Astronomical value! Wesley accepts Atalanta's proposal and says goodbye to Flamengo

This last Saturday (21), the 27th round of the Brasileirão began. Thus, the matches continue this Sunday (22), with Flamengo taking the field to try to climb the leaderboard.

The games will take place simultaneously, starting at 4pm. Thus, while Atlético-MG hosts Bragantino, at Arena MRV, Vasco faces Palmeiras, in São Januário.

The other four Brasileirão games take place from 6:30 pm, simultaneously. While São Paulo hosts Internacional, at Morumbis, Criciúma faces Athletico-PR, at the Heriberto Hulse Stadium.

Flamengo enters the field at the same time, as they face Grêmio, in Porto Alegrew, as well how Cuiabá faces Cruzeiro, at Arena Pantanal. Thus, the 27th round of the Brasileirão ends on Sunday with six games.

FOCUS ON THE CONFRONTATION

Mais Querido currently occupies fourth place on the leaderboard , with just 45 points. Thus, Rubro-Negro will have to beat Grêmio if they want to close the gap to third and second place. Furthermore, Tite will be without 13 players from the starting team.

Thus, Flamengo and Grêmio face each other this Sunday (22), at 6:30 pm, in Porto Alegre, for the 27th round of the Brasileirão. The game will be broadcast live on SporTV and Premiere.

Recovering from muscular fibrosis, Gabigol was not included in the match between Grêmio and Flamengo, scheduled for this Sunday (22), at 6:30 pm, at the Arena. Recently, news emerged on social media that worried red and black fans, suggesting that the striker would no longer be involved until the end of his contract. However, a source close to the board confirmed that this information is unfounded. The information is from the 'Mundo Rubro-Negro' portal.

Thus, Gabriel Barbosa will be listed by Tite again as soon as he is 100% recovered from fibrosis. According to the club, this condition is not considered an injury, but rather a complication that may arise during the muscle healing process. Gabigol felt discomfort in his thigh when he returned for the classic against Vasco last weekend.

Even with the possibility of counting on Gabigol, Tite sees him as the third option for the attack, behind Bruno Henrique and even Carlinhos, formerly of Nova Iguaçu: “Carlinhos was decisive against Bolívar, Atlético-MG, Vitória. That was why this option was made (instead of the number 99). We scored the goal with Carlinhos on the field”, said the coach after the draw with Vasco, last Sunday (15).

Uncertain future: Gabigol could leave Flamengo in DecemberMarked in Flamengo's history, the striker is expected to leave the club in December, when his contract ends. To date, there have been no conversations between the parties regarding a possible renewal. Four Brazilian clubs are monitoring Gabigol's situation at Flamengo: Bahia, Palmeiras, Cruzeiro and Corinthians.

Since his arrival at Flamengo in 2019, Gabigol has won two Brazilian titles, two Libertadores, one Copa do Brasil, four Cariocas, one Recopa and two Supercups.

On Friday afternoon (23), Flamengo officially presented Michael at a press conference at Ninho do Urubu. After the attacker's presentation, Marcos Braz and Bruno Spindel explained to journalists Atalanta's negotiation for Wesley. The vice-president of red-black football highlighted that the club did not lose the negotiation for the sale of the athlete.

"Flamengo did not lose this negotiation. Now I'm going to talk about the sporting match. I'm going to talk about the player. He was criticized so much in relation to Atalanta comes, a team from England comes, a team from France comes and everyone sees Wesley as a good player, the only people who don't think so are the people here in relation to Brazil. The professionals there want the player, and the amateurs here. no? 16 million euros (R$96 million) for 90% of Wesley's economic rights. The deal would be around 20 million euros with targets to be achieved (R$ 120 million). 

With the cancellation of his transfer to Europe, Wesley seemed quite dissatisfied, as everything was arranged for the full-back to say goodbye to Mais Querido. Now, the young man is waiting for a new proposal from other clubs to try to play in European football.

FOCUS ON THE NEXT COMMITMENT

Without transferring to European football, Wesley ended up getting injured and will be out of Flamengo's next game. Mais Querido returns to the field next Sunday (25th), at 8pm, at Maracanã.
