In recent days, a controversy involving Flamengo striker Gabigol and his advisory team has taken over sporting discussions. The trigger was the accusation made by André Rizek, a renowned sports journalist, who harshly criticized the stance of the player and his staff.
It all started when Gabigol missed a training session with Flamengo. Initially, the justification given by the player and his team was that he was dealing with personal problems. However, this explanation did not convince everyone, and the situation became more complicated when evidence emerged that Gabigol was in a clandestine casino in the South Zone of Rio de Janeiro the night before his absence.
THE DETONATED THE GABIGOL CASE ON SOCIAL MEDIA
On his program, Rizek did not mince words when addressing the incident. “The greatest asset anyone can have is credibility. And this credibility was thrown in the trash can by Gabigol and his staff. It is impossible to understand why they maintained a lie for so long,” declared the journalist. Rizek's speech resonated strongly with fans and sports media, raising questions about the honesty and responsibility of professional athletes.
Rizek's statement ignited a heated debate on social media. Fans and critics of Flamengo were divided between those who defended Gabigol, claiming that personal problems should be treated with more sensitivity, and those who supported Rizek, demanding transparency and professionalism from the player. The main issue revolved around trust and integrity, both of Gabigol and the institution he represents.

Flamengo received, this Friday (1st), another millionaire amount related to the sale of right-back Matheuzinho. Corinthians paid around R$ 14 million to Rubro-Negro , paying off the remaining amount of the negotiation made in February of this year.
At the time, the Rio de Janeiro club sold the player for R$21.48 million, but Corinthians delayed the third installment of the agreement. As a result, Flamengo demanded immediate payment of the entire outstanding amount . The information was initially reported by the portal Meu Timão.
To facilitate the payment, Corinthians signed an agreement with Brax, the company responsible for marketing advertising signs for both clubs. The company acted as guarantor for the deal and transferred the funds to Flamengo .
By August, Corinthians had already paid R$8 million directly to the Rio de Janeiro club. It then transferred R$7.58 million to Brax , which topped up the amount with another R$6 million , fully settling the debt with the club.
While the board celebrates receiving the amount, Flamengo remains focused on the field. The team led by Filipe Luís returns to play this Sunday (3), against Ceará, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. The match will be broadcast live on Premiere, on pay-per-view.

Flamengo has already made four signings official this transfer window , but the delay in negotiations has drawn criticism from some fans . During striker Samuel Lino's presentation, football director José Boto spoke out on the matter and apologized to the Flamengo Nation.
“Sometimes things take a little longer than the fans want, and I apologize to the fans, but we ( Flamengo 's board) have fixed ideas, and as long as it's possible to have the players we want , we'll go after it,” explained Boto.
Brazilian football's second transfer window opened on July 10th, and Flamengo began the period cautiously, monitoring the market and evaluating options. As the weeks progressed, the board accelerated negotiations and secured four key signings : Saúl Ñíguez, Emerson Royal, Samuel Lino, and Jorge Carrascal.
Despite the names already confirmed, Flamengo remains attentive to the market. The club is in ongoing negotiations with Fiorentina, Italy, to sign striker Lucas Beltrán . Flamengo has already agreed on a fee with the Italian club, but still needs to convince the Argentine player to return to South America.
While the board works behind the scenes, the squad led by Filipe Luís focuses on the challenges on the field. Flamengo's next match is this Sunday (3), against Ceará , at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brazilian Championship.
