Many athletes have been promoted to the professional ranks, others are also traded, and we continue to deliver impressive results in the category, see these last few years. In these six years we reached at least the semi-final of the Brazilian Championship, but then there is also the final of the Copa do Brasil, the final of the State Championship, Brazilian titles, and now the Libertadores title. And even so, Flamengo's base continues to place athletes in the professional ranks with a very aligned training process”, he explains, before adding:
“We continue to deliver a very competitive team in the under-20s and that is what we believe. That's what we're going to continue thinking about doing. In other words, zero weight of pressure for us in the competition, we know our responsibility”, comments Mário Jorge.
