Marcos Braz and Bruno Spindel are in Europe to try to continue hiring new reinforcements. One of these players is striker Luiz Henrique, who plays for Betis (ESP). The athlete has already given authorization for Mais Querido to move forward. But the Spanish club has been playing hard.


Ángel Hro, president of Betis, commented on the movements in the transfer market for Luiz Henrique. The desire for the attacker is strong. Not only Flamengo, but also Fluminense and Corinthians, are keeping an eye on the athlete. The agent was also asked if Betis is considering releasing the player's transfer.


“Well, the club has to be aware of the options that are given, regardless of any specific name. In the case of Luiz Henrique or any other name, when there is an option to leave, he first talks to the player, to his agent. Then, of course, with the coach to see how he values ​​this departure. So the club also has to assess whether these values ​​that can be given are reasonable”, he explained.


Still according to Ágel, there is no rush to negotiate. Betis believes that the young man, who has been with the team for less than two years, can still thrive and be useful to the team. The striker's contract is long and runs until the middle of 2028. Therefore, negotiating his transfer will be quite difficult.

“We analyzed (the proposals) calmly, knowing that he is an important player and that he still has a lot to give us”, he said.


FLAMENGO NEGOTIATION MODELS BY LUIZ HENRIQUE

Mais Querido wants to have the striker only on loan. However, the Spanish team remains firm and only wants to sell the player. The value stipulated by the Spaniards is considered high: around 18 million euros (R$ 95.9 million).

According to GE, there is a chance for Flamengo to buy Luiz Henrique, but Mais Querido will offer a much lower value than that established by Betis, because given this price, the Rubro Negro board will have a way of acquiring the player with a major impasse in negotiations.

Flamengo continues to expand its high-performance structure . The club invested $1 million (approximately R$5.35 million) in new equipment for Ninho do Urubu , including two pieces of equipment that are the first of its kind in Latin America, manufactured by Keiser, a global leader in physical training solutions.


FIRST WORLD EQUIPMENT


One of the highlights is the Keiser A300 Runner , designed to simulate the acceleration phase of running. Unlike traditional machines, which use iron weights, this model uses compressed air resistance , providing a smoother, jerk-free load, which reduces impact on joints during workouts.


Furthermore, the equipment allows for unilateral or bilateral training, helping to correct common muscular asymmetries in athletes. The integrated digital panel displays real-time data, such as applied load, power, and number of repetitions , allowing for more accurate analysis.

Another unique feature is the inertia-free technology, which prevents the weight from returning to the body at the end of the movement. This feature increases safety and reduces risks to muscles and joints, making the device useful for both explosive work and rehabilitation processes.


PAVANELLI HIGHLIGHTS INVESTMENT IN EXCLUSIVE TECHNOLOGY

Flamengo coordinator on equipment: "These devices are the first in Latin America"

For Flamengo 's sports science coordinator, Cláudio Pavanelli, the investment places the club on a par with European football giants: "Some devices are specifically for athletes. They simulate the execution of a movement, a run, a sprint at high intensity. These devices are the first in Latin America. Only a few major European clubs have acquired this new technology ," he explained.

He continued: " The big difference is that you can analyze the application of force throughout the entire movement . At each joint level, you can identify exactly what is being performed, considering the applied overload and the speed of the movement." With the new investment, Flamengo reinforces its commitment to maintaining a level of physical excellence among its squad, combining performance and injury prevention.
