Flamengo has become one of the main models in the Americas when it comes to training athletes. Between 2019 and 2023, Rubro-Negro is the club that invested the most in the youth categories. In total, in the last five years, R$171 million were injected.
According to the Summoned Report, Flamengo invested R$27 million more than second place in the youth categories. In other words, Grêmio and São Paulo appear tied for second place on the list, with R$144 million invested, by each of them, from 2019 to 2023.

One of the details is that only five Brazilian clubs injected more than R$100 million into the player training. However, it is worth remembering that the Summoned Report takes into account the values officially presented by the Brasileirão Series A teams.
With the base that receives the most investment in Brazil, Flamengo reaped some fruits between 2019 and 2023. That's because Rubro-Negro sold offspring to European football. These are the cases of names like Reinier (Real Madrid-ESP), Matheus França (Crystal Palace-ING) and João Gomes (Wolverhampton-ING).
Flamengo's youth football also wins important titles, in addition to revealing young people. Therefore, Rubro-Negro won the 2023 Brasileirão U20 and won the Libertadores U20 for the first time in history, at the beginning of 2024. Therefore, Ninho do Urubu is one of the main breeding grounds for world football stars. .
The club raised R$518.4 million in sales, spent R$309 million on signings and expects historic revenue of over R$1.7 billion by the end of the year.

Flamengo closed the mid-2025 transfer window with intense market activity. The balance sheet released by the board shows that the club raised more than it invested , strengthening its cash flow and strengthening its squad.
R$518.4 million was received from the departure of seven players , including important names such as Gerson (R$160.6 million), Wesley (R$162.2 million) and Fabrício Bruno (R$44 million). At the same time, the club continued to sign strategic players, projecting to close the year with revenue exceeding R$1.7 billion.
The biggest sale of the window was Wesley, who netted the club R$162.2 million. Besides him, Charly Alcaraz (R$96 million) and Matheus Gonçalves (R$50 million) also left the team , totaling significant sums. Loans and other transfers rounded out the list of moves that helped bolster the club's coffers.
Despite significant departures, the board remained focused on strengthening the squad. In total, seven signings were made for 2025, three of which were free: Danilo, Jorginho, and Saúl Ñiguez.
The biggest investment was Samuel Lino, acquired for R$143 million in a historic deal for the club. Besides him, Emerson Royal (R$58 million), Jorge Carrascal (R$77 million), and Juninho (R$31 million) completed the list of paid reinforcements.
Even with the punishment of a 12-game suspension and a fine of R$60,000, the club is not expected to go to the market in search of a striker, trusting in the current squad.

Despite the suspension imposed on striker Bruno Henrique , Flamengo will not make any moves in the market to find an immediate replacement. The board was already considering the possibility of losing the player and believes there are enough options within the squad to maintain the team's performance.
According to a report by Gazeta do Urubu , coach Filipe Luís believes Pedro has reached his best physical form and can assume a greater offensive role. Furthermore, Gonzalo Plata and Wallace Yan are seen as viable alternatives to fill the position , while Juninho is expected to be reinstated in the squad for the next rounds of the Brasileirão.
The Superior Court of Sports Justice sentenced Bruno Henrique this Thursday (29) to a 12-game suspension and a fine of R$60,000. The decision is valid for national competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil, but does not, for now, affect the Libertadores.
However, the case is expected to be referred to FIFA. If the governing body agrees to extend the ban, the striker will also be barred from international matches , increasing the impact of the punishment for Mengão.
The process began after suspicions of manipulation related to a yellow card received by Bruno Henrique in the match against Santos, held at the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, on November 1, 2023.
According to the investigation, the player allegedly provided advance notice of the warning, which benefited his brother, Wander, who then passed the information on to third parties involved in sports betting. The investigation led to a disciplinary decision by the Superior Court of Justice (STJD), which may now have repercussions in international courts.
After four days of rest, the red-black squad returns to training at Ninho do Urubu under the command of Filipe Luís and begins preparations for the away match.

After four days off , the Flamengo squad returned to activities this Friday (5), at Ninho do Urubu, under the command of Filipe Luís. The team is preparing for the next commitment in the Brazilian Championship , scheduled for September 14, against Juventude, in Caxias do Sul.
The group returned at 3:30 pm (Brasília time), at the Training Center in Vargem Grande . On Saturday (6), the work will be carried out in the morning, at 9:30 am, with the same schedule repeated on Sunday (7).
Filipe Luís will be tasked with adjusting the team for the match against Juventude at Alfredo Jaconi. Despite the technical differences between the teams and their good form in the tournament, Flamengo doesn't have a favorable record when facing the Gauchos away from home.
Their last away win came in 1997, when they won 1-0 in the Brasileirão . Since then, Mengão has lost seven and drawn six in Rio Grande do Sul. The match at Juventude's home ground has always been a difficult one.
Currently, the red-and-black team leads the national competition, with 47 points from 21 matches, with 14 wins , five draws, and only two losses. Juventude, on the other hand, is facing a difficult time, occupying 18th place with 21 points, achieved through six wins, three draws, and 12 losses.
