With the arrival of Tite as coach, Flamengo is experiencing a moment of renewal and reaffirmation of its confidence. The Rio club is looking to qualify directly for the Copa Libertadores, and one of the most anticipated matches of the Brasileirão is the clash with Palmeiras, scheduled for the 33rd round. To the delight of red and black fans, tickets for this interstate classic are now available, with prices starting from R$35.
Flamengo fan members have the privilege of purchasing tickets for the game through the "Superingresso" website, with price options ranging between R$35 and R$450. This initiative is the result of the decision of the red-black board, which opted to make popular tickets available for the remainder of the season. However, it is important to highlight that the general public will only have access to the platform from this Saturday (28th), from 10 am (Brasília time).
With the arrival of Tite, Flamengo directs its efforts for a solid campaign in the Brasileirão, aiming to secure a place in the Copa Libertadores. Currently, Mais Querido occupies fourth place on the Brazilian Championship leaderboard, within the much desired G-4. To achieve this objective, Rubro-Negro needs a sequence of victories that distances it from its opponents and guarantees its presence in the main continental club competition.
The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has already scored the long-awaited duel between Flamengo and Palmeiras for November 8th, with Maracanã as the stage for this battle. Before this clash, Mais Querido has an appointment against Santos, next Wednesday (01), for the 31st round of the Brazilian Championship. The confrontation will start at 8pm (Brasília time). Tite's arrival at Flamengo's technical command brought a new perspective and enthusiasm to the fans.
The possibility of purchasing tickets for the long-awaited classic through the "Superingresso" website represents an effort by the red-black board to make the event accessible to its fans. With prices starting at R$35, the initiative demonstrates the club's commitment to engaging its audience and providing memorable experiences. It is worth mentioning that the opening of sales to the general public will take place this Saturday, starting at 10am (Brasília time).
Tite, with his track record of success, brought new life to Flamengo, which currently is in fourth place in the Brazilian Championship. To remain in this elite group, Rubro-Negro needs consistent victories in the remaining rounds. Ensuring direct qualification for the Copa Libertadores is the ultimate objective, and the clash against Palmeiras is one of the crucial points of this journey.

Negotiations with the Argentine striker lose momentum after the transfer ban imposed on Lazio, which prevents replacement in case of departure and reinforces the player's permanence
13 Ago 2025 | 14:41 |
The Italian press has once again mentioned Taty Castellanos as a target for Flamengo, but internal sources confirm that the board is not in talks with the Lazio player. According to an investigation by Gazeta do Urubu , major signings would only happen if there was an unexpected departure or serious injury to a starter.
The obstacle is related to the punishment imposed on the Roman club, which received a transfer ban for failing to meet financial requirements. The measure prevents the registration of new players until September , making immediate replacements impossible in the event of departure negotiations.
Castellanos , who played 40 games last season and 46 the previous season , is seen as a strategic part of the squad. President Claudio Lotito assured coach Maurizio Sarri that there would be no more losses in the squad. The promise was reaffirmed by sporting director Angelo Fabiani: "I shook the coach's hand twice," he told the Italian newspaper.
According to the foreign publication, Lazio analyzed the striker's performance during a friendly against Burnley in England. Castellanos came on in the final minutes, appeared calm , and expressed no interest in leaving the club, reinforcing the board's commitment to keeping him.
In the market, Rubro-Negro is 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 evaluated, but without significant progress.
With no room for Filipe Luís and facing strong competition in attack, the 29-year-old striker has sparked interest from Al Ula, but the initial offer doesn't please the board.

Michael's departure from Flamengo is getting closer . No longer in coach Filipe Luís's plans, the 29-year-old forward faces direct competition from Bruno Henrique, Cebolinha, and newcomer Samuel Lino , which has considerably reduced his opportunities on the field.
The player's last game was a draw against Los Angeles FC on June 24th in the Club World Cup . Since then, he hasn't played again and was even left off the bench, as he did against São Paulo on July 12th. This situation raised alarm bells behind the scenes about his future at the club.
Behind the scenes, there's an understanding that a temporary release wouldn't bring significant benefits . Therefore, alternatives such as a permanent sale or another type of agreement may soon be considered.
Even though he has recovered from an ankle injury, Michael was not included in the squad for the clashes against Atlético-MG, for the Copa do Brasil, and for the game against Mirassol, for the Campeonato Brasileiro . He is also expected to miss the match against Internacional, for the Libertadores, this Wednesday (!3).
Flamengo recently received an offer from Al Ula, from Saudi Arabia, which included a one-year loan with a payment of 2.5 million dollars (approximately R$ 14 million) and an option to buy at the end of the contract.
Despite the value, the board rejected the deal because they understood that the format did not meet the club's sporting and financial interests.
Teams finish training this Tuesday before the decisive clash at Maracanã, valid for the round of 16 of the Libertadores
13 Ago 2025 | 13:40 |
Internacional, led by Roger Machado, already has a defined base for the duel this Wednesday (13), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, against Flamengo. The probable Colorado lineup includes: Rochet; Aguirre, Vitão, Juninho and Bernabei; Thiago Maia, Alan Rodríguez, Tabata, Alan Patrick and Wesley; Ricardo Mathias.
In the Brazilian Championship victory over Red Bull Bragantino, Alan Benítez and Clayton Sampaio started, but they should start on the bench this time around. The defense should consist of Aguirre and Vitão, gaining more consistency in that area.
Flamengo's likely formation is based on the one used last Saturday (09), against Mirassol, in the Brasileirão: Rossi; Royal (or Varela), Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Allan (or Evertton Araújo) and Jorginho; Luiz Araújo, Plata, Pedro (or Bruno Henrique) and Samuel Lino.
The main news is Jorginho's return to the starting lineup after serving a suspension in the Brasileirão victory over Mirassol. Arrascaeta, on the other hand, will be a significant absence, missing precisely the decisive stage of the continental tournament.
After Wednesday's clash, Rubro-Negro and Colorado will face each other again on August 20th , at the same time, in Porto Alegre, at the Beira-Rio stadium. Between Libertadores matches, the teams will play on Sunday, for the Brasileirão, also on Rio Grande do Sul soil.
