After the tragic elimination of Flamengo in the Libertadores, against Peñarol, the journalist Renato Maurício Prado, wrote in his 'Uol' column, questions, for him, without answers, regarding the work of Tite and the Flamengo board in the current season.
Following in full:
1. How can a team that needs to win not shoot on goal? In two entire matches, against Peñarol (which spends less than 15% of Flamengo's salary on its football), there were only two shots towards the rival's goal.
2. How can a coach leave the club's most expensive signing, Carlos Alcaraz, on the bench, preferring to exchange Fabrício Bruno for David Luiz, as if that would make any difference?
3. How can a coach who calls himself a "chameleon", for "knowing how to play in different ways", attribute the resounding failure of his work to the injury of a center forward, Pedro, around whom the team's entire scheme was created?
4. How this scheme never worked, even with Pedro on the field, during most of the poor Libertadores campaign, with defeats to Bolívar. Palestinian and what not?
5. How could the work of a year, considered by many to be the best Brazilian coach in activity, been unable to produce even a draft team with the supposedly best squad in Brazil?
6. How did Carioquinha's impregnable defense become a sieve, Swiss cheese, even though it has admittedly good quality players?
7. How did De La Cruz and Arrascaeta start to play so badly? What's wrong with preparing both?
8. How do Rodolfo Landim and Marcos Braz still think they will win their respective elections with another year of collecting failures, like in 2023?
9. How can Flamengo believe that they will win the Copa do Brasil by continuing such poor work?
10. How has Tite not been fired yet?

Flamengo has formalized a proposal for goalkeeper Gabriel Brazão , Santos' standout player in 2025. According to information from UOL, Rubro-Negro offered seven million euros (around R$45 million) for 60% of the player's economic rights.
Despite the high price, Santos rejected the offer. The São Paulo club believes Brazão should only leave if a minimum offer of €15 million (approximately R$94 million) is met, a sum considered fair by the board to open negotiations.
According to Gazeta do Urubu , the Rio de Janeiro club has not yet made an official offer to the player. Sources within the board revealed that the player is being monitored, but there have been no official talks with the goalkeeper yet.
Gabriel Brazão is in great form and has become one of the most highly valued goalkeepers in Brazilian football. In addition to Flamengo 's interest, European clubs are also monitoring the situation. Torino, from Italy, even submitted a R$64 million offer , which Santos also rejected.
Other giants like Chelsea, Galatasaray, and Porto are closely monitoring the player's progress , as he has played 33 matches this season. Santos' board, which recently loaned João Paulo to Bahia, is working to keep Brazão at least until the end of the year.
The red-black board continues negotiations for Valentín Castellanos, but the Lazio striker was sent off in a friendly after a brawl.

Even after a successful transfer window, Flamengo remains attentive to the transfer market to further strengthen its squad . The main target at this time is Argentine striker Valentín Castellanos , a player who has expressed interest in joining Flamengo but faces resistance from Lazio, who are not making his exit easy.
Last Saturday (16), Lazio played a friendly against Atromitos, from Greece, winning 2-0. However, the match was marked by a general confusion that resulted in the expulsion of Castellanos . The Mengão striker disagreed with defender Mansur , exchanged aggressions and ended up receiving a red card.
According to journalist Fabrício Lopes, the fight didn't end on the field. In the locker room, the situation escalated, and the police had to intervene to calm things down . Italian press sources indicate that Castellanos is experiencing emotional instability, driven by frustration at not being released by Lazio to play in Brazilian football.
In the market, the Rubro-Negro are looking for a number 9 with different characteristics than Pedro , prioritizing a more mobile and versatile player in attack. Names like Taremi, Beltrán, and Castellanos were only monitored by the Rio team.
