When Rubro-Negro was winning 2-0, Tite was about to replace Pedro with Gabigol, with number 10 already on the edge of the field to enter, a scene caught attention on the edge of the field. Still off the field, Gabriel asked 'Artilheiro Reverência' to take the penalty. The gesture was not well received by the coach, who reprimanded the player, according to information from GE.
Although he did not raise his voice, Tite made a point of addressing the subject in front of all the players. The situation occurred 14 minutes into the second half. Gabigol asked the coach if he could hit, but the gaucho didn't respond. Then, the number 10 called Arrascaeta and asked the Uruguayan to speak to Pedro, asking him to concede the charge.
Gabigol gestured, desperate, pointing to his own chest, but with no response from Pedro and Tite. Then, the number 9 wasted the charge, ending up in the hands of Boavista's goalkeeper. So, the coach waited for the end of the game to make a disciplinary correction in the Maracanã locker rooms.
Tite asked for the floor, told Gabigol that nothing revolves around the attacker, and highlighted that Flamengo is more important than that any player and that personal desires can harm Rubro-Negro. Furthermore, the commander asked for attitude and respect for the Sacred Mantle. So, the player just observed and didn't respond.
Despite the scene, Tite's stance is not new. The coach usually makes disciplinary corrections in the locker rooms and in front of the group when he identifies a problem. Gauchos consider it essential to resolve issues face to face, to show as much clarity as possible.

Revealed by Flamengo, center forward Wendel Silva is shining in his start at Santos and becoming one of the main names in the attempt to recover the team in Series B. At 24 years old, the striker was decisive in the 2-1 victory over América-MG this Sunday (15), with a goal and an assist, achieving his fourth direct participation in goals in just four games.
With these contributions, Wendel maintains an average of one direct participation per game, having scored two goals and provided two assists since his arrival at Santos. All these moves were fundamental to the team's results.
Wendel's debut with participation in a goal came in the 2-2 draw against Ponte Preta, where he gave the pass to Giuliano to open the scoring. In his third game, he scored a great goal against Brusque, securing a 1-0 victory with a beautiful first-time shot into the corner. Check it out.
With 12 rounds remaining in Series B, Santos occupies second place, with 46 points, just one point behind the leader Novorizontino. The club is certainly counting on Wendel's good form to continue fighting for the title.
Hero at Flamengo's academy, but with little space in the main teamWendel Silva had a successful career in the youth categories of Flamengo, winning seven titles, including the Brazilian Super Cup (2019 ), the Brazilian Under-20 Championship (2019), and the São Paulo Junior Football Cup (2018). He scored the winning goal in the Copinha, in the 1-0 victory over São Paulo.
Despite his success at youth level, Wendel had few opportunities in Flamengo's main team, playing just five matches in the Campeonato Carioca from 2018 and 2020. After leaving the club, he played for Leixões and Porto, in Portugal, until he agreed with Santos in 2024.

Flamengo made the decision not to sign any striker to replace Pedro, who is injured. However, for journalist Mauro Cezar Pereira, this choice by the red-black board is wrong. According to Mauro, the experienced Cameroonian center forward Choupo-Moting would be the ideal name to fill the number 9 role at Mengão. Choupo-Moting has been without a club since leaving Bayern Munich.
“I think the board made a mistake, they should have signed a center forward. Choupo-Moting was offered, who is a 35-year-old, experienced player, he didn't have a great season at Bayern Munich, but in the previous season he was scoring goals in the knockout stages of the Champions League. He's a player ready to get in there and play the role of Carlinhos", said Mauro, on UOL's Posse de Bola program.
Mauro Cezar also mentioned that the absence of a player like Choupo-Moting was missed in the 1-1 draw against Vasco at Maracanã. Flamengo created several opportunities, but were unable to convert them into goals.
“The board should have agreed to talk to the Cameroonian striker, try to sign a contract until the middle of the year. He is a much cheaper player than Martial, who is injured, hasn't played since December and is not a boxer. He is a striker with other characteristics. He can even play as a center forward, but he is more Gabriel than Pedro. Choupo-Moting is a man in the box, he was missed”, he concluded.
Without Choupo-Moting, Flamengo bets on Gabigol, Carlinhos and Bruno HenriqueFla's board decided not to invest in Choupo-Moting or Martial and prefers to trust Bruno Henrique, Gabigol and Carlinhos to make up for Pedro's absence. So far, Bruno Henrique has played improvised in the position, alongside Luiz Araújo in attack. Against Vasco, Carlinhos was called upon to enter the second half, while Gabigol had just over 15 minutes on the field.

Remarkable name in the history of Flamengo, the striker Gabigolmust say goodbye to the club in December, when your contract comes to an end. Bahia, controlled by the City group, appears as a strong competitor to sign the center forward next season, seeing Gabriel Barbosa as a key player for 2025. The information was released by influencer Paparazzo Rubro-Negro.
In addition to Bahia, three other Brazilian clubs are closely monitoring Gabigol's situation: Palmeiras, Cruzeiro and Corinthians. Palmeiras tried to negotiate a pre-contract with the player in 2024, but Gabi gave no response, leading president Leila Pereira to withdraw the proposal. However, in January, the scenario could change, as the striker is a name that coach Abel Ferreira likes.
At Cruzeiro, Gabigol is seen as a fundamental piece in the team's reconstruction. Raposa seeks to regain its leading role in national football, and the signing of shirt number 99 from Flamengo would be a sign of strength in the market. At Corinthians, the idea is that Gabriel would form a prominent attacking duo alongside Dutchman Memphis Depay.
Episode wearing the Corinthians shirt cheers up the São Paulo clubDespite the situation delicate financial situation, Corinthians considers signing Gabigol in 2025 as an investment. Episodes such as the fact that Gabi wore the Corinthians shirt at a party at her home and the praise given to the club's fans during an interview on the Podpah podcast cheer up president Augusto Melo. Recently, Flamengo's football vice-president, Marcos Braz, showed pessimism regarding the top scorer's permanence: “Possible, but little likely”, he stated.
Gabigol has been at Flamengo since 2019 and, in that period, won two Championships Brazilians, two Libertadores, one Copa do Brasil, four Campeonatos Cariocas, one Recopa and two Supercups. However, he is currently the third option in the attack under Tite's command, behind even Carlinhos, a standout in Carioca for Nova Iguaçu.
