The Club World Cup is an old dream for red and black fans, especially for the generations that did not have the opportunity to watch Zico lift the cup in 1981, after the historic victory over Liverpool. This desire is also shared by defender Léo Pereira, who recently completed 200 games with Manto Sagrado and outlined his next goals at the club.

GOAL IS THE MUNDIAL

In an interview with the program Resenha do Jogo, broadcast on Fla TV, Léo Pereira highlighted that he has already won all possible titles in South America, including the Copa Sudamericana won by Athletico before upon arrival at CRF. Now, his focus is on the world title, but he emphasizes that the first step is to guarantee the victory of the Libertadores 2024.

"In South America, I've already reached zero. I've already won everything. The next objective is the World Cup We have to win this year's Libertadores anyway. Thinking about being world champion. Flamengo offers us all the tools to prepare and do our best on the field. highlighted the defender.


In addition to the traditional Club World Cup, which takes place after the continental tournaments, Léo Pereira also has in mind the Super World Cup, which will be held from 2025, every four years, and for which Mengão is already classified. The new format promises to be an extra challenge for the teams, but the defender shows confidence in aiming for international achievements.


NEXT CHALLENGE: CLASSIC AGAINST VASCO< /b>

With Léo Pereira at his disposal, Mengão now focuses on his next commitment. The classic against Vasco, valid for the 26th round of the Brazilian Championship, will be played on Sunday (15), at 6:30 pm, at Maracanã. CRF seeks to maintain the good moment and guarantee another victory in front of their fans.
