Flamengo has taken an important step towards ensuring the continuity of one of the pillars of the current squad . The club has reached a preliminary agreement to renew the contract of goalkeeper Agustín Rossi until the end of 2028. The new contract is already in the formalization phase and, according to journalist Julio Miguel Neto , the official announcement should happen later this month. The agreement includes a salary increase, recognizing the regularity and performance of the Argentine since he took over as a starter.
The move comes amid other important decisions by the board, led by José Boto. Rossi arrived at Flamengo in 2022 and established himself as a starter with solid performances, good reading of the game and confidence in the game with his feet . At 29 years old, the goalkeeper has played 107 matches with the red-and-black shirt and has already lifted four trophies for the club: two Campeonato Carioca (2024 and 2025), one Supercopa do Brasil (2025) and the Copa Betano do Brasil (2024).
Since the start of the current season, he has remained a regular starter and has been praised by fans, members of the coaching staff and analysts of Brazilian football. Since taking office, José Boto has been working on parallel fronts in the market. While seeking reinforcements, the sporting director also works to ensure that the main names in the squad stay for longer. Rossi's renewal is part of this strategy.
In the eyes of the board, the Argentine goalkeeper is a key player not only for his performance on the field, but also for his attitude in the locker room and his technical leadership in the defensive sector. Rossi's new contract with Flamengo will include a salary increase, the amount of which has not been revealed, but it will be compatible with the player's importance in the squad. The recognition comes at a good time, at a time when the club is trying to maintain its consolidated base and avoid players leaving for the foreign market.
With the new agreement, the goalkeeper will be among the highest paid in the group, alongside other starters in the team led by Filipe Luís . Since arriving at Ninho do Urubu, Rossi has maintained a high average of consistent performances. His ability to make decisions in big games, especially in the knockout stages, has been decisive for the red-blacks' sequence of victories in the last two seasons.
With Emerson Royal injured and the expectation of De La Cruz's return, Mais Querido faces Colorado in Porto Alegre for the Brasileirão

This Sunday (17), at 6:30 pm (Brasília time) , Mengão visits Internacional at Beira-Rio for the 20th round of the Brazilian Championship Series A. Flamengo arrives at the clash with 40 points in 17 games , occupying the leadership of the competition.
Cruzeiro, with 37 points from 19 matches, is the only team that can get closer in the standings this round . Internacional, meanwhile, has 24 points and sits in 11th place before kick-off. This is a crucial matchup for both teams.
According to the week's training sessions, Flamengo 's likely lineup is: Rossi; Varela, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Allan, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Luiz Araújo, Samuel Lino (Cebolinha) and Pedro.
Coach Filipe Luís is expected to make changes to the lineup, as has been common during his tenure. Emerson Royal sprained his left ankle during last Wednesday's game (13) at Maracanã and is unable to play. Varela will be the replacement at right-back and is expected to take over the position.
Another point of concern is De La Cruz's situation. The midfielder has been sidelined since July due to left knee pain , but he's expected to be included on the bench, having traveled south with the Mais Querido team.

This Sunday (17), at 10:30 am (Brasília time), Palmeiras and Flamengo face each other at Arena Barueri for the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Brazilian Women's Championship. The match will be broadcast live on TV Globo, Sportv and TV Brasil , as well as in real time on ge.
In the first leg, Flamengo won 3-2, earning their first victory against Palmeiras in women's soccer history. Djeni opened and closed the scoring, while Jucinara scored the second goal for Flamengo. For Flamengo, Tainá Maranhão scored twice. The result gives the Meninas da Gávea the advantage of a draw on aggregate. If Palmeiras recovers the one-goal deficit, the match will go to penalties.
Until the first leg, the teams' head-to-head record showed a clear advantage for Palmeiras, with seven meetings between them, all of which went to Palmeiras. The red-and-black victory at Gávea broke that record and raised expectations for a tight duel in São Paulo.
In addition to a spot in the semifinals, the competition also involves the battle for top scorer. Palmeiras' Amanda Gutierres leads with 15 goals, while Flamengo 's Cristiane is third with nine . Neither of them scored in the first game, but they remain individual standouts.
Mengão will face an important challenge against Colorado at Beira-Rio and wants a victory to remain isolated at the top of the Brazilian Championship.
