FIND OUT HOW MUCH FLAMENGO CAN MAKE WITH THE FUTURE SALE OF VINICIUS SOUZA, WHICH IS INTERESTING FOR THE ITALIAN GIANT

A former Flamengo target in the primeira window of the year, is almost certainly a rival from Rio. This is because Botafogo overcame previous difficulties with Udinese and is still in the process of signing Matheus Martins, a 21-year-old striker. The operation will cost 10 million euros (R$ 60 million), with a further 2 million euros in bonuses, for 90% of the attacker's economic rights.

Only the athlete's signature separates the negotiation from being assured officially, but both parties already consider the operation as done.

Flamengo even negotiated with the striker, while he was on vacation in Rio de Janeiro. Some meetings took place, but there was no agreement with the Europeans. Another point was that at the time of the red-black attack, the player had the desire to continue in Europe.

So far, the rubro-negro< /a> has not signed any players since the start of the transfer window. The attempts with midfielder Marcos Antônio were unsuccessful and the Rio club ended up taking a beating from São Paulo, which signed the player. So far, the only name in which Flamengo is negotiating is with midfielder Claudinho, from Zenit, in Russia. Despite the Russians' tough game, everything is fine between the player and Flamengo.

Last Wednesday (24), striker Carlinhos secured three points for Flamengo over Vitória. Due to his way of celebrating, the player received the nickname "Bellingham da Gávea" from the red-black fans. Thus, the athlete commented on the joke.

"For me: Ronaldo, Romário and Adriano, I'm a big fan of them and I always try to imitate them. I know there's a lot missing. And I like the fans because they're creative: “it's Adriano Imperador's Avatar”, “Bellingham da Gávea”… That's cool. Here, for the guys, I'm the “thunder” because a partner of mine said: “Can I make a stop at your boot”? forget it", he said, in an interview with FlaTV.

In addition to commenting on the fans' joke, Carlinhos also spoke about the meaning of the way he celebrates goals as a Flamengo player.

"I came from an evangelical family, and at home there were a lot of evangelical films. Even though my name is Carlos Moisés, I always liked the opposite side, which is Pharaoh Ramses . My mother would scold me, I would put my hand on my waist (laughs)", he said, before finishing:

"When I grew up, I always did this to her: “Mom, Ramses has arrived”. In this review I told my brothers that this was going to be the celebration. My posture was stupid, but it was more to provoke my mother. This position he takes is one of authority, a bit harshly, I identified with the celebration", he concluded.

So, with Carlinhos at his disposal, Flamengo started preparation for the clash against Atlético-GO this Friday afternoon (26). The game will be on Sunday (28), valid for the 20th round of the Brasileirão, at 4pm.

In the most recent edition of the Seleção Sportv program, on Canalis Globo, the selection of the best players for the first round of the Brazilian Championship was announced. The team, made up of 11 athletes who stood out in their positions, included Pedro, the number 9 of Flamengo. The choice sparked debate among commentators and football fans, raising the question: did Flamengo deserve more players on this list?

Pedro, Flamengo, secured his place in the first round selection thanks to his exceptional performance. With decisive goals and a constant presence in attack, he became a fundamental piece in coach Jorge Sampaoli's tactical scheme. His finishing ability and intelligence inside the box made the difference in several matches, consolidating his position as one of the main scorers in the championship so far.

FLAMENGO HAS A "BIG 9" 

Besides Pedro, the first round selection includes players from different teams, highlighting the diversity and balance of the Brazilian Championship. Players from Palmeiras, Atlético-MG, and Fluminense were also present, reflecting the competitiveness and talent distributed among Series A clubs.

The inclusion of just one Flamengo player in the first round selection raised questions between fans and analysts. With a star-studded squad and solid performance so far, many expected to see more Rubro-Negro players being recognized. During the program, Seleção Sportv commentators discussed the criteria for choosing players. They highlighted the individual performance and influence of each athlete on their respective teams.
