According to information from journalist @simpraisa, from GOAL Brasil, Jorge Jesus showed great enthusiasm for Michael during internal conversations. Jesus highlighted that he deeply admires the striker and made it clear that he intends to coach Michael again at some point in his career. Jesus' admiration for the player is not new, having been a recurring theme during the period in which the coach was at Flamengo and Michael played for the club.
Currently, Michael is leaving Al- Hilal, a Saudi club with which he has a contract until January 2025. However, there are rumors that the player is expected to terminate his contract before its scheduled end. Michael has been at Al-Hilal for two and a half years and, despite still being linked to the club, the decision to terminate his contract was made in agreement with the Saudi team's management. This early termination opens space for new negotiations and possible team changes for the striker.
Flamengo, under the current management, It could be an interesting destination for Michael, especially with the possibility of reuniting with Flamengo. The Rio team is one of those that would benefit most from signing the striker, given the positive relationship between him and the Portuguese coach. Jorge Jesus knows Michael's qualities well and could be a decisive factor in negotiating the player's return to the red-and-black club.
The possibility of seeing Michael again at Flamengo is a subject that generates expectation among fans. Furthermore, Michael's return to Flamengo can be seen as a strategy to reinforce the squad, especially at a time when the team is looking to maintain or improve its performance in competitions. The return of players who have already had success at the club can be an effective way of achieving these goals.

During an Al Hilal training session, Jorge Jesus stole the show by participating in a lively game with one of his players. The former Flamengo coach showed his talent by playing catch-up with Arab player Yasser Al-Shahrani. In a relaxed moment, Jesus compared his control of the ball to that of Neymar Jr., a player from Al Hilal, although the comment was not understood in Portuguese by the player.
With his impressive control of the ball, Jorge Jesus he juggled and commented: “It looks like Neymar”, while executing the embaixadinhas. All around, players watched the coach's performance with interest.

He suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, a similar injury to Pedro's in the Flamengo, who should only return to the field in 2025. Neymar is still in a long recovery process and should return to the field in next month.

At Al Hilal, JJ recently reached the same milestone at the Arab club.
