Assistant Marcelo Salles, known as "Fera", who had a spell at Flamengo in 2019, will be the replacement, as the coach is suspended.

Marcelo Salles took charge of Flamengo after Abel's departure Braga and the arrival of Jorge Jesus, in 2019.

In addition, Renato's technical assistant, Alexandre Mendes, was removed from Grêmio on suspicion of involvement in a case of domestic violence. Mendes, who led the team in the last match against Red Bull Bragantino, last Sunday (15), will be replaced by Marcelo Salles, who will have James Freitas as technical assistant.


Passage of Marcelo Salles for Flamengo

In 2019, Marcelo Salles led Flamengo in four matches, obtaining three wins (against Fortaleza, Corinthians and CSA) and one draw (against Fluminense). He left the club in 2020, during the pandemic, and was invited by Renato Gaúcho, the following year, to join his technical committee. "Fera" returned to Mais Querido during Renato's time at the club in 2021.

Salles was also part of Mengão's technical committee in winning the sixth Brazilian championship in 2009, under the command of Andrade. Grêmio and Flamengo face each other at 6:30 pm this Sunday (22). Mengão occupies fourth place in the championship, with 45 points, while Grêmio is in 14th place, with 28 points.

Since Pedro's injury, Flamengo and CBF have been on a "collision course". This is because the number 9 was seriously injured while training with the Brazilian team and will now be out for the rest of the season. According to Rodolfo Landim, there was a loading error in the team's training on the player, who was returning from injury at the club. This Friday (20), Rodrigo Caetano, coordinator of the entity, responded to the red-black president.

"I'm not here to analyze any statement regarding this. I can say that there are great professionals here at CBF who have been there for for a long time, they are permanent members of the house and have carried out this work over all these years. Not only does this load control exist, we took all the care in the world", said Caetano, to GE, about the situation involving Pedro. .

"Now, analysis whether it was or wasn't, I'm not going to get into that debate. We always generate any and all types of reports, not only for Flamengo, Atlético-MG… For all clubs, for everything athletes they have been doing since the first day they arrive here. Obviously, in our view, all these protocols were respected", added the CBF director.

TIME OF PEDRO'S RECOVERY

Last Friday On Friday (13), Pedro underwent surgery and the procedure was successful. Thus, the red-black number 9 is racing against time aiming for the 2025 season. The estimated recovery period for this type of injury is around eight months. The red-black department believes that the striker is ready for the 2025 World Cup.

FOCUS ON THE SEASON

Thus, without Pedro, Flamengo has been trying to readapt with Carlinhos and Gabigol in the attack. However, the attackers are lacking the rhythm of the game and are unable to stand out. Thus, Tite will only have the two athletes for the remainder of the season.
