Anitta's boyfriend, former Flamengo player becomes a trusted man in the English team

Last Thursday (26), Flamengo was unable to overcome the necessary challenges and was eliminated from the Libertadores da America in the quarterfinals. After this elimination, coupled with recent unsatisfactory results in the Brazilian Championship, Tite faces increasing pressure on his position. It is no surprise that many fans are in favor of the coach's dismissal.

A poll carried out by the portal 'Coluna do Fla' revealed that a significant majority of fans voted in favor of Tite's departure. In total, 82.5% of participants expressed support for the coach's dismissal, while only 17.5% were opposed to the idea.

In short, Tite has a contract with Flamengo until the end of 2024. Almost a year at the head of the red-black team, the coach has not yet achieved unanimity among the fans. This is partly due to the recent defeats in the Brasileirão and the elimination in the quarter-finals of the Libertadores.

Recently, the coach became the target of several demonstrations by fans. In Gávea, graffiti on the wall asked: “Out, Tite”. Furthermore, in the stadiums where Flamengo plays, shouts of support for the coach's dismissal have resounded in the stands.

Before the elimination in the Libertadores, Flamengo's directors were supporting Tite's stay. However, after the early exit from the continental competition, the scenario changed.

Although Tite's resignation has not yet been made official, president Rodolfo Landim considers that Rodrigo Dunshee's campaign is at risk if Flamengo ends the season without winning a significant title. In this way, the red and black leaders began to consider the possibility of dismissing the coach.

With the electoral scenario in view, together with the elimination in the Libertadores, Tite's future was questioned behind the scenes at Flamengo by first time. However, according to information from ESPN, the red and black board should not make a decision on the coach's dismissal before the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil.

Flamengo fought until the end, but failed to score goals against Peñarol this Thursday at the Campeón del Siglo Stadium, resulting in their elimination from the Copa Libertadores. The game, which ended Mengão's participation in the competition, left the team in search of new goals, now focusing on the Brazilian Championship and the Brazilian Cup.
PRESIDENT OF PEÑAROL EXPRESSES INTEREST

After the end of the match, Peñarol's president, Ignacio Ruglio, expressed his desire to have the players Arrascaeta, De La Cruz and Varela in his squad. During an interview with Carve Deportiva radio, Ruglio highlighted the good relationship he maintains with the three athletes: “We have been in constant contact for 15 days. Their families were present in a box yesterday, especially attended by Peñarol. They are exceptional players who, at some point, will want to return.”

After the game, the Flamengo squad, accompanied by the board, passed through the mixed zone of the stadium. However, midfielder Arrascaeta decided not to give interviews to the Brazilian press, speaking only to Uruguayan journalists before quickly leaving the place. President Rodolfo Landim also chose to avoid the press, going straight to the bus without making any statements. This attitude generated criticism among fans on social media, who expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of communication from the board.

With their elimination in the Libertadores, Flamengo now directs its attention to the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil, seeking to improve its performance in the remaining competitions. The red-and-black nation hopes that the team will restructure and shine again in search of new titles.

Norwich City, a traditional club in England, is eyeing a new reinforcement for the season. The English team has shown interest in Victor Hugo, Flamengo, and has already started moves behind the scenes to try to secure the signing of the player through a one-year loan.

Norwich's objective is clear: to find a suitable replacement for Gabriel Sara, a Brazilian player who had stood out in the team, but who, for strategic reasons, is no longer part of the club's main plans. Victor Hugo, with his performance at Flamengo, caught the attention of the English and became one of the main options to fill the space left by Sara.

Victor Hugo emerged as one of the promises of the youth teams of Flamengo. With good performances for the main team, he gradually gained his place in the red and black team. His versatility on the field, marking ability and vision of the game are characteristics that made him a different player, capable of playing both as a central midfielder and as a more advanced midfielder, close to the attackers.

The player's recent season at Flamengo was marked by good performances, which did not go unnoticed by European scouts. Norwich's interest is not the first to come from abroad, but the loan proposal could be attractive both for the player and for the Rio club, which sees the opportunity to give Victor Hugo greater international visibility.
