Flamengo once again received a big name in Gávea. The judo star is at the club's headquarters this week to carry out training sessions with an eye on the Olympics. This is the second time this year that Frenchman Teddy Riner has visited Mais Querido.


In February, Teddy chose Gávea for a period of training. On that occasion, the judo star was loved by those present at the Rubro Negro headquarters and even met with Zico. The judoka was full of praise for Mais Querido during his first visit, and he liked it so much that he returned.


“It’s the best Brazilian club in the world. Very famous. I know this because I see the Sacred Mantle everywhere I go”, said the multi-time champion.


The Frenchman is once again enchanted by the club's facilities and is taking advantage of his time in Rio de Janeiro to study Brazilian techniques : “Flamengo has a structure, for Brazil and the world, that is simply perfect. I have a lot of friends and I learn Ne Waze and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which are very important techniques for me," he said.

Teddy is already guaranteed at the Paris 2024 Olympics and is now focusing on winning more medals. He is already the most successful judoka in history, but he wants to increase his shelf with more titles. There are already an incredible three gold medals at the Olympics: one in London 2012, another in Rio 2016 and the last in Tokyo 2020.


With his height of more than two meters and 130 kilos, Teddy wants to stay in the podium at the next Olympics. The Frenchman also has nine world titles under his belt. Therefore, he will be able to expand his shelf a little more in the next Olympics.

According to a survey released by the Transfermarkt platform, Flamengo boasts four of the ten players who have lost the most market value in Brazil. The analysis takes into account each player's individual performance throughout the season and identifies the Rio de Janeiro club as the leader in the rankings.


Among the names mentioned are midfielder Nicolás De la Cruz and striker Pedro, who appear at the top of the list . Both have faced periods of instability and physical problems, determining factors in the drop in projected values.


Signed with high expectations, De la Cruz suffered from injuries and was unable to continue his strong start to his career at the club . His lack of rhythm directly impacted his market value, resulting in a drop of approximately €6 million compared to his previous value.


PEDRO GOES THROUGH OSCILLATIONS

One of the most consistent scorers in Brazilian football in recent years, Pedro lost his place at the beginning of the season due to injuries and was even dropped from the squad following internal problems. Despite regaining prominence recently, his market value has dropped by around €2 million.


VIÑA AND MICHAEL COMPLETE LIST

Left-back Viña also makes the rankings. Having only recovered from injury in the second half of the year, he competes for position with Alex Sandro and Ayrton Lucas, a factor that has contributed to his lack of performance. Michael , who also struggled with physical problems, became one of coach Filipe Luís's last attacking options, which explains his drop in rating.

Flamengo reported that Guillermo Varela, right-back for the Uruguayan national team, was released after Uruguay qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup . The player presented with pubalgia and will be re-evaluated by the Flamengo medical department.


According to the official statement, Dr. Fernando Sassaki, the club's doctor, maintained constant contact with the Uruguayan Football Association's medical team to monitor the athlete's situation.


ARRASCAETA WAS SPARED


In addition to Varela, midfielder Giorgian De Arrascaeta also returns to the squad. Despite not presenting any medical problems, the player was rested for Uruguay's second match on this FIFA World Cup . The club expressed its gratitude for the cooperation between the medical departments of both the Celeste and Rubro-Negro teams.

The break in national championships between September 1st and 10th is due to the FIFA Date , intended for the Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. There was an expectation that the elimination in the Copa do Brasil against Atlético-MG would create a longer interval between commitments, but the changes promoted by the CBF reduced the space in Mengão's schedule.


NEXT APPOINTMENT

Flamengo returns to the field next Sunday (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), against Juventude, at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The club seeks to end a long fast in Caxias do Sul , since the last victory there occurred on October 1, 1997, when they won 1-0 after an own goal by Rodrigo Costa.
