After losing to Santos at Vila Belmiro and Cruzeiro's victory over Fluminense at Maracanã, Flamengo lost the lead in the 2025 Brasileirão Betano. Despite this, the club still has one game in hand over its direct rivals.
The pressure from the fans has increased, and the results on the field directly impact the board's decisions, including possible departures and arrivals to the squad. One of the most talked-about situations at the moment involves right-back Wesley, and whether we'll actually see Wesley sold to Flamengo.
At just 21 years old, Wesley is seen as one of the most promising young players in the red-and-black squad. Roma, from Italy, has officially expressed interest in the full-back, which has accelerated behind-the-scenes talks.
According to journalist Venê Casagrande, the board has received inquiries and is considering offers, but Wesley's sale to Flamengo will only happen if a replacement is in the works . The board is unwilling to take risks in such a sensitive area of the team.
This imposition comes because Filipe Luís, the team's coach, doesn't want to lose a key player without having a suitable alternative. In the match against São Paulo, for example, Wesley started and demonstrated his usefulness both offensively and defensively. The team has already suffered injuries to players like Varela and Ayrton Lucas this season, which makes this precaution even more understandable.
The striker is unable to continue as a starter for Raposa due to Kaio Jorge's good form and is already looking forward to a move abroad.

Gabigol left Flamengo at the beginning of this season after not renewing his contract and signing with Cruzeiro . However, his stay at the Minas Gerais club may be short-lived: the striker is being targeted by teams in Saudi Arabia , according to Rádio Tupi.
The future of the former Flamengo striker is uncertain. He's currently losing his place in the team due to the excellent form of Kaio Jorge , the Brasileirão's top scorer, and the board's search for new attacking reinforcements. The combination of these factors has opened the door for international clubs to approach him.
In 2025, Gabigol played 30 matches for Cruzeiro, scoring 11 goals and providing four assists under Leonardo Jardim . Despite a strong start, the loss of a starting spot and early elimination from international competitions diminished his prominence.
Meanwhile, his former club is going through the opposite moment. Flamengo beat Internacional 1-0 last Wednesday (13) at Maracanã, and took the lead in the round of 16 of the Libertadores, with a goal from Bruno Henrique, needing only a draw next Wednesday (20) to guarantee a place in the quarterfinals.
Despite a decisive moment in the Libertadores, Flamengo now focuses its efforts on the Brasileirão, when it faces Internacional in the 20th round and the first of the second half of the Championship. Flamengo leads the competition with 40 points, three more than Gabigol's second-place Cruzeiro, but with a game in hand.

Flamengo called a meeting of the Deliberative Council for next Tuesday (19) which will have as its agenda the approval of the new master sponsor of professional football. The decision comes shortly after the termination of the contract with Pixbet , which ended this Thursday (14).
The battle for the most prestigious spot at the Sacred Mantle is between two sports betting giants: Superbet and Betano . The former already has its brand on the uniforms of São Paulo and Fluminense; the latter is a sponsor of the Copa do Brasil and the Campeonato Brasileiro , reinforcing its market share.
According to Poder360, the Flamengo board is seeking not only the highest financial value but also a solid partner with a positive image who prioritizes Flamengo in its marketing and expansion plans. The goal is to establish a strategic, stable, and long-term partnership. 7k Bet expressed interest but withdrew from the competition.
The previous contract with Pixbet provided for R$105 million in the first year, R$115 million in the second, and R$125 million in the third, plus bonuses. Superbet's proposal, according to the publication, exceeds R$200 million annually—a figure that, if confirmed , would set a new record in Brazilian soccer.
The amount offered by Betano has not yet been revealed. The final decision will be made by the board members next week and will determine which brand will occupy the most valuable jersey in South America in the coming days. Therefore, next Sunday (17), Flamengo should have the space empty for the game against Internacional.

Atlético-MG were drawing 1-1 with Godoy Cruz (ARG) this Thursday (14), when coach Cuca promoted Reinier's debut . The former Flamengo player entered the field and, in his first decisive participation, provided the assist for Atlético's comeback goal in the round of 16 of the South American, at Arena MRV.
The move stemmed from a quick counterattack, catching the Argentine defense off guard. The ball quickly reached Reinier , who, with a chest-touch worthy of a footvolley, set up Hulk for a first-time finish to make it 2-1.
A standout in the red-black youth academy, Reinier made his professional debut in 2019 , joining the historic squad led by Jorge Jesus. After good performances, he was sold to Real Madrid (ESP) in 2020, for around R$30 million (value at the time).
Without opportunities in the Spanish club's professional ranks, the midfielder spent time on loan at Borussia Dortmund (GER), Girona (ESP), Frosinone (ITA) and Granada (ESP) . Earlier this month, Atlético-MG confirmed his signing for the remainder of the season.
Flamengo considered Reinier's return, but the player's staff considered the fees he was asking for too high . Therefore, the club focused its efforts on signing Colombian Jorge Carrascal, then at Dynamo Moscow (RUS).
