Three rounds of the Brazilian Championship have already taken place and Rubro-Negro and Galo remain at zero in the table
|
The Brasileirão Feminino began the 2024 season this month and, after three rounds, two teams have still failed to score: Flamengo and Atlético-MG. Corinthians leads the competition and is the only team that has managed to win all the matches played so far.
In the debut of the Brazilian Championship, Flamengo went to São Paulo to face Palmeiras and, in a tight scoreline, left with a 3-2 defeat to Palestrinas. Then, Rubro-negro lost another game in the Brasileirão Feminino by a goal difference. This time, Cruzeiro beat the Rio team 2-1.
Finally, in the last round of the competition, Flamengo once again faced a rival from São Paulo and had another defeat , 3 to 2 for Corinthians, in a game in Rio de Janeiro. Like Rubro-negro, Atlético-MG also has three defeats in the Brazilian Championship and is last placed in the table.
In the first round, Galo lost 3-0 playing against Fluminense away from home in the Brasileirão Feminino. In the second match, the Avengers faced Santos and, again, conceded three goals; Sereias da Vila won 3-1.
Against Red Bull Bragantino, in the last round, Atlético-MG had the third consecutive defeat in the 2024 season of the Brazilian Championship : 2 to 1 for the São Paulo team.
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.
Player was the target of attacks from Palmeiras and Atlético-MG, but chose the red-black

There's new reinforcement arriving at the Ninho! This is Gui Ruck< /a>, 15-year-old jewel who will reinforce Flamengo's under-15s. The young man who was at Real Valladolid in Spain was of interest to clubs like Real Madrid and PSG in European football. The jewel published on his social networks an image of his arrival at Ninho do Urubu to begin work. In Brazil, Atlético-MG and Palmeiras tried to bring the athlete, but the player chose to go to the red-black team. The young promise arrives with the status of a major signing for Flamengo's academy and said goodbye to Spanish soil alongside striker Kenedy, who briefly played for Mais Querido in 2021. The post was also published on Gui's social media. In 2023, the young man had already gone to see his new club. Gui went with his family to visit Ninho do Urubu, when the red and black interest was still in its initial stages, so that everyone could see the facilities and, as a bonus, he managed to get a photo with Uruguayan midfielder Giorgian de Arrascaeta. According to GE, Gui Ruck will reinforce the under-15s and will sign a contract valid for three seasons, but, due to current legislation, a football player can only have a professional contract after reaching the age of 16. Therefore, the contractual fine is 50 million euros, an amount lower than Flamengo usually works with home silver.
Still without reinforcements for the professional team, Flamengo is preparing to face Bolívar in this Thursday (15) at 9:30 pm (Brasília time). It will be the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores da América and the expectation is for a full house, as tickets for the game are already sold out.
