Flamengo is about to start a new chapter with a coach. Tite will be the 10th to take command of the red-black men's football team in less than four years. During the entire term of club president Rodolfo Landim (2019 - until now), only one coach was able to remain in office for more than a year. Can Tite do it too?
Jorge Jesus holds the record for time coaching Flamengo during the Landim season. Mister took over the team in June 2019 and had one of the best seasons in Mengão's history. He remained with the job until July of the following year (2020), when he decided, of his own free will, to leave the club and return to Europe, for family reasons.
It should be mentioned that the previous coach to Jesus was Abel Braga, who also resigned and, besides them, Dorival Júnior was the only other professional who was not removed from the club by the red-black board itself. In the case of the Brazilian, his contract was just not renewed.
Apart from these three situations, the other 6 coaches were fired, either for poor performance or for any other reasons. Remember how long each coach spent working at Mais Querido in these last four seasons:
1st - Abel Braga - January 2019 to May 2019 (4 months)
2nd - Jorge Jesus - June 2019 to July 2020 (1 year and 1 month)
3rd - Domènec Torrent - July 2020 to November 2020 (4 months)
4th - Rogério Ceni - November 2020 to July 2021 (8 months)
5th - Renato Gaúcho - July 2021 to November 2021 (4 months)
6th - Paulo Sousa - January 2022 to June 2022 (5 months)
7th - Dorival Júnior - June 2022 to November 2022 (5 months)
8th - Vítor Pereira - January 2023 to April 2023 (3 months)
9th - Jorge Sampaoli - April 2023 to September 2023 (5 months)
< However, it was a period of many trophies, even if they were all concentrated in the hands of 3 names: Jorge Jesus, Rogério Ceni and Dorival Júnior. In total, the three coaches have won two Copa Libertadores (2019 and 2022), two Brazilian Championships (2019 and 2020), two Brazilian Super Cups (2020 and 2021), two Guanabara Cups (2020 and 2021), one Recopa Sudamericana ( 2020), two Carioca Championships (2020 and 2021) and one Brazilian Cup (2022).
It is interesting to remember that Tite may even be joining Flamengo in the next few days, but he will only spend a short time under the command of Rodolfo Landim. The president's term ends at the beginning of 2024 and he does not intend to seek re-election.

Flamengo and Internacional face each other this Wednesday (13), at Maracanã, for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Conmebol Libertadores. The return duel is scheduled for August 20, at Beira-Rio. Abel Braga, former coach with spells at both clubs, assessed that both teams arrive at the clash experiencing periods of instability .
Abel Braga on Flamengo and Internacional: "neither is at its best"
"It's an extremely close game. Flamengo hasn't been able to maintain a winning streak of four, five, or six wins . They're also coming off an elimination. Inter, which wasn't doing well, managed three or four 1-0 wins and made a significant leap forward. It has all the makings of a great game, but the truth is that neither team is at their best," Abel analyzed in an interview with GE.
The coach also highlighted the strengths of each team: "I hope it's a great game. Both Flamengo and Inter have the squads to put on a great show. Flamengo, with their usual high-pressing . Inter, with their surprising passing from one side to the other, especially with Wesley. It's hard to imagine Flamengo man-marking Alan Patrick," he concluded.
Under Filipe Luís, Flamengo was eliminated from the Copa do Brasil, but remains the undisputed leader of the Brasileirão, despite having played a game less . In its last ten games, the team has six wins, one draw, and three losses. Internacional, meanwhile, has won four, drawn two, and lost four in the same period. The pressure on coach Roger Machado is mounting at the Rio Grande do Sul club.
The clash between Flamengo and Internacional takes place this Wednesday (13), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã , for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. The decisive duel will be on August 20, at Beira-Rio. The match will be broadcast by Globo, ESPN and Disney+.

Zico previews the duel: "In recent years, Flamengo and Internacional have played great matches"
"It's a remarkable game, it's a shame that a Brazilian team has to say goodbye to the competition. In recent years, Flamengo and Internacional have played great matches, and , fortunately for us, most of the victories have been ours ," Zico said in an interview with Rádio Gaúcha.
The Flamengo idol also highlighted the evenly matched performance and both teams' positive home records: "Playing at Maracanã, Flamengo always comes in as a slight favorite, but not overly so . In knockout matches, just like in the South, Inter also has its strengths. If you look at the teams' home records, their success rates are always very high," concluded the Galinho de Quintino.
This season, Flamengo has been consistent at Maracanã. Under Filipe Luís, the team has played 23 matches at the stadium, winning 16 , drawing three, and losing only four. In the Brasileirão, Mengão has conceded just two goals at home.

Striker Vitinho, recently signed by Corinthians , was officially presented at the São Paulo club this Tuesday. The former Flamengo player highlighted the warm welcome he received from Hugo Souza, Gustavo Henrique and Matheuzinho , players who played alongside him at Rubro-Negro.
"Matheuzinho (full-back) kept asking me if I was coming and I couldn't talk. He was a bit anxious, he wanted me to come and be here with him. They welcomed me with open arms, and that makes things much easier. I had this moment of welcoming them to the base. And now it's the other way around. Gustavo Henrique (defender) is someone with whom I have a very good relationship. It's good to be here with them," said Vitinho.
Despite his expected debut, Vitinho still doesn't have a confirmed date for his appearance for Corinthians . The striker emphasized that he needs time to adapt and be fully prepared physically.
