Scorer of the first goal for Flamengo in the match against Corinthians this Saturday (11), in the sixth round of the Brasileirão, Pedro entered the top-15 of scorers in the history of Mais Querido. Thus, with the goal against the São Paulo team, number 9 reached the mark of 123 goals with the Sacred Mantle, equaling Nonô, a center forward in the 1920s.
Pedro arrived at Flamengoin 202 and has played 242 matches, with an average of more than one goal every two games. Furthermore, the number 9 is an absolute starter in Tite's team with Gabigol as his reserve.
In the current squad (and in the 21st century) Pedro is second only to Gabigol in terms of goals. That's because Gávea's number 10 scored 155 times and is the sixth highest scorer in Flamengo's history.
HOW MANY GOALS LEFT TO ENTER THE TOP-10?Now, Pedro will have have to score 25 more times to be able to enter the Top-10 greatest scorers in the history of Flamengo. He has already scored on 16 occasions this season and is Brazil's top scorer in 2024. Furthermore, the center forward was Carioca's top scorer and scored the historic 13,000th goal for Mais Querido.
FOCUS ON NEXT CONFRONTATIONIn the match against Corinthians, Pedro left feeling pain in his adductor and knee and Gabigol had to take his place in the second half. Therefore, the number 9 will be re-evaluated at Ninho do Urubu this Monday (13) to see if he can play against Bolívar.
Flamengo returns to the field this coming Wednesday (15), in match against Bolívar, at Maracanã, in the fifth round of the Libertadores, at 9:30 pm. Mais Querido needs victory to dream of qualifying.

Flamengo is keeping an eye on Colombian striker Juan José Rosa, 17, from Atlético Nacional-COL, aiming to reinforce its youth teams. The information was released by the profile Olheiro Sudaca, specialized in young South American talents.
Juan José Rosa caught the attention of Mengão during the Flamengo Adidas Cup tournament, held earlier this year, at Ninho do Urubu. The Rio club became champions of the competition, while the Colombian was awarded as the best striker of the tournament. Rosa stands out for his good physical fitness and tactical versatility, being able to play both as a winger and as a false 9.
The signing of Juan José Rosa aims to strengthen Flamengo's under-17 category, now under the responsibility of Eduardo Zuma, after Filipe Luís joined the team.
The profile analyst FlamengoBase, Wendson Ferreira, expressed enthusiasm with Flamengo's interest in Juan José Rosa: "Juan José Rosa is an interesting winger, with good technical ability, one-on-one ability and physical strength. He is a promising player", highlighted Ferreira in his social networks.
In addition to the interest in Juan José Rosa, Flamengo reinforced its youth categories with the signing of 19-year-old defender Wesley Juan. The player, who was at Acadêmico Viseu, in Portugal, signed a contract with the Rio club for a year and a half. Wesley Juan arrives to join the under-20 team, which is guided by Filipe Luís.

Flamengo thrashed Vasco da Gama last Sunday (02). At Maracanã, Mais Querido beat their Rio rival 6-1, in a game in the seventh round of the Brazilian Championship. Scorer of one of Fla's goals in the classic, Pedro is behind Lionel Messi and Miguel Borja in the ranking of America's top scorers in 2024.
First of all, Messi (Inter Miami-USA) and Borja (River Plate-ARG) have 25 goals scored in the 2024 season. Pedro, on the other hand, reached 24 goals scored by Flamengo in the year. As a result, the red-and-black number 9 is America's second top scorer so far.
Closing the 'top-5', that is, after Messi, Borja and Pedro, are Adrian Martinez, with 24 goals scored in 2024 and Rondon, who scored 22. In short, with 24 goals, shirt 9 is Flamengo's isolated top scorer in the current season.
Pedro's next opportunity to take the lead in the ranking will be on June 13th, when Flamengo faces Grêmio. On that occasion, the teams will compete in the eighth round of the Brazilian Championship, at Maracanã, starting at 8pm (Brasília time).
However, before that, Pedro has three days to enjoy some time off. This is because Flamengo's squad will only perform again at Ninho do Urubu on Thursday (06). Until then, number 9 and the other red and black players have no commitments to the club.
