In an interview with singer Mano Brown, Diego recalled with the musician a call he received from the rapper to return to Vila Belmiro.
“There was a situation with Santos, which is very good. At times I had contact with Santos. They've already tried to get me to return. I spoke to some presidents, they tried to make some conditions, it was difficult, because of the club I was at (Flamengo) and everything, but I ignored it and moved on. But there was one time when you called and told me: ‘Come home, Diego’. At that time I was at Flamengo”, Diego Ribas told Brown.
Diego Ribas told Mano Brown that his call was the only one that made him rethink leaving Flamengo between 2016 and 2022.
“After our conversation ended, I said: 'Bruna (wife) is next, what now? Bro Brown told me to go to Santos’. Like, the president's wasn't heavy, with all due respect. But man, now Mano said that I have to go to Santos, so I was thinking. It was the moment that I most reflected on my return to Santos”, he pointed out.
“But I came to the conclusion that I was at a moment in my life, professional and personal, which is at Flamengo. I had all my dreams, my goals. I was doing well at Flamengo, I said: ‘I’m going to the end here’. I decided not to reopen this book because the story had already been told. I didn’t go back, but I remember that this call made a difference”, he concluded.
Two-time Brazilian champion with Santos, Diego also won two Brazilian titles with Flamengo, in addition to two Libertadores, one Copa do Brasil, three Cariocas, one Recopa and two Super Cups.

With 9 goals in 30 games in the 2023 season, the player won three titles in Mengão's youth categories: the Campeonato Brasileiro and the Copa do Brasil under-17, both in 2021, and the Brasileirão Under-20 in 2023.

Diego Ribas, former captain of Flamengo, praised midfielder Gerson, highlighting his qualities as leader of the Rio team. In a recent post on Instagram, the former player highlighted the reasons why he believes Gerson is the ideal candidate for the captain's armband.
Diego Ribas began his message by highlighting the experience accumulated by Gerson. "Firstly, experience. Gerson, aged 27, has already experienced a lot at Flamengo and abroad, including the Brazilian national team. He has worked with experienced coaches and players with a leadership profile. He has always shown humility to learn and develop, which prepares him well for this moment as captain", said Ribas.
Another point highlighted by Ribas was Gerson’s attitude. "What catches my attention about Gerson is his attitude. Regardless of the circumstances, he maintains a positive attitude. He doesn't despair about good times or difficult times. I remember 2020, when we were in a complicated situation. We held meetings and I asked him to speak. He never omitted and always took responsibility, saying that it was our responsibility to improve. This conveyed a great conviction", he reported.
In addition to personal praise, Ribas also highlighted Gerson's role under coach Tite. The midfielder was captain on 30 occasions during the "Tite Era" and was a starter in the last 18 matches for Flamengo. "The feeling is that you can always count on Gerson. And a leader is someone you trust, regardless of the circumstances. He is doing very well, and the captain's belt is doing him good. The tendency is for him to continue improving", concluded Diego Ribas.
