After Juventus put Pogba on the market for 10 million euros, Rubro-Negros fans were the first to ask for the signing of the French star. Now, the Italian press confirms that Flamengo is interested in the player.
According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Mais Querido is one of the clubs that is thinking of taking advantage of Juventus' 'balance' this summer.
< p>It is worth remembering that Pogba has already appeared several times with the Fla shirt, showing affection for the club.
The Italian team did not manage to have a good season, finishing Serie A in 7th place, with 62 points, and is out of the next edition of the Champions League. Pogba was unable to repeat the good performances he had with the Italian team in 2017.
With a dominant performance and goals from Leane and Brendha, the red-black team wins the classic, remains at the top of group A and is close to early qualification.

Flamengo once again demonstrated its strength in the Brasileirão Women's Under-20 Championship, defeating Fluminense 2-0 in this round of the Rio derby. With goals from Leane and Brendha, the red-and-black team secured its fourth consecutive victory and remained in sole command of Group A with a 100% record.
In the first minute, Flamengo pressed the opposition's ball out and forced a mistake from the Tricolor defense. Leane seized the opportunity and opened the scoring. Shortly after, Emilly sprinted past two defenders and hit the post. Nicoli had a chance to extend the lead from the rebound, but the ball went wide.
In the 20th minute of the first half, after a beautiful pass from Leane, Brendha found herself unmarked and finished with precision past the goalkeeper, extending the lead. Mengão continued to control the game and went into the break with a clear lead and confidence.
In the second half, the team maintained its attacking rhythm. Emilly took a dangerous free kick after just three minutes, nearly scoring the third. In the 10th minute, Laura Mariah crossed from the byline to Bruna, who set up Emilly for another shot, forcing a great save from the opposing goalkeeper. Cerqueira then hit the crossbar with a beautiful shot.
On defense, defender Duda Mattos stood out for her solid performance, ensuring stability throughout the match. With this result, "Mais Querido" now has 12 points , practically sealing its place in the next phase of the competition, with two rounds remaining.
The Flamengo team's next match will be this Thursday (17), against Mixto-MT, away from home. The expectation is for another good performance from the team , which is experiencing a great moment in the national youth competition.

Flamengo's squad continues its preparations for the season's upcoming matches. According to team doctor Fernando Sassaki, only one player from the main squad remains out of action at the moment: midfielder Erick Pulgar, who recently underwent surgery on his right foot after a serious injury suffered at the Club World Cup . In an interview with 'Flamengo TV,' Sassaki provided details about the player's current condition and recovery.
" So far, we have most of the players fit, except for Erick Pulgar, who suffered a fractured fifth metatarsal. Our department recommended the surgery, and it was performed. The surgery went well, without any complications. We spoke with the doctor who performed the procedure and with the athlete. He is now resting and returning to rehabilitation," the professional said.
The injury that forced Pulgar to leave the field occurred during the Club World Cup Round of 16 match against Bayern Munich. The number 5 was involved in a collision with England striker Harry Kane and ended up getting the worst of it . While still on the field, the Chilean received initial medical attention and was soon taken to a hospital for further examination.
The surgical procedure was performed last Thursday (03), in Chile, the athlete's home country. Pulgar chose to undergo the operation with the medical team that has been with him since the beginning of his career, which provided greater safety for the player during the process. According to the medical department's estimates, the midfielder's return to the field should occur between September and October, depending on the progress of his recovery.
While Pulgar continues to recover, coach Filipe Luís is taking advantage of training to adjust the final details of the team that will face São Paulo next Saturday (12), in the Brazilian Championship.
