This past Monday (31), América (MEX) released a statement denying that it had received any invitation from FIFA to compete for a spot in Group D of the Club World Cup. It is worth remembering that on Sunday (30), the entity announced that it is studying the possibility of holding a match between the Mexican team and LAFC (USA), to define who will be in Flamengo's group .
Thus, the match would be held to define who would replace León, a Mexican club excluded from the competition for having the same owner as another participant, Pachuca (MEX). It is worth noting that the new team will enter Flamengo's group.
SEE THE AMERICA-MEX NOTE
" Regarding recent press reports about a possible match between América and another team to determine who could qualify for the Club World Cup, it is reported:
América has not been formally notified by FIFA or any other sports authority about its possible participation in the Club World Cup," he began.
If there is any relevant information, we will be the first to make it public.
The team is focused and working to win a title in the CONCACAF Champions Cup and the Liga MX Clausura 2025 tournament ," the team announced.
FLAMENGO STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHO IT WILL FACE
With the exclusion of León, Group D of the Club World Cup currently has only three confirmed teams: Flamengo, Chelsea (ENG) and Espérance de Tunis (TUN).
Therefore, there is still no definition regarding the location and date for the possible clash between América-MEX and LAFC, which will decide the fourth member of Flamengo 's group. However, FIFA emphasized that the match still depends on legal procedures.

SALARY THAT JOHNSTON WOULD RECEIVE AT FLAMENGO
According to information from journalist Venê Casagrande, Michael would have a salary of R$646 thousand per month at Flamengo . The Irishman would also sign a contract valid for four years, that is, until July 2029. Mais Querido would pay around 5 million pounds (R$37 million) to West Bromwich (ENG).
PLAYER HAS ALREADY BEEN INFORMED ABOUT THE WITHDRAWAL
According to GE, Michael Johnston has already been informed about Flamengo's withdrawal and will no longer land in Rio de Janeiro this Tuesday (8). The player would arrive at the club to be an option to Filipe Luís and compete for a spot with Michael and Everton Cebolinha.
To justify the withdrawal, according to information from journalist Venê Casagrande, Flamengo alleges the athlete's history of injuries. The player underwent knee surgery and suffered a spinal injury. Thus, the club's medical department was unsure whether the striker would be able to handle the Brazilian calendar.

Filipe Luís has issues to resolve at Flamengo when the Brasileirão returns
Coach will have to find alternatives amid injuries and departures from the squad to put together the team that will take the field against São Paulo in the Brazilian Championship

Amid a turbulent scenario behind the scenes , Flamengo continues its preparations to face São Paulo , next Saturday (12), for the Brazilian Championship. Even with the pressures and recent changes, coach Filipe Luís remains focused and has three fundamental decisions to make in the coming days.
1. DEFINE GERSON'S SUBSTITUTE
With Gerson leaving for Zenit (Russia), Filipe Luís needs to find a new name to fill the midfielder's spot , who was an absolute starter. Versatile, Gerson played both as a second midfielder and as a right winger, which increases the complexity of the choice. The red-and-black coach will have to evaluate which tactical profile best fits the team's current situation.
2. CHOOSE THE NEW CAPTAIN
The captain's armband is also vacant. Among the main candidates are Arrascaeta and Bruno Henrique , players with more time at the club and a prominent role in the squad. However, names like Danilo and Rossi, recognized for their leadership on a day-to-day basis, also appear as viable options.
3. FIND A NEW FIRST STEERING WHEEL
In addition to Gerson, Flamengo also lost Pulgar, who underwent foot surgery and will be out for a few months. For the first midfielder position, Jorginho is the favorite — the player has even said he feels comfortable playing as a "number 5". Other options include Allan, Evertton Araújo and the young Pablo Lúcio, who worked with Filipe Luís in the youth team and could earn a place in the main squad.
FLAMENGO'S NEXT GAME
Flamengo returns to the field on Saturday (12), at 4:30 pm (Brasília time), against São Paulo, at Maracanã, for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. The match will be broadcast live on Rede Globo (open TV) and Premiere (pay-per-view) . Rubro-Negro leads the competition with 24 points, the same score as Cruzeiro, but with an advantage in goal difference (20 to 9) and with one game less than its rival from Minas Gerais.
