The club has a lot of explaining to do

0The recent negotiation involving Wesley, player ofFlamengo, is a clear example of how not to conduct negotiations in football. In a scenario where professionalism and efficiency are crucial, Flamengo demonstrated disastrous management, reflecting a lack of strategy and planning.
The case in question is emblematic. In less than three months, Flamengo had the opportunity to negotiate a loan for Wesley, and now, the situation has evolved into an imminent sale of the player for 20 million euros. This amount represents a significant amount that the club is about to lose due to lack of a more structured and effective approach.
Initially, Flamengo was considering a loan for Wesley, which indicated an attempt to keep the player in the squad while still looking for a more advantageous financial solution. However, the lack of a solid action plan and clear strategy caused the negotiation to fall apart. What appeared to be an opportunity to solve a temporary problem turned into a substantial financial loss.
What was seen behind the scenes was a series of failures in communication and decision-making. The negotiation that began with the idea of a loan ended up becoming a sales scenario, which demonstrates a lack of adaptation and flexibility on the part of management. In a highly competitive environment like football, the ability to adapt and seize opportunities is crucial to ensuring the best financial and sporting result.
The lack of a long-term vision was also evident. Instead of looking for a solution that would benefit the club in the short and long term, Flamengo's management focused on short-term decisions, leaving the club in a less favorable position. The value of 20 million of euros that is about to be lost could have been used more efficiently to reinforce the squad or for other strategic areas of the club.
Striker awaits end of contract and red-black election to understand possible paths

0In the relationship between Gabigol and coach Tite at Flamengo, only the field is capable of speaking. Between the striker and coach, there is practically no dialogue, and the cold and silent war dictates that only one of them should remain at the club for the season in 2025.
No atmosphere with the coaching staff and also with the squad , Gabriel Barbosa has been convinced to change and airs, but even the clubs that expressed interest in the first half of the year backed away. With a contract at Flamengo until the end of December, Gabigol had offers from Palmeiras, Corinthians and Santos, was mentioned at Grêmio, but did not want to sign a pre-contract with any team.
The expectation was to try to turn things around on top in the second half, otherwise he would end his time at Flamengo like the idol he became, without any fuss.
Tite's arrival last year changed the entire perspective of the striker, who was already in a bad phase previously, and lost his place once and for all to Pedro with the presence of the new coach. With the center forward's recent injury, Tite kept Gabigol at the end of the line, under the argument that Carlinhos and Bruno Henrique perform better in the scheme with a reference man .
Without understanding the criteria, Gabi maintains her dedication to the basic level of professionalism in training, as it is not part of the coach's or the club's plans for a possible renewal. With the chances of a comeback practically buried, the two possible paths are to wait for the election in Flamengo to find out if Tite will remain with the next president; or wait for the end of the contract to freely listen to proposals again. Palmeiras and Santos have not yet given up on the idea, and Bahia appears as an option, as it has good investment capacity.
