In the world of sports, references and inspirations are essential for the development of professionals. And, for Rafael Guanaes, coach of Mirassol, two names linked to Flamengo have had a great influence on his career: Bernardinho, multi-champion volleyball player and current coach of Sesc Flamengo who is preparing for a new season at the club , and former Flamengo coach Tite.
Rafael Guanaes on Bernardinho, from Sesc Flamengo: "He is a totally inspiring leader"
In an interview with 'ge', Guanaes, who is making his debut in the Série A of the Brazilian Championship, highlighted his admiration for Bernardinho, praising the coach's leadership and winning mentality. “I really like Bernardinho. He is a totally inspiring leader, a great winner ”, said the Mirassol coach, highlighting the coach's impact also in charge of the Sesc Flamengo women's volleyball team.
In football, despite a recent lackluster stint at Flamengo, Tite was also cited as an example . Guanaes praised the coach's record of winning titles with the Brazilian national team and national clubs. "I can put Tite on that list too. He's a guy I really like, I've always admired him," he added.
Guanaes also mentioned other important names as sources of inspiration , such as the new coach of the Brazilian National Team, Carlo Ancelotti, as well as Pep Guardiola and the legendary Phil Jackson, a reference in North American basketball and coach of Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls.
Flamengo already knows the dates of the clashes against Mirassol in the 2025 Brasileirão. In a good campaign, the São Paulo team is one of the surprises of the season , occupying ninth place, with 17 points and one game less.
The first duel will take place on August 9th, at Maracanã, for the 19th round. The rematch is scheduled for December 21st , in the last round of the competition, with Mirassol as the host — a match that could be decisive for both clubs.

Sesc Flamengo continues to strengthen itself for the 2025/2026 season and announced the arrival of American winger Simone Lee . The 28-year-old athlete landed in Rio de Janeiro this Friday (15), accompanied by her husband, and shared a video on social media recording her arrival in the Marvelous City.

Flamengo announced this Wednesday (13) that it has terminated its sponsorship agreement with Pixbet . The contract, valid from January 2024, was for two years (until December), with the possibility of automatic renewal for two more seasons — a clause that should be activated in September.
Expected values with PixBet:
The agreement also included FlaBet, Flamengo's own betting house, managed by PixBet:
The favorite to take over Flamengo's master sponsorship , SuperBet, faces stiff competition from Betano. The club has not yet decided on a new partner, but expects to sign a contract starting in September. Both companies have submitted three-year proposals, with values exceeding R$200 million per season and bonuses for targets, which could make the deal even more lucrative.
According to the ge portal, SuperBet's offer would surpass the contract signed with São Paulo, valued at R$600 million through 2030 , and could reach R$1 billion once the goals are met. Flamengo is working to make the new deal the largest sponsorship in Brazilian football.
The relationship began to strain after delays in installment payments, a situation the company admitted, acknowledging difficulties in honoring upcoming commitments . There are indications that PixBet will not exercise the renewal clause and will leave the club.
Flamengo 's board of directors wants to end the partnership in September so that the new sponsor can take over the uniforms immediately. PixBet is pleased with this possibility due to the outstanding amounts , but if an amicable agreement isn't reached, the termination will only take place in December, as stipulated in the contract.
Besides SuperBet and Betano, other bookmakers approached the club but withdrew due to the high fees required. If PixBet's exit is confirmed, the next sponsor will need to cover not only the master contract but also the corresponding amount for FlaBet .

Flamengo has gained a high-speed "reinforcement." Four-time Formula 1 world champion Sebastian Vettel received a club shirt autographed by Zico , the greatest idol in the club's history. The delivery took place last Monday (11), during the opening dinner of Rio Innovation Week.
Vettel, who retired from Formula 1 in 2022, is in Brazil to participate in the event that discusses technology and innovation with a focus on sustainability, a cause he embraced even before leaving the track . The event also features other athletes, such as gymnast Rebeca Andrade, who represents Flamengo .
Vettel isn't the only driver to wear the Sacred Mantle. Brazilian Gabriel Bortoleto, currently in Formula 1, appeared wearing the Flamengo jersey in a photo before his debut in the category. At the time, he had won a race in Austria in Formula 2.
On the current Formula 1 grid, Max Verstappen is a Vasco fan due to the influence of his father-in-law, three-time champion Nelson Piquet . Meanwhile, British driver Lando Norris received a Palmeiras jersey in 2023 and has adopted the jersey as his trademark ever since.
Flamengo takes the field this Wednesday (13) in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores against Internacional. The match will be at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã . The match will be broadcast by Rede Globo (open TV), ESPN (closed TV) and Disney+ (streaming).
