The biggest idol in Flamengo's history, Zico made it clear that he will never ask for the club's legendary number 10 shirt to be retired. Although no player in the current squad is using the number, after Gabigol missed this chance, Galinho stated that he is against the idea of preserving the number forever as a form of tribute.
In an interview with the channel “Faaaala, Craque !”, on YouTube, the former player highlighted how satisfying it is for a professional athlete to wear a shirt with such a historic number. Faced with comments about the absence of a player wearing Mengão's number 10, Zico declared his opinion:
“He really doesn't have the number 10. But I will never ask to remove the number, I am against that. If you took Pelé away, for example, you wouldn't be able to play, have the satisfaction of playing. I'm not worried about that. Football is not basketball”, said Galinho.
In May, after a leaked photo in which Gabigol appears wearing the Corinthians shirt, Flamengo imposed a punishment on the attacker, which included a fine and the removal of the iconic number 10 shirt. See the statement issued by the club:
“The Clube de Regatas do Flamengo informs that, after a meeting with the vice-president of football, Marcos Braz, and other directors of the department, the athlete Gabriel Barbosa was fined and informed by the director that he will no longer wear the red-black number 10 shirt in competitions where the number may be changed. ”
Gabigol “inherited” the number after the retirement of Diego Ribas, at the end of 2022. The striker wore the legendary shirt in 72 matches, being a starter in 47 of them. During this period, he scored 22 goals, provided four assists and won the 2024 Campeonato Carioca. After the incident, Gabriel started to wear the number 99 shirt at Flamengo.

The coach even became a recurring theme in questions directed to candidates for the club's presidency. In interviews, the main candidates presented divergent opinions about Tite's continued leadership of the team.
Rodrigo Dunshee, a candidate supported by the situation, praised Tite, but stated that he has not yet made a definitive decision about the permanence of the team. coach if elected. Luiz Eduardo Baptista, BAP, highlighted that he will need time to evaluate the issue.
Wallim Vasconcellos, in turn, was the most direct in relation to Tite's situation, stating that, if elected, the contract of the coach will not be renewed. Maurício Gomes de Mattos adopted a more evasive stance, without committing himself. Finally, Delair Dumbrosck conditioned Tite's continuation on the results achieved by the end of the season.
Tite's contractTite's contract with Flamengo runs until December of this year, the which puts the decision on its renewal in the hands of the club's next president. The termination fine is calculated based on the technical committee's monthly salary, which is around R$1 million, multiplied by the number of months remaining in the contract. Therefore, if Tite were fired now, with three months left until the end of his contract, the fine would be approximately R$3 million. However, the current board does not plan to fire the coach before the end of the contract.
Recent statements from the main candidates about Tite:“Tite is an exceptional coach, he is our commander. I haven't had the opportunity to discuss the future with him yet, but I plan to do so soon. For now, I don’t have a definitive position on this matter.” (Interview with the Jannuzzi & Abuzze podcast).
Luiz Eduardo Baptista (BAP):“Given the circumstances that Flamengo faces, it would be deeply unfair to evaluate Tite's performance in a negative way . The club was in a much more complicated situation before his arrival, and he is still competing in three competitions. Responsibility for challenges does not rest exclusively with the technical committee. Let’s calmly evaluate what’s best for Flamengo.” (Interview with the Coluna do Fla podcast).
Wallim Vasconcellos:“Particularly, I don’t like Tite’s style of play. His contract ends at the end of the year and I don't intend to renew it. Football needs to move into the 21st century, and I don’t believe that Tite is aligned with what we imagine for Flamengo from 2025 onwards.” (Interview with Lance newspaper).
Maurício Gomes de Mattos (MGM):At campaign events, Maurício Gomes de Mattos is usually evasive about Tite's stay, stating that he intends to put together a professional structure to define the ideal coach for the beginning of his management in 2025.
Delair Dumbrosck:“Whether Tite will continue or not, the results will determine. He is an excellent coach, he has a great commission, but only the results will tell.” (Interview on YouTube by Coluna do Fla).

After his public statement, Flamengo's board of directors even investigated the situation of the player, who at the time was still linked to European football and had no intention of returning to Brazil.
