Flamengo continues to restructure its youth teams and is reinforcing itself for the rest of the season. Thus, Mais Querido signed defender Daniel Monteiro, from Porto Vitória, last Monday (23).
According to information from the portal "Flazoeiro" and "Flabase", Rubro-Negro acquired the 17-year-old defender for the under-17 category. The youngster arrives at Gávea on a one-year loan with an option to buy in the contract signed between the clubs.
Flamengo faced Porto Vitória in the U-17 Brazil Cup on March 11. Even though the team from Espírito Santo lost 5-1, Daniel Monteiro's performance pleased the Mais Querido scouting team , who months later signed him.
Despite being only 17 years old, Daniel was already playing for his former club's under-20s, showing that he was at a level above his category. In this way, the youngster will be able to reinforce Rubro-Negro in both categories.
While Daniel is not present at Flamengo, Mais Querido will face Cuiabá next Wednesday (25), at 2:45 pm, in Gávea, in a game valid for the U-20 Brasileirão. Remembering that Rubro-Negro will not have coach Nuno Campos, who resigned last week.
