This Saturday, November 4th, Rodrigo Muniz made his first appearance of the Premier League season for Fulham, facing Manchester United. At the time Muniz left the field, the score was still a goalless draw, but his departure was marked by a harsh incident. Rodrigo Muniz, a player who rose to prominence at Flamengo, faced a difficult time during the match.
25 minutes into the second half, he slipped and fell to the pitch during a tackle. He remained on the floor for a few minutes, clearly showing intense pain. After a while, he managed to get up, but the expression of pain was still visible on his face. Unfortunately, Muniz was unable to continue on the field and was replaced by Carlos Vinícius, a former Palmeiras player. What caught attention was the the way Rodrigo Muniz left the field, crying profusely. This clearly indicated that he was suffering greatly from the injury. His departure worried the Fulham fans and team regarding the next matches.
After Muniz's departure, Manchester United ended up winning the match 1-0, with a great goal scored by Bruno Fernandes. Rodrigo Muniz had the opportunity to play in eight matches this season, scoring just one goal. This goal came in the previous game, with an assist from Andreas Pereira, who also played for Flamengo. The difficult moment Rodrigo Muniz experienced during the game certainly raises concerns about his physical condition and his participation in Fulham's upcoming matches.
His tearful exit from the field demonstrated the intensity of the pain he was feeling, and the medical and technical team will have a challenge ahead of them to ensure his proper recovery. For Fulham fans, the hope is that Rodrigo Muniz recovers quickly and can return to the field in full shape. His presence is important for the team and his potential in attack is recognized.
The injury suffered in this game is a reminder of how unpredictable and challenging the sport can be, but it also shows the determination and passion that players like Muniz have for football. Rodrigo Muniz and his ability to recover and come back stronger than ever. Fulham fans are eager to see him in action again, hoping he can contribute to the team's success in the Premier League season.

Former Flamengo player Otávio is on Porto's list of players who could be traded to Paris
Mengão's creation had a poor performance and was criticized by Dragons fans last season, but should find a new home in France

Defender Otávio, who came through the ranks at Flamengo, may be moving to European football . With no space at Porto after an episode of indiscipline, the defender has been targeted by Paris FC , a club recently promoted to the first division of the French Championship and which is looking to strengthen its defensive sector for the 2025/2026 season. The information is from the French portal FootMercato.
The Parisian club's interest comes amid Otávio 's low usage by the "Dragões" since April, when he was punished for breaking the club's internal rules. Since then, the defender has played just 22 minutes — 11 against Boavista and another 11 against Inter Miami . The loss of space and the off-field context paved the way for a possible exit at a lower price than what Porto paid him at the beginning of the year: 12 million euros (around R$64.2 million, at the exchange rate at the time).
PARTY IN THE EARLY MORNING AND FALLING INTO ROUTINE
The episode that shook Otávio's relationship with Porto happened on April 21. The defender celebrated his 23rd birthday at a party that violated the club's curfew . Alongside Tiago Djaló and William Gomes, the former Flamengo player left a bar around 4 am, a moment recorded by fans and later sent to the club's board. The police arrived at the scene after the images were leaked.
The attitude resulted in a fine, public criticism from then coach Martín Anselmi and the player's removal from the club's plans for next season . Otávio, however, is waiting for the new coach to evaluate the squad to decide whether the defender will continue to have a place in the squad.
FLAMENGO CAN PROFIT FROM NEGOTIATION
Despite no longer holding part of the player's economic rights, Flamengo can still profit from a possible transfer of Otávio to Paris FC . This is due to FIFA's solidarity mechanism, which guarantees percentages to the training clubs.
Otávio played for Flamengo between the ages of 16 and 20 (from 2018 to 2022), which guarantees Rubro-Negro 2.5% of the value of a future sale . The calculation follows the FIFA rule that allocates 0.5% of the transfer fee for each year the athlete was at the club from the age of 16 to 23. Therefore, if the negotiation goes through, Flamengo could receive an amount proportional, albeit modest, to its participation in the defender's development process.

Former Flamengo player criticizes lack of tactical changes by Filipe Luís' team
Former player points out lack of flexibility of Mengão coach in the Club World Cup, after defeat against Bayern Munich

Flamengo's performance in the Club World Cup continues to be the subject of analysis and criticism. This time, former player Zinho took a firm stance when evaluating the team's performance against Bayern Munich. For him, the team led by Filipe Luís made a mistake by maintaining an offensive stance against a technically stronger opponent.
Zinho made a direct comparison with Fluminense, who faced Inter Milan in the same tournament. The former athlete highlighted the Tricolor's choice for a more pragmatic approach. " Fluminense was competent, surgical and obedient tactically ", said the commentator, praising Renato Gaúcho's decision to field three defenders, which made it difficult for the Italians to advance.
Zinho criticizes the report: "Flamengo has a stance..."
According to Zinho, Filipe Luís's insistence on maintaining a single game model was detrimental. He cited an alleged statement by the coach before the game: " Flamengo has a stance and cannot change it ." For the four-time champion, this inflexibility was decisive for the elimination: "He got on the plane to leave," he said, in a critical tone. The statement reinforces the need for tactical adaptation in high-level international competitions.
FLAMENGO CLOSE TO RENEWAL
Flamengo is close to officially renewing the contract with coach Filipe Luís. According to the newspaper 'O Globo', talks between the coach and the board have progressed in recent days , and the former full-back has already given the green light to continue in charge of the team until December 2026. The current contract runs until the end of this year.
FILIPE LUÍS IS JUST WAITING FOR FINAL APPROVAL OF BAP
The only detail missing for the renewal to be official is the approval of president Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as Bap, who is responsible for authorizing investments in football. The director has already indicated that he will prioritize the renewal of contracts that expire in 2025 , such as the coach, who is considered a key player in the sports project.

Amid controversy, Pedro attracts interest from Mexican football
Club probes the striker's situation, while Mais Querido evaluates possibilities given the player's lack of performance

Representatives of striker Pedro are looking for a club that will accept the financial conditions stipulated by Flamengo. According to information from the O Globo website, Monterrey, from Mexico , participant in the last edition of the Club World Cup, carried out an informal survey about the situation of the number 9 and presented an initial value of around 10 million euros.
Despite the interest, the amount offered does not meet the expectations of the Rio de Janeiro club's board of directors , who have officially shown no intention of negotiating the player at this time. And for now, according to Gazeta do Urubu, the player also does not want to leave the club.
LITTLE USED BY FILIPE LUÍS
The reality on the field, however, could change the course of the negotiation. Pedro has been underused by coach Filipe Luís in the most important matches of the season, which raises concerns about the possible devaluation of the athlete in the market . Given this scenario, a slightly more advantageous proposal could make the board rethink the center forward's permanence in the squad.
The expectation is that the player and his representatives will also look favorably on a transfer under these conditions , especially if the scenario of few minutes continues until the end of the year.
INTERNATIONAL WINDOW CAN BE AN OPPORTUNITY
With a contract valid until 2027, Pedro was expecting a renewal this year, which, by all indications, will not happen . The next transfer window, which ends in September, is seen as a viable opportunity for the athlete to seek new horizons, especially if he continues to be outside the coaching staff's priority plans.
