Training this Tuesday (15th) was marked by chaos. In the final stretch of training at Ninho do Urubu, Gerson and Varela had a falling out and exchanged punches in the CT. After the incident, Flamengo's board met with the players and it was decided that both would be punished.

Gerson punched Varela's nose, which may have suffered a fracture. The Uruguayan went to a hospital in Barra da Tijuca, where he is being evaluated to decide whether or not he will participate in the game against Grêmio this Wednesday (16).

The meeting between the board and the players ended that both would be punished for the fight in the CT. Typically, undisciplined athletes are fined 5% of their salary and suspended from one game. However, Varela and Gerson will only be fined, being released for the dispute against Grêmio.


Flamengo and Grêmio face each other this Wednesday (16), for the return of the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil. The clubs duel at 21:30 (Brasília time), in Maracanã.

After a year and a half without making the due payments , Internacional was found guilty by the Brazilian Football Confederation's National Chamber for Dispute Resolution (CNRD) of defaulting on the negotiations for Thiago Maia with Flamengo. Internacional had reported the case in November of last year.


SENTENCE DETAILS


The CNRD decision provides that Internacional must:


  • Pay 1,472,588.33 euros to the Flamengo , referring to breach of contract;
  • Pay R$51,211.99 in legal costs;
  • Pay the remaining installments stipulated in the contract , under penalty of new sanctions;
  • Pay R$467,000 in legal fees to Flamengo's legal representatives.
INTERNATIONAL CAN STILL APPEAL

Despite the conviction, the Rio Grande do Sul club still has the possibility of appealing the decision. However, at Flamengo , the assessment is that the CBF processes take excessively long , which will likely prolong the resolution of the case even further.


THE NEGOTIATION INVOLVING THIAGO MAIA

The agreement between the clubs was signed in February 2023 for €4 million, payable in ten installments. Internacional, however, failed to pay any of the installments. The attempt to transfer the player to Santos, even without having paid Flamengo, sparked outrage among the club's board , who blocked the negotiation. Thiago Maia arrived in São Paulo for medical examinations but ended up returning to Porto Alegre.

PUNISHMENT ON THE FIELD

Even before the conviction, Internacional had already felt the weight of the "default" on the field . In the round of 16 of the Libertadores in August, they faced Flamengo, with Thiago Maia on the field, but were defeated 3-0 on aggregate. Internacional advanced to the quarterfinals, leaving the Gauchos behind.

Rede Globo has selected its team to broadcast the match between Flamengo and Grêmio , this Sunday (31), for the Brazilian Championship. The duel will be shown on national television, with the exception of the state of São Paulo , which will follow Santos x Fluminense, live from Vila Belmiro.


In the Rubro-Negro game, the narration will be done by Gustavo Villani, while the comments will be made by Júnior and Roger Flores , a traditional duo in the broadcaster's broadcasts for games focused on the Rio de Janeiro public.


FORMER FLAMENGO PLAYERS WILL ALSO BE AT THE SANTOS GAME


Interestingly, the match being shown in São Paulo will also feature familiar voices from Flamengo fans . Diego Ribas and Caio Ribeiro, both former Flamengo players, will be on commentary, forming a quartet of former Flamengo players working as commentators for Sunday's broadcasts.

JORGINHO IS DOUBTFUL FOR THE GAME AT MARACANÃ


While Globo is defining its broadcast team, Flamengo is still dealing with lineup uncertainty. Midfielder Jorginho developed muscle discomfort after the 8-0 rout of Vitória . Despite going to Ninho do Urubu on his day off to expedite his treatment, he felt pain again during the squad's return.

Tests carried out did not indicate any injury, but the player was spared from field activities and will be re-evaluated this Saturday (30). If he is not fit, Filipe Luís may select De La Cruz, Allan or Evertton Araújo as substitutes.

FLAMENGO DEFENDS LEADERSHIP OF THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP

Regardless of Jorginho's presence, Flamengo takes to the field this Sunday (31), at 4 pm (Brasília time), against Grêmio, at Maracanã , for the 22nd round of the Brasileirão. Rubro-Negro is the leader of the competition, with 46 points in 20 games, while Tricolor gaúcho occupies the 14th position, with 24 points.

Flamengo has defined Victor Hugo's future . The 21-year-old midfielder will be loaned to Santos until December 2026. The player already has a trip scheduled for next Sunday (31), when he will be introduced to his new club in Baixada Santista. The negotiation was led by the club's president Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap), according to information from journalist Venê Casagrande.


REFORMULATION OF THE RUBRO-NEGRO SQUAD


The youngster's departure is part of Flamengo 's roster restructuring process, which seeks to optimize the squad and generate new revenue. In recent days, the club also completed the sale of Matheus Gonçalves to Al Ahli in Saudi Arabia and the loan of Lorran to Pisa in Italy . Now, the board is focusing its efforts on negotiations involving Michael and Juninho, who may be the next to leave Ninho do Urubu.


CORINTHIANS ALSO CONSIDERED THE MIDFIELDER

According to Venê Casagrande, Corinthians also attempted to sign Victor Hugo and held talks with his representatives and Flamengo . However, the midfielder opted for Santos, attracted mainly by the possibility of playing alongside Neymar, who is expected to strengthen the São Paulo club.


PROMISE FROM THE BASE LOST SPOT AT FLAMENGO

A product of Ninho, Victor Hugo was promoted to the professional team in 2022 and participated in the Copa do Brasil and Libertadores victories . Despite a promising start, he lost his place under Tite and was loaned to Turkish football.

Upon returning to Brazil, he nearly signed with Famalicão (POR), but the deal fell through. He still received a few opportunities under Filipe Luís, but failed to convince the coaching staff and would be underused that season.
