Flamengo will be forced to make more changes to the starting lineup in the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship, against Athletico-PR, this Sunday. But, in addition to the new absences, the field spoke louder to coach Tite. With Luiz Araújo in a good phase, Gerson's position had to change, even if against the boss's wishes.
What happened?
The will was not change Gerson's position. After the midfielder returned from kidney surgery, Tite found him a kind of right midfielder, resuming the starting position he had before the problem. The team evolved with this new idea and started an important sequence of six victories.
Tite gave up the scheme with two wingers and Pedro. The center forward was joined by Everton Cebolinha in the attack and saw Gerson floating a lot in the middle and on the right side.
Against Athletico, the field will speak louder. Without Igor Jesus and Cebolinha, new injured players on the list of 10 absences, Gerson will be relegated to the position of the young baseman, while Luiz Araújo will form the offensive trio with Pedro and Bruno Henrique.
"Yes, because the field speaks. More than the coach's will", said Tite
Luiz Araújo is an important player at Fla. He is the athlete most used by Tite in the squad and has only been left out of one match in the 43 games under the coach's command so far. The number 7 is seen as fundamental. The player is even considered one of the "starters" by the committee, even though he is currently a reserve. He started 22 of the 42 games he played for Flamengo.
The striker is the player who scored the most goals off the bench. He has 11 direct participation in goals, with seven balls in the net and four assists.
"Luiz is an athlete that we also have as one of the starters. It's a shame that we can only enter with 11. The safest of everything is that we have given the same content to everyone. It's our safety. When the athletes enter, they are already in the movement routine", César Sampaio, Tite's assistant.
Luiz Araújo will have the chance as a starter later. of about a month and a half. The last time was in the defeat to Botafogo, when he spent 66 minutes on the field. Flamengo takes the field at 4pm (Brasília time), at the Ligga Arena.

Cazé TV, run by Casimiro Miguel, recently made moves in the market to recruit new talent to strengthen its broadcast team. One of the targets was former striker Paulo Nunes, who came through Flamengo's ranks and is currently a commentator for Globo . However, the former player ultimately declined the offer, according to columnist Flávio Ricco.
In addition to Paulo Nunes, Cazé TV also approached Grupo Globo professionals, such as narrator Gustavo Villani and journalist Vinícius Rodrigues , who also declined the offer. These moves come amid the launch of GE TV, Globo's new platform that emerges as a direct competitor to Casimiro's digital project.
The former striker was also in Band's sights, as reported by journalist Gabriel Vaquer. The São Paulo broadcaster even considered Paulo Nunes as a replacement for Denílson , who left the channel to sign with Globo earlier this year. However, Globo itself did not authorize the commentator's departure, and he remains on its staff.
A Cazé TV dream, Paulo Nunes built a successful career on the field . Playing for Flamengo , he won important titles, such as the Copinha, the Campeonato Carioca, the Copa do Brasil, and the Campeonato Brasileiro.
At Grêmio, he experienced perhaps the most remarkable phase of his career, winning the Libertadores, Recopa Sudamericana, Brasileirão, Copa do Brasil, and Campeonato Gaúcho , becoming a club idol. He then also shone at Palmeiras, winning another Libertadores, as well as the Copa do Brasil and Copa Mercosul. Towards the end of his career, he played for Corinthians, where he won the São Paulo State Championship, but never returned to Flamengo.
Dissatisfied with the distribution of revenue from the Brasileirão, president Bap seeks adjustments to the Libra criteria, faces resistance from clubs and sees possibilities

Flamengo is at an impasse with the Brazilian Football League (Libra). President Luiz Eduardo Baptista , known as Bap, is contesting the contract signed by Rodolfo Landim's previous administration and seeking more favorable terms for the club. Without the support of the other members of the bloc, the possibility of appealing to the courts is beginning to be considered behind the scenes.
According to the "Máquina do Esporte" website, Libra leaders are growing concerned that the dispute will progress to court , jeopardizing plans to unify the groups discussing the creation of a single national soccer league. The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which would seek to bring the Libra and LFU blocs closer together, has not yet progressed.
The broadcast contract signed by Landim with Globo, valid until 2029, is seen by Bap as a source of significant losses . The new management estimates that the current conditions could represent losses of close to R$100 million per season compared to the amounts received until 2024.
The current model provides for an equal distribution of 40%, 30% based on sporting performance, and 30% based on viewership. It is precisely this last criterion that the club is questioning. The club is attempting to recoup approximately R$23 million under the contract to balance the books.
According to Flamengo , in the pay-per-view split, both teams receive identical shares, even when there is a significant disparity in fan base, such as in a match against Red Bull Bragantino. The club advocates that fan numbers be considered when determining the revenue share.
The team led by Sergio Hernández lost to San Pablo Burgos in the first test, but continues preparations to face San Sebastian and compete in the World Cup.
