The future of talented right-winger David Neres at Benfica appears uncertain, with reports of the player's dissatisfaction with coach Roger Schmidt's decisions. According to the Portuguese newspaper Record, Neres would be interested in leaving the Portuguese club at the end of the European season, which could represent an opportunity for Flamengo.
Neres' discontent would be related to the coach's pre-programmed substitutions , who often place him as the first to be substituted, regardless of his performance on the field. This situation could pave the way for a possible transfer of the player.
"Benfica's creative winger is reticent about continuing with Roger Schmidt as coach. (...) The displeasure with the fact that there are many times the person chosen to be the first to be sacrificed, even when he is playing well, will be one of the reasons for this openness to a possible transfer", mentions Record in its publication.
NERES INJURED IN EUROPE
In addition, Neres left Benfica's last match with a muscle injury, which will leave him out for two weeks and could last until the end of season. This situation could influence his decision about his future at the Portuguese club.
However, Neres' possible return to Brazilian football will not be an easy task, even for a club like Flamengo. With a pass valued at around 25 million euros (R$136.2 million), the value is above the Brazilian market standard, which would require a significant financial effort on the part of any interested team.
In the current season, Neres participated in 35 matches for Benfica, registering five goals and 10 assists. His presence was also notable in the Brazilian team, where he played eight games under Tite's command.

The dispute between Internacional and Flamengo over Thiago Maia's debt has entered a new chapter. According to information released by journalist Venê Casagrande, the Rio Grande do Sul club suffered another defeat at the National Chamber for Dispute Resolution (CNRD) , after having its "request for clarification" denied.
According to Venê Casagrande, Colorado still has the option of appealing to the Arbitration Chamber . However, this procedure is often costly and, in most cases, does not change decisions already made by the CNRD. Therefore, Flamengo is closely monitoring the case's developments and hopes to receive the amounts owed directly from Internacional.
The decision requires Internacional to pay €1,472,588.33 (approximately R$9 million at the current exchange rate) for the breach of contract involving Thiago Maia. In addition, the Rio Grande do Sul club must pay R$51,211.99 in legal costs.
Back in 2025, during a transfer window, Santos tried to sign Thiago Maia . However, the deal ended up not moving forward precisely because of this legal dispute between Internacional and Flamengo .
While the board moves behind the scenes, Flamengo focuses its efforts on the next matches of the 2025 season. In the 23rd round of the Brasileirão Betano Série A, the Rio de Janeiro team faces Juventude this Sunday (14), at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium . Soon after, Mengão faces Estudiantes in the Libertadores, on the 18th.
After a turbulent start, the Mais Querido director reduces public exposure, improves the internal environment and conducts strategic negotiations to strengthen the squad.

After a turbulent start to the season, Boto decided to reduce external communication and focus on internal results. The Flamengo director, who initially spoke openly to the press, both after matches and through digital channels, decided to change his stance after successive leaks of important information .
At the request of president Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap) after a long meeting, Boto stopped any direct contact with major media outlets , starting to work more privately behind the scenes at the club.
The change in approach was accompanied by results . After a positive transfer window, in which he sought to fulfill coach Filipe Luís's main requests, the manager also managed to calm internal friction. Players like Arrascaeta , De La Cruz, and Pedro, who previously had a distant relationship with Boto, now have a more fluid and relaxed dialogue.
Currently, Boto continues working on specific renewals, such as those of Filipe Luís and Arrascaeta. He also participated in sales negotiations for promising young players from the youth academy , such as Matheus Gonçalves and Lorran, reinforcing the strategic and quiet approach of his management.
While the board moves behind the scenes, Flamengo focuses its efforts on the next matches of the 2025 season. In the 23rd round of the Brasileirão Betano Série A, the Rio de Janeiro team faces Juventude this Sunday (14), at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium .
