The Flamengo The team traveled to Uruguay shortly after the completion of training at the training center, with all players listed for the duel. The expectation is for a difficult game, but Flamengo has shown consistency throughout the season, and Tite is betting on a solid strategy to overcome the traditional Uruguayan club. THE CLUB HAS ITS PREPARATION MOMENT The Flamengochose to hold its last training session on Uruguayan soil, a decision that aims to adapt the players to local conditions, such as climate and pitch, in addition to allowing greater focus on tactical planning for the confrontation against Peñarol. CT Luís Suárez, located in Canelones, was the location chosen for this last phase of preparation, being a modern facility that offered the necessary structure for the work of the technical committee. During the training, Tite maintained focus on tactical and technical guidance, reviewing rehearsed plays and submissions. The defense, a sector that has been worked on a lot by the coach since he took charge, received special attention. With a solid defensive base, Flamengo has managed to avoid mistakes that in the past compromised some decisive matches.

Uruguayan Giorgian De Arrascaeta has once again made his mark in the recent history of the Brazilian Championship . In the 8-0 rout of Vitória at Maracanã, Flamengo's number 10 scored one goal and provided two assists, reaching the mark of 11 goals and 10 decisive passes in this edition of the tournament.
The performance secured another double-double for the midfielder, a rare statistic in Brazilian football that combines double-digit goals and assists in the same season. Arrascaeta had already achieved this feat in the historic 2019 campaign under Jorge Jesus , and now he equals Jadson as the only players to repeat the feat in two separate editions.
Since the adoption of the points-based format in 2003, only 16 athletes have reached this level. Among them are big names like Alex, Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Jonas, Hulk, and Luis Suárez . The Uruguayan's distinguishing feature is precisely his consistency: he is the only foreigner on the list and the first to achieve the feat in two seasons. The survey was conducted by journalist Rodolfo Rodrigues.
With 18 games remaining in the Brasileirão, Arrascaeta needs just two goals and four assists to match his 2019 campaign (13 goals and 14 assists). Maintaining his current average, he should reach these figures in approximately six games.
The rout against Vitória also yielded other significant achievements. Arrascaeta became the top assist maker in the history of the Brasileirão, reaching 78 officially recorded decisive passes . He also scored his 50th goal at the Maracanã stadium, reaching the 89-goal mark for the red-and-black team.
The performance brings the Uruguayan closer to Doval, the Argentine idol who scored 94 goals for Flamengo between 1969 and 1975. Now, Arrascaeta is just five goals away from equaling that historic mark , and could solidify his position as the club's top foreign scorer this season.
The midfielder may be living his last days in the West Ham shirt and big teams in England are keeping an eye on the situation.

Called up to the Brazilian national team, Flamengo midfielder Lucas Paquetá has once again attracted interest from European clubs . Cleared of gambling allegations, the Brazilian has resumed his career and is now a target for Tottenham , according to talkSport radio.
The London club's interest comes after two recent losses: Eberechi Eze, transferred to Arsenal, and James Maddison, who was injured . Paquetá appears to be an option to bolster the creative department. However, there are conflicting reports in the English media. The Guardian reports that Manchester City, which previously attempted to sign Paquetá, remains interested. Crystal Palace is also keen on the Brazilian midfielder.
West Ham, Paquetá's current club, had a difficult start to the Premier League, with two losses and eight goals conceded. In the English League Cup, they lost to Wolves, who finished second to last. Paquetá stands out as the main player on the pitch, but he faces difficulties communicating with his teammates . Therefore, the English board must negotiate cautiously, and is estimated to accept no less than R$220 million for the midfielder's sale.
In addition to the English market, Paquetá will have another opportunity to increase his value with the Brazilian national team. After being cleared of match-fixing charges, the former Flamengo player was called up by Carlo Ancelotti for the final two rounds of the World Cup qualifiers .
The midfielder returns to the national team for the first time since November last year, when he came on in the 1-1 draw against Uruguay . He will now face Chile (September 4, at the Maracanã) and Bolivia (September 9, in El Alto), marking his first contact with Ancelotti.

Flamengo invested heavily in this transfer window , bringing in four key reinforcements: Samuel Lino, Emerson Royal, Carrascal, and Saúl. These signings attracted attention in the transfer market, and one of those who spoke out was Ronaldo Fenômeno , a World Cup winner with the Brazilian national team. In an interview with Betfair, the former striker particularly highlighted Samuel Lino and Emerson Royal.
Ronaldo Fenômeno on Flamengo's signings: "a reflection of good management"
"Lino's signing shows that Flamengo is in good financial health, reflecting good management and sales that have a positive impact on the club. He's young and could have gone to several European clubs after leaving Atlético Madrid, but he chose to sign with Flamengo . He'll bring international experience and will make a big difference in the Copa Libertadores and the Brasileirão," he said.
Regarding Emerson Royal, Ronaldo also praised him and projected benefits for the full-back compared to the national team. " He's another player who could have stayed in Europe, but chose to play in Brazil . This could be very good, since he played in the last Copa América and could be closer to Ancelotti's attention in a very important position for Brazil, which is right-back," he added.
The hype surrounding the Flamengo's number 16 soon proved justified. In the 8-0 rout of Vitória in the Brazilian Championship, Samuel Lino was one of the night's standout performers . The forward scored two goals and provided three assists, quickly demonstrating the impact he can have on Filipe Luís's squad.
Unlike Lino, Emerson Royal did not enter the field at Maracanã last Monday (25). The right-back remained on the bench, following the safe performance of Varela , who assisted one of Samuel Lino's goals.
Even though he hasn't entered the field in the last few matches, the defender is seen internally as an important player for the rest of the season , especially due to the busy schedule with commitments in the Brasileirão, Libertadores and Copa do Brasil.
