Flamengo will take the field this Tuesday (02) for their debut in the Copa Libertadores da América. For the clash against Millonarios (COL), Tite will have to deal with three confirmed absences. That's because Gabigol, Gerson and Wesley were not part of the red-black delegation that traveled.
Gabigol will not be able to participate in the game, as he is serving a suspension due to a conviction for attempted drug test fraud. As a result, the attacker received a two-year penalty, counting from the date of collection, in April 2023, and is an absence from Tite's team.
On the other hand, Gerson is in the process of recovery surgery due to renal hydronephrosis. The number 8 player returned to activities at Ninho do Urubu, however, gradually and is not yet ready to return to the pitch. The third absence, Wesley, suffered a muscle injury to his thigh adductor.
Faced with the three absences, Flamengo< /a> prepares to face Millonarios. The match will take place this Tuesday (02), at 7pm (Brasília time), at the Nemesio Camacho Stadium, known as El Campín, for the first round of the Libertadores group stage.

Protagonist in Flamengo's U-20 world championship , won last Saturday (23), defender Iago entered the radar of European clubs. According to information from the “GE” portal, teams such as Everton and Brentford, from England , as well as Club Brugge, from Belgium, carried out inquiries for the player.
Despite the interest, none of these teams have formalized an offer. The only concrete offer received so far came from Bahia, at the request of coach Rogério Ceni. The northeastern club submitted a proposal of €2 million (approximately R$12.8 million) , in addition to offering a 20% stake in a future sale. Bahia, however, declined the offer and reiterated that Iago is not available for negotiations.
Iago was decisive in the final against Barcelona (ESP) at the Maracanã Stadium. Mengão was trailing 2-1 and the title seemed to be slipping away, until, in the final minutes, Daniel Sales sent a long ball into the box. The ball found Iago's head, which he lobbed over the goalkeeper, taking the decision to penalties , where the Rio de Janeiro team secured the title.
At 20, Iago still has important commitments in the U-20 category before a possible transition to the main squad. In 2025, he will compete in the U-20 Carioca Championship and the U-20 Copa do Brasil. His successful career includes titles such as the U-17 Copa do Brasil, the U-17 Supercopa do Brasil, the U-20 Brazilian Championship, the U-20 South American Championship, and two U-20 Libertadores titles.
The defender's current contract runs until December 2026, and Flamengo is expected to renew his contract to keep him in the long-term project . However, the situation is being monitored by Volta Redonda, the club that developed Iago in the U-15s and still holds 40% of his economic rights. Currently, Flamengo owns 60% and is considering acquiring an additional 10% for approximately R$500,000.
