Pedro's situation at Flamengo has been in the spotlight again in recent days. The number 9 has been sidelined since the match against São Paulo due to a combination of factors: subpar training performance, behavioral issues, and unresolved internal issues.


PROBLEMS SOLVED BY THE COACH


According to coach Filipe Luís, the center forward wasn't as physically fit as the other players and showed little commitment to his activities. The incident triggered a series of developments that put the player's future at the Rio de Janeiro club in doubt.


FILIPE LUÍS WAS VERY INCISIVE

During the press conference following the loss to São Paulo, Filipe Luís was blunt when commenting on Pedro's performance at Flamengo. He said the player had the worst physical performance of any athlete during preparation and described his behavior in training as "regrettable" and "disrespectful."


The firm tone surprised some of the press and fans, as a coach rarely publicly exposes an athlete in such a way. The statement generated significant backlash on social media and behind the scenes at the club.

Two days later, the striker spoke out. In a statement posted on social media, Pedro acknowledged his drop in performance but said he felt disrespected by the way the club and the coach handled the situation.
