Center forward Pedro is back at the center of discussions in Brazilian football . Amid speculation about his dissatisfaction with his playing time at Flamengo, journalist Luiz Carlos Reche suggested a bold proposal: a swap between the red-and-black striker and three Internacional players — Enner Valencia, Rafael Borré and Ricardo Mathias.
Luiz Carlos Reche on Internacional's trio: "I would offer the three to Flamengo in exchange for Pedro"
The suggestion was made live during the Gre-Nal Radio program, last Thursday (3), when Reche responded to a message from a Colorado fan who complained about the current offensive options of the team from Rio Grande do Sul. For the journalist, adding the performance of the three Inter attackers, Flamengo would still come out on top if they agreed to trade Pedro .
“A Colorado listener complained and said that neither Ricardo Mathias, nor Borré, nor Enner Valencia are good enough, and that the team has to hire players. For me, adding the three together, there is only one that I would replace in the same circumstances as today . I would offer all three to Flamengo in exchange for Pedro,” said Reche.
Internacional currently has Rafael Borré and Enner Valencia alternating in the starting line-up, but both have been performing poorly in 2024. Young Ricardo Mathias, in turn, stood out with a decisive goal against Nacional, in Uruguay, for the Libertadores, but suffered a muscle injury that kept him off the pitch.
Since arriving at Flamengo , Pedro has established himself as one of the most effective strikers in Brazilian football. In the last three years, with more than 150 matches for the club, the number 9 has scored around 70 goals and provided approximately 20 assists . More than just the numbers, the center forward stands out for his ability to decide important games, such as the finals of national tournaments and the Libertadores.
Recognized for his precision in finishing, presence in the area and versatility in attack, Pedro is a reference in the red-black squad. In addition to acting as a goalscorer, he also participates in the offensive construction , being praised for his game reading and pivot function.

Still unsure whether they will have Lucas Paquetá until the end of the season , West Ham won their first victory in the Premier League this Sunday (31) . In the third round of the competition, the team beat Nottingham Forest away from home 3-0, in a match marked by efficiency in the final minutes.
Despite the heavy score, West Ham struggled again. Controlled by Nottingham Forest for much of the match, the London team benefited from their rival's inability to finish plays . When they had the opportunity, they were decisive.
All three goals came in the final six minutes. Bowen opened the scoring, and the home side completely lost their way. Lucas Paquetá then doubled the lead with a penalty , and Callum Wilson sealed the victory, securing the Hammers' first win of the season.
During the celebration, Paquetá made a gesture of connection with his hand and then feigned a refusal. He then kissed the West Ham crest. This gesture was interpreted as a response to rumors of a possible transfer to Aston Villa , a club that had expressed interest in the Brazilian.
Having nurtured the player in its youth academy, Flamengo is entitled to approximately 4% of the total value of each international transfer for Paquetá . Based on the £47 million offer, the Rio de Janeiro club stands to receive approximately £1.88 million (R$13.8 million) at the current exchange rate.

Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (31) to face Grêmio, in a match valid for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. The ball rolls at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, with broadcast by Rede Globo , on open TV, and Premiere, on pay-per-view.
In midfield, Jorginho 's condition is a concern. The defensive midfielder is experiencing muscle discomfort and did not participate in training with the group during the week . He continues to perform specific activities at Ninho do Urubu and will be re-evaluated this Saturday, in the final training session led by Filipe Luís before the match.
Since his Club World Cup debut, Jorginho has established himself as a key player in the red-and-black squad. If he isn't cleared by the medical department, Allan and Evertton Araújo are potential options, while De La Cruz is considered an outsider. Pulgar remains out of the plans due to surgery on his right foot.
With the confirmed absences and the doubt over Jorginho, coach Filipe Luís should send the following team to the field at Flamengo : Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz (Danilo), Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Allan (Jorginho), Saúl and Arrascaeta; Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
Rubro-Negro heads into the 22nd round as the sole leader of the Brasileirão, with 46 points, two ahead of second-place Cruzeiro, who still have a game in hand . After the match against Grêmio, the competition will be suspended for 13 days due to the FIFA International Day.
