DO YOU TRUST? GALVÃO BUENO APPOINS PERFECT COACH FOR FLAMENGO

Flamengo and Lazio advanced in negotiations to sign midfielder Marcos Antônio. The player, who has already accepted the Rio club's offer, should be signed on loan with an obligation to buy if certain goals are achieved. However, there are still disagreements regarding the triggers and final values ​​of the operation, according to information from the GE website.

It is agreed that Flamengo will pay an amount for the one-year loan, which will be deducted if the club opts to definitively purchase the player. . The figures for the definitive purchase are being discussed, with expectations of values ​​between 5 and 6 million euros, in addition to bonuses.

The main divergence between the clubs is in the clause that obliges Flamengo to buy the player if he participates in 50% of the games during the loan period. Flamengo and Lazio are still debating what the definition of participation in games will be: whether it will only count appearance, ownership, or the number of minutes played (45 or 90 minutes on the field).

Flamengo prefers that the purchase trigger be related to ownership or the condition of the player playing for 90 minutes. If the goal is not met, the purchase option will be the choice of the Rio club. Despite the impasse, Flamengo is confident that it will find a satisfactory agreement with Lazio and will have Marcos Antônio as a reinforcement in the next transfer window.

Marcos Antônio, 24 years old, is a creation of Athletico-PR's youth teams and a contemporary of Vini Jr in the youth teams. The midfielder has spent time at Estoril, in Portugal, and Shakhtar Donetsk, in Ukraine. He was bought by Lazio in 2023 and loaned to PAOK, from Greece, last season, where he was national champion.

Former BBB member Gabi Martins and federal deputy Euclydes Pettersen were spotted together at a wedding party in Governador Valadares, in the interior of Minas Gerais. The singer and the politician were photographed side by side in a selfie taken by other guests at the event. So far, Gabi Martins has not spoken openly about the relationship and prefers not to post anything about the subject on social media.

In January, the newspaper EXTRA revealed the affair between the two, highlighting that they spent the year new together in Pernambuco, accompanied by friends. The trip extended to Caraíva and Trancoso, in Bahia, including a helicopter ride. After the trip, Gabi returned to Nova Lima, in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, where she lives with her family. Euclydes, in turn, divides himself between the capital of Minas Gerais and Governador Valadares, his hometown.

In February, when asked about her relationship with the deputy, Gabi declined to talk. "I'm single, working, focused on my career. I spent Carnival busy, fulfilling a schedule", stated the ex-BBB. Gabi has not been in a relationship since she broke up with gamer Lincoln Lau, in March 2023, after three months together. At the time, she claimed to have been cheated on, while Lincoln claimed to have been attacked by his ex-girlfriend.

Despite public appearances, Gabi Martins maintains discretion about her relationship with Euclydes Pettersen. So far, she has not made any posts about the affair, preferring to focus on her musical career and professional projects.

Flamengo idol, Diego Ribas expressed great admiration for Vini Jr, Real Madrid striker, and expressed his support for the number 7 to win the Ballon d'Or this year. According to Diego, Vini Jr not only demonstrated exceptional individual skills, but also contributed significantly to the team's collective success.

"He deserves the Ballon d'Or for what he did. Not only individually, but also collectively. He is a player ready to lead. He overcame many difficulties and shone. He is ready to be the leader of the Brazilian team, assume this responsibility", said the former player in an interview with the Spanish newspaper 'As'.

Vini Jr was one of Real Madrid's highlights in their campaign for their 15th Champions League title. The striker scored the second goal in the final against Borussia Dortmund, guaranteeing the 2-0 victory and sealing the title for the Merengue club.

In the Brazilian team, Vini Jr seeks to consolidate himself as the main name, especially in the absence of Neymar. Diego Ribas believes that, once Neymar returns to the pitch, the combination of their talents will make Brazil an unstoppable team. "Good players help each other", highlighted Diego.

Currently, Vini Jr is with the Brazilian team in the United States to compete in the Copa América. Brazil will face Paraguay this Friday (28), at 10pm (Brasília time), at the Allegiant Stadium, in Nevada. In their debut, the team led by Dorival Júnior failed to win and drew goalless with Costa Rica.
