Outside of the game against Maringá over the weekend, striker Petterson, who belongs to Flamengo and was loaned to Athletico-PR, is expected to leave the Paraná club soon. Coach Cuca, recently arrived at Arena da Baixada, has already made it clear internally that he does not intend to use the player. Therefore, according to journalist Wilson Pimentel, from RTI Esporte, the athlete can be returned to Fla.

As Flamengo has already signed Carlinhos, from Nova Iguaçu, Petterson would be a kind of second reinforcement that Tite would receive for the Brazilian Championship dispute. However, it is worth remembering that Mengão's coach observed the young striker's performance at the beginning of the season and released the athlete to transfer to CAP. In other words, Petterson would hardly receive chances with Tite.


In addition to not being in Cuca's plans, Petterson was even removed from activities at Athletico for committing acts of indiscipline on February 28th. The contract with CAP runs until December, with the purchase option estimated at 3 million euros (R$ 16.2 million, at current prices). However, due to the non-use of Petterson, Flamengo should not receive this amount.


Flamengo is not willing to receive Petterson

According to the GE, Flamengo should not accept the player's return. The Gávea club understands that Athletico is largely responsible for Petterson during this loan period, which came into effect on January 31st.


To prevent the attacker from remaining in these conditions until December, Flamengo and Athletico must sit down to decide what is best. The main possibility is that he will be loaned or even sold to another club.

Several Uruguayan newspapers covered the tie between Flamengo and Vasco this Sunday (15). Among the main vehicles, “El País” and “Montevidéu Portal” highlighted that Luiz Araújo left the classic with a possible knee injury and could be absent for Rubro-Negro in the first game of the Libertadores quarter-finals against Peñarol, next Thursday (19).

Luiz Araújo played just 18 minutes in the classic. The attacker felt his knee after a challenge with a Vasco defender and even tried to continue on the field, but ended up being replaced by Arrascaeta. At half-time, Flamengo issued a statement informing that the player will be re-evaluated by the medical department at Ninho do Urubu. The squad will be presented again this Monday afternoon (16).

Uruguayan newspapers consider the possible absence of Luiz Araújo a big problem for Mengão. The athlete is a starter in Tite's team, with the most matches for Flamengo this season (50) and leader in assists (10).

The newspaper 'El País' classified the player as a key player for the team: “The injury to Luiz Araújo, one of the most important players in Mengão's squad, expands the list of injured players just a few days before the clash against Peñarol in the Copa Libertadores.”


The 'Montevideo Portal' followed the same line, highlighting the importance of the striker: “In addition to the result, another bad news for Peñarol's next rival in the Copa Libertadores it was the departure of Luiz Araújo. The fast right-winger, starter for Flamengo, felt pain in his right knee after a blow.”

Currently, Flamengo's medical department has five injured players: De La Cruz, Michael, Cebolinha, Viña and Pedro, with the trio formed by Cebolinha, Viña and Pedro only expected to return in 2025.

Expectations for De La Cruz in the game against Peñarol

While awaiting Luiz Araújo's diagnosis, coach Tite revealed, after the draw against Vasco, that he hopes to count on De La Cruz for the duel against Peñarol . According to the coach, the Uruguayan's presence could improve the effectiveness of the team, which has shown good performance in recent matches.


“In training, when he (De la Cruz) was leaving, I asked 'is there enough for 20? minutes?'. He smiled, because he couldn't. The physical department definitely said they were not in a position to do so. Not even him feeling well. Especially because you have to talk to the athlete, because then there is the charge. Hopefully, and I hope that he can be there on Thursday to reproduce today's performance, with greater effectiveness”, said Tite in the post-game press conference between Flamengo x Vasco.
