Boys from Ninho are in Group B and debut this Monday

The basis of Flamengo is proving to be one of the best in the country every day. In addition to revealing big names to wear the red and black shirt, the "crias" have helped by being financial assets for the club. In this sense, the Ninho boys have one more tournament ahead of them.
The U15 team is looking for their second NP Cup championship, in São Paulo, and met their group stage opponents last night (19). Mais Querido is in Group B, and will face Atlético-MG, RB Bragantino and São Paulo. The debut takes place at 10:15 am this Monday (20), against the Minas Gerais team.
The Boys from the Nest traveled yesterday to Itu, where they will be concentrated for the matches that will be held at the Desportivo Brasil Training Center. The second game of the team led by Vinicius Durante will be against RB Bragantino, on Tuesday (21) at 11:30.
The last round foresees the confrontation between Flamengo and São Paulo, on Wednesday (22) also 11:30. The best placed teams advance to the stage and face the teams from group A, which are made up of Athletico-PR, Fluminense, Fortaleza and Palmeiras.
The last time Flamengo lifted the competition cup was in 2018 , with the 2003 generation being led by Mario Jorge. In 2024, Vinicius Durante will have the chance again, now with the 2009 generation. In 2024, the category won the first international trophy of the season, when they won the IberCup Cascais in Portugal, last month. Get at him, kids!

This Saturday morning (7), Flamengo faced Nova Iguaçu and won 2-0, in the first game of the quarter-finals of the Carioca U20. The team led by Filipe Luís opened a good lead for the second leg. The goals of the match were scored by Guilherme and Wallace Yan.
In the qualifying phase, Mais Querido, despite sharing the spotlight with the Brasileirão under-20 and preparing for the World Cup, had a good campaign. Rubro-Negro advanced in second place, with 26 points from 11 games. Winning eight matches, drawing two and losing only once.
Mixing the team between the main team and the reserves during the competition, the team also had alternation between coaches. This is because Rafael Bahia led Rubro-Negro in the Carioca under-20 and Filipe Luís led the team in the Brasileirão and World Cup in the category.
Now, Mais Querido returns to the field next Saturday (14), in the return match of the quarter-finals of the Carioca under-20. By having a 2-0 lead on the scoreboard, Rubro-Negro can lose by up to a goal difference and will advance to the semi-finals. The game will be at 9:30 am, in Gávea.
Player was decisive in the Libertadores title

Nigerian striker Elija Shola renewed his residence visa, guaranteeing his stay in Brazil for another five years. The renewal of the permission was requested by Flamengo to the Federal Government. Furthermore, the player signed a new contract with the club, which is now valid until the end of 2027.
Although Shola has not yet debuted for Flamengo's professional team, he was listed for the classic against Flamengo. Botafogo, which ended with a 4-1 defeat at the Nilton Santos stadium. The striker was one of the highlights of Flamengo's under-20 team, which won the Libertadores and Intercontinental in the category.
Last month, Flamengo reached an agreement with Remo Stars, Shola's former club , purchasing 70% of the athlete's economic rights for 450 thousand dollars. The 19-year-old Nigerian has been on loan at Flamengo since April 2023. His last residence visa was valid for six months and expired in September 2024.
Shola was first scouted during the Viareggio Cup 2022, traditional grassroots tournament held in the Tuscany region, in Italy. He stood out as one of the main figures of his team, helping them reach the final of the tournament. Following this observation, Flamengo sent a scout to Nigeria to evaluate him again, confirming his signing shortly afterwards.
