Fabrício Bruno left Flamengo< /a> recently headed to Cruzeiro, in a transfer marked by the defender's desire to leave the club after losing his starting position. However, the defender declared that he suffered during the negotiation period with the Minas Gerais team and revealed that the board wanted him on another team.



Flamengo received several proposals for Fabrício Bruno, including from Europe, but the defender stated that he made it clear that he always wanted to go to Cruzeiro, a team that emerged as a professional. Rennais, from France, led by Jorge Sampaoli, was most interested in the defender, who even made a similar proposal with Cruzeiro, but the player's desire and arrangements made later led to the move to the Minas Gerais team.


"During this entire negotiation process, I confess that my head is not I was fine. So, I didn't even train. I was more at home, trying to assimilate everything, resolve everything"," said the former Flamengo player.


"There were other things going on. I said: 'No, stop everything, because it's my top priority, to come back'. I was very convinced of the decision. I had other calls from coaches, but I gave my word. He himself Flamengo wanted it to go somewhere else. I said I wouldn't go", he added.

Hold during For much of last season, including calls for the Brazilian national team, Fabrício Bruno became a reserve with Filipe Luís, who saw Léo Ortiz as his ideal defender, after the player played with Tite as midfielder. The 28-year-old defender was sold to Cruzeiro for 7 million euros (around R$45 million) for 100% of the economic rights.

According to Flamengo's official website, the current squad has 26 players. However, the club's own page forgot some names, such as third goalkeeper Dyogo Alves, defenders Pablo, Iago and Carbone and striker Juninho, for example. In other words, the red and black group has more than 30 athletes available to Filipe Luís. For technical director José Boto, the number is exaggerated and needs to be reduced to 25.


< p style="border: 1px solid rgb(197, 0, 24);">"Work is never good with large casts. Never, never good. Ideally, work with 24, 25 players. Of course, with this schedule, we have to do a job not with as much quality, but having a larger squad, which I think is the main objective, but we won't do it now, as it's a long-term thing. is to have an under-20 team with the coach having ideas very close to the main team's coach, and looking for under-20 players whenever necessary", said Boto, in an interview with 'Placar'.



At this moment, it is not possible to start with the 'bull in progress', but it is one of the things we will work on, this rapprochement between the under-20 and the professional. So that there is quality in the work of the professional team and, when necessary, have quality and processes very close so that there is no need for a squad with 29 players — added the Portuguese.


Time to reduce

At the beginning of the year, Flamengo released some athletes, such as Gabigol/ David Luiz (without renewed contract) and Fabrício Bruno (sold to Cruzeiro). Furthermore, the club is talking to CSKA (RUS), who are interested in Lorran and could be another athlete to say goodbye to the club.
