Of the four reinforcements hired by Flamengo in 2024, only one has managed to win the title so far: De la Cruz. However, another Uruguayan name begins to stand out and compete for space: Matías Viña. With a goal and an assist in a week, the left-back demonstrated efficiency when called upon, intensifying the competition for the position with Ayrton Lucas.
Viña was unfazed by criticism after a missed goal on his debut as starter, in the 1-1 draw against Millonarios, in Colombia. Against Bolívar, at the altitude of La Paz, the Uruguayan scored the goal that brought Flamengo back into the game after conceding a goal in the first minute.
In the classic against Botafogo, Ayrton Lucas was chosen as a starter, leaving Viña on the bench until the final minutes of the 2-0 defeat. However, in the 1-0 victory over Amazonas, at Maracanã, the Uruguayan was not only decisive with a perfect cross for Pedro's goal, but also stood out as the best on the field on a night where the performance of the rest of the team was questionable.
Matías Viña's upward trajectory at Flamengo has generated debates about the dispute for left-back, with many fans considering the Uruguayan as a valid option for the starting line-up. Meanwhile, Ayrton Lucas needs to maintain his level of performance to avoid losing his position to the emerging competitor. The performance of both players will continue to be closely watched as the season progresses and competitions intensify.

The 2024 season is being a milestone in Flamengo's history, not only due to its results in competitions, but also due to administrative and structural advances. One of the biggest dreams of red and black fans is getting closer to becoming reality: the construction of the club's own stadium. Flamengo made official the purchase of the Gasologista land, in the Port Zone of Rio de Janeiro, which will house the future home of Mais Querido.
The acquisition of the Gasologista land is considered one of the greatest achievements of the current administration. The purchase makes it possible to fulfill fans' long-standing desire and promises to transform the club in financial and structural terms, enabling greater autonomy for holding matches and events. With this initiative, Flamengo is moving forward in consolidating its own stadium, something that has been discussed for years.
In addition to structural advances, Rodolfo Landim's tenure, which ends at the end of 2024, is marked by achievements both on and off the pitch. However, the club's current president should continue to play an important role at Flamengo in the coming years.
According to information from the newspaper O Globo, Rodrigo Dunshee, current general and legal vice-president of Flamengo, and likely candidate for the club's presidency, plans to announce that Rodolfo Landim will occupy the position of CEO in 2025, if he wins the elections. With this, Landim will remain directly involved in the administration of Flamengo for another three years.
During his management, Rodolfo Landim was responsible for Flamengo's significant victories, including national and international titles. In addition to sporting successes, the management stood out for its modernization initiatives and financial growth of the club, which culminated in the purchase of land for the stadium and administrative reorganization.

Flamengo continues to wait for the return of Arrascaeta, who has been sidelined since August 18th, when he suffered an injury to his left thigh. The number 14 is being monitored by the club's Medical Department and his return to the field is still uncertain for the decisive clash against Bahia, valid for the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. The game will take place on September 12th, at 9:45 pm, at Maracanã.
Arrascaeta has not yet started the transition phase to the field, remaining under the care of Flamengo's medical department. With less than a week to go until the match, the club is racing against time to count on the return of the Uruguayan star. According to journalist Venê Casagrande, the player is in the final stage of recovery and there is an expectation that he will begin the physical transition next Monday (09).
IMPACT OF INJURIES IN THE SECOND HALF
An undisputed starter at Flamengo and frequently called up for the Uruguayan national team, Arrascaeta has faced physical problems throughout the seasons, especially in the second half, when the calendar becomes more intense. Since 2019, the midfielder has suffered 70% of his injuries after June, totaling 20 absences for Flamengo, 14 of them from that period.
In the first match of the quarter-finals against Bahia, Flamengo won 1-0 away from home, with a goal from Bruno Henrique. With this result, Rubro-Negro can even draw at Maracanã to guarantee their place in the tournament's semifinals. The team hopes to count on Arrascaeta, but is also preparing alternatives to make up for his possible absence.
Flamengo still has some doubts for the clash, but the likely lineup has names like: Rossi, Wesley (Varela), Fabrício Bruno, Léo Pereira, Ayrton Lucas, Pulgar (Léo Ortiz), Allan, Gerson, Luiz Araújo, Bruno Henrique and Gabigol (Arrascaeta).
The club races against time

Ayrton Lucas, left-back of Flamengo, will be missing the team in the next round of the Brazilian Championship against Vasco da Gama. The player received his third yellow card in the last match and, consequently, is suspended for the classic. The absence of Ayrton Lucas represents a significant loss for coach Tite, who will have to look for alternatives for the team's left flank.
Ayrton Lucas has been a fundamental piece in Flamengo's tactical formation, both defensively and offensively . His speed and ability to support the attack are characteristics that make him one of the main players in the squad. With his suspension, Flamengo will need to rethink their strategy to face Vasco, who are also going through a decisive moment in the competition.
Ayrton Lucas' suspension could also force the Flamengo to change your playing style. The full-back is known for his ability to advance down the left flank, creating plays and serving attackers with precise crosses. Without him, the team loses this offensive strength, which can lead to a more cautious scheme, prioritizing defensive solidity to the detriment of aggressiveness in attack.
