Classified for the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil and the round of 16 of the Libertadores, Flamengo sees the Brasileirão as a difficult obstacle to succeed. For this reason, Rubro Negro sees the cups as real possibilities of conquests, just like the 2022 season. According to the journalist of TV Brasil, Sergio du Bocage, the cast and directors of Rubro Negra made a financial pact about the matamata.

” There is an agreement between the management of Flamengo and the players that half of the prize money from the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores will be shared by the entire squad. That is, cast, technical commission and employees of Ninho do Urubu. This is without a doubt a fantastic motivation. Because if you consider that the prize for the Copa do Brasil is R$ 80 million, R$ 40 million will be divided between the group”, informed Sergio, during the broadcaster’s sports edition. For example, would you run in a game that will earn you a prize of BRL 40 million? Or in a game worth just one title, like the Brazilian Championship?” The team has not led the championship since the last round of 2020 when it last won the title. Since then, Rubro Negro has only ranked second, something achieved in 2021, 2022 and now in 2023.

Flamengo took to the field this Sunday (31) against Grêmio, for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship, but already has a confirmed problem for the next commitment. Defender Léo Ortiz received a yellow card in the first half and will serve a suspension against Juventude.


The warning came in the 44th minute, after a tackle in which the defender disarmed an opponent. Despite the clean play, referee Paulo César Zanovelli da Silva deemed it a foul and penalized the number 3 , sparking protests from the red-and-blacks.


FLAMENGO WILL HAVE IMPORTANT SKILLS


Without Ortiz, the team led by Filipe Luís returns to the field only on September 14 , against Juventude, at 4 pm, at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, in a duel valid for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão .

In addition to the defender's suspension, Flamengo already knows it will be without Erick Pulgar. The midfielder is recovering from a fractured right foot and is expected to return only at the end of September. Full-back Alex Sandro, with a calf injury, and midfielder Jorginho, with muscle pain, are also doubtful for the next match.


FIFA DATE INTERRUPTS CALENDAR

The red-and-black squad will have a two-week break due to the FIFA World Cup. The Brazilian national team will play the last two rounds of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers : Chile on September 4th and Bolivia on the 9th.

Gerson's start at Zenit has been marked by difficulties. After leaving Flamengo shortly after the Club World Cup , the midfielder has yet to establish himself with the Russian team. He has been receiving few minutes on the pitch and recently missed the last game due to an injury.

GERSON'S MANAGER SPEAKS OUT


Journalist Julio Miguel Neto reported that he spoke with Marcão, the player's father and representative. According to him, there has been no official contact so far from the athlete, who left Mais Querido to play for the Russian team.

" If anything came up, it was from club to club. I haven't been officially notified by anyone yet. I haven't offered him to any club ," the businessman declared.


POSSIBILITY OF EXIT

Still, the possibility isn't ruled out, as it's common for Middle Eastern clubs to engage directly with teams before negotiating with players. It remains to be seen whether negotiations will progress in the coming days.
