Since becoming a starter in the second phase, the boy has become a key player in the team's strategies. The next challenge? Face Aster, this Friday, in the quarterfinals. Expectations are high, after all, Weliton has already performed against Osasco Audax, Náutico and São José, where he made the network shake twice.
The story of this rising star also caught the attention of the Tite's coaching staff, who spared no praise and, rumor has it, even asked for Weliton's loan to be extended. It seems that the boy won not only the fans, but also the heart of the Brazilian team coach. The contract, which would initially end at the end of January, gained another six months, and at the end of that period, Mengão has the chance to guarantee Weliton permanently.
But, as the saying goes, "nothing is for free", and Flamengo will have to open its coffers if it wants to call Weliton its own. Around R$1 million for 50% of the economic rights is the stipulated price to acquire the attacker. If you want to have 70% of this talent, the investment goes to R$1.5 million. Money well spent, considering the kid's potential.
And Juventude, the star's home club, is also keeping an eye on the valorization of its pupil. Even if Flamengo decides to take Weliton to Gávea permanently, the team from Rio Grande do Sul will still have a slice of the pie, with a view to future transfers. A negotiation that appears to be advantageous for all sides.
Before arriving in Gávea, Weliton was already making waves at Juventude. In 2022, he was the top scorer in the Campeonato Gaúcho under-20, with an impressive 11 goals in 11 matches. The highlight was so much that he had the chance to train with professionals, participating in the Brazilian Aspirants Championship and even playing a few minutes against Avaí in Série A.
What we have left is to look forward to the next steps of this rising talent. Weliton is proof that, when the ball rolls, the emotion goes beyond the numbers. Flamengo has in its ranks a player who promises to make a difference and continue to make the Rubro-Negra Nation proud. May more goals come and may Weliton's story be written in golden letters in the hearts of the fans.
The club has a big difference in work

The Sinergia Rubro-Negra Group (SRN), made up of influential partners from Flamengo, held a meeting last Saturday (7), at the club's headquarters, located in Gávea. The main objective of the meeting was to promote fraternization among the participants, but, inevitably, club politics ended up dominating the discussions throughout the event.
The main topic that emerged during the meeting was the support of the SRN to Rodrigo Dunshee's candidacy for president of Flamengo. Dunshee, who currently holds the position of general and legal vice-president of the club, is a prominent figure in the red-black political scene. The group, made up of members who share an aligned vision regarding the club's management, sees in Dunshee a name prepared to take over Flamengo's leadership, especially considering the upcoming electoral cycle.
During the event, members of the SRN highlighted Dunshee's role in the current administration, remembering that he was a fundamental player in several legal achievements of the Flamengo in recent years. The group believes that his experience and proximity to the club's internal processes make him the ideal candidate to succeed current president Rodolfo Landim, whose tenure ends at the end of his term.
Although the initial objective of the meeting was a celebration between the partners, it was inevitable that the conversations turned to Flamengo's political future. The club's presidential elections are approaching, and political groups are already beginning to articulate support and strategies. The SRN, being a strong group within the red-black political structure, has stood out for its organization and capacity to mobilize members.
Those present discussed, among other topics, the possible implications of a possible Dunshee's candidacy. His name has been circulating among members for some time, but now, with the explicit support of the SRN, his candidacy is gaining strength. The members highlighted that Dunshee is a name of continuity, someone who is already part of the current management and deeply knows the challenges and needs of the club. This, in the group's view, represents a positive point, as Dunshee could continue the projects started under the Landim administration.
The club has been in a race against time

Flamengo continues to debate whether to look for a replacement for Pedro, a striker who is recovering from an injury. The decision is complex, involving several variables ranging from the financial cost to the availability of players on the market. One of the main points under discussion is the high cost of a possible replacement. The club is aware that signing a center forward may require a significant investment, something that needs to be carefully evaluated within the team's current budget.
In addition, Flamengofaces the challenge of downtime of players available on the market. Many of the center forwards who are free for transfer come from long periods without playing, with recent injuries or prolonged absence from the field. This situation represents a risk, as the integration of a player who is not in the rhythm of the game may take longer and be less effective initially.
The club is also considering the limited number of viable options on the market. The scarcity of attackers who meet the criteria required by Flamengo – both in terms of quality and physical readiness – is a factor that further complicates the search for a suitable replacement.
In this scenario, the management of Flamengo assesses whether signing a new player is the best solution or whether there are viable alternatives to deal with Pedro's absence, such as adjusting the tactical formation or promoting youth players. The final decision is still being studied, and the club needs to carefully consider all aspects before making a decision.

Flamengo always keeps an eye on the market in search of strengthening and capturing talent for the youth categories. Thus, after the end of the Copa Rio U-15, Rubro-Negro signed Rafa Tenório, Resende's number 10.
After observing Rafa Tenório's performance in the Copa Rio, Flamengo acted quickly and signed the athlete. According to Coluna do Fla, the midfielder signed a three-year contract with Mengão, that is, until 2027. The 15-year-old athlete has already started activities with the Fla squad this Wednesday (03), at CT Ninho do Urubu.
Rafa was one of the main players in the Copa Rio U15. The midfielder scored ten goals and, with that, became the tournament's second top scorer. It is important to emphasize that the athlete reached this mark even with Resende only playing in the first phase of the championship.
Rafa Tenório is 15 years old and is a resident of Volta Redonda. And it was precisely on the team in the city where he lives that the athlete began to take his first steps in football. With good performances for the team from the south of the state of Rio de Janeiro, the midfielder caught Flamengo's attention.
First of all, this will be Rafa Tenório's second stint in the Rubro-Negro youth categories . After that, the young man transferred to Fluminense and, finally, arrived at Resende, where he was the team's number 10 during the Copa Rio U-15.
