Wednesday (13), at Maracanã, for the Libertadores , is ruled out. The technical committee opts for caution, aiming to avoid the risk of new injury.
The internal expectation is that Danilo will be available for the match against Colorado, valid for the Brazilian Championship, next Sunday (17), at 6:30 pm, at Beira-Rio. If the return is confirmed, the defender's presence will bring more stability to the defensive system and allow strategic rest for Léo Ortiz and Léo Pereira, who have been playing without rest since his injury.
Without Danilo, the central defender duo has started all six recent games , amassing 540 minutes of unsubstituted play. Their teammate's return is seen as crucial to relieving the strain and offering coach Filipe Luís new options.
During the period without the defender, Flamengo faced crucial challenges. In addition to the Copa do Brasil match against Atlético-MG, which ended in elimination, the team played four Brasileirão matches, winning three and drawing one.
The sole decision of the continental tournament takes place on November 29, in Peru, repeating the stage of the 2019 final won by Flamengo over River Plate.
