Kauã Santos is the newest Cria do Ninho to shine in Europe. The player debuted this Thursday (07) for Eintracht Frankfurt in a friendly game. The first match was also a great first impression, as he ended up receiving special attention in the country's press with many comments and praise about him.
The Germans carried out an article this Sunday (10) about Kauã and his performance. Eintracht spoke about the goalkeeper's entire journey, especially at Flamengo's academy. The club also made a point of praising Mais Querido's formation: “It is known as one of the most successful in Brazil and the world. World stars like Vinicius Junior and goalkeeping legend Júlio César took the first steps of their professional careers.”
Sporting director Timmo Hardung spoke in relation to the signing of the young Brazilian goalkeeper, who has a contract with Frankfurt until 2028, and how that makes them happy, since he apparently has a lot of talent. “We are pleased that we managed to sign a great goalkeeper like Kauã Santos", he said and also informed how they have been keeping an eye on Cria for a long time.
"We follow him through our scouting and goalkeeping departments and we are convinced of its great potential. With us, he will receive the greatest possible support and the opportunity to advance even further in his personal development”, said the German leader.
And we couldn't miss the awards that the player has already won, even at such a young age. Goalkeeper coach Jan Zimmermann highlighted Kauã's leadership role at Flamengo U20, where he was captain. He helped lead the team to become champion of the Brasileirão in the category. “Captain as goalkeeper – that says a lot about his personality,” said the German.

Midfielder Lucas Paquetá is going through a period of uncertainty with West Ham. Cleared of gambling charges, the former Flamengo player has once again attracted attention in the European market. According to the English newspaper The Athletic, the player is reportedly reluctant to take the field until his future is determined.
According to the publication, people close to the athlete claim that he does not intend to play in the match against Nottingham Forest, scheduled for this Sunday (31), valid for the third round of the Premier League. The London team is still looking for its first victory in the competition.
In recent days, Aston Villa has expressed interest in signing Paquetá, but negotiations have been hampered by UEFA restrictions and West Ham's high asking price. With the transfer window approaching , negotiations are starting to look unlikely. Besides Villa, Tottenham and Everton are also closely monitoring the Brazilian midfielder's situation, as he remains highly valued in the English market.
Discovered by Flamengo , Paquetá has established himself as a regular starter for the London team and is considered one of the main names in the squad, despite the team's inconsistent performance, which should be fighting against the bottom of the table.
At the start of the current season, Paquetá was offered to Flamengo through his representatives. At the time, West Ham was asking for around £30 million, but negotiations stalled due to the ongoing legal process. Today, the situation is different, as the player has established himself as one of the key players in the English squad.

Flamengo idol Zico analyzed Flamengo's offensive transformation in 2025 under Filipe Luís. For the former player, the decision to position Arrascaeta closer to the box was crucial in boosting the club's attack. "Many teams have eliminated my position. There's no such thing as a player who plays with the center forward. What Filipe Luís is doing at Flamengo is putting Arrascaeta alongside the center forward ," stated the Galinho.
Zico on Arrascaeta at Flamengo: "he never scored so many goals"
The change had a direct impact on the Uruguayan's stats. In 18 Brasileirão appearances, Arrascaeta has 11 goals and 10 assists, totaling 21 direct contributions. The average is impressive: one contribution every 64 minutes on the pitch. According to Zico, the number 10 has never been so close to scoring: " Arrascaeta has never scored so many goals and never reached the box as much as he is now ."
Rubro-Negro arrives for the 22nd round buoyed by the historic 8-0 thrashing of Vitória, the biggest in the points-based era. As the sole leader, Filipe Luís's team faces Grêmio this Sunday (31), at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã. On the other side, the Tricolor gaúcho is going through an unstable moment : it occupies only 14th place in the table and, after the elimination in the South American, focuses its forces exclusively on the Brasileirão.
FLAMENGO: Rossi; Varela, Leo Ortiz, Leo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas (Viña); Jorginho, Saul and Arrascaeta; Plata, Pedro and Samuel Lino. Coach: Filipe Luis.
GRÊMIO: Tiago Volpi; Marcos Rocha, Noriega, Kannemann and Marlon; Cuéllar, Dodi and Edenilson; Alysson, Carlos Vinicius (Braithwaite) and Cristian Olivera. Coach: Mano Menezes.

Gabriel Barbosa, currently at Cruzeiro , celebrated his 29th birthday this Saturday (30) with a public display of affection for Flamengo. After receiving a tribute from the club on social media, the striker responded with the phrase: “ Once Flamengo, Flamengo until death ”, accompanied by two hearts, one black and one red, in allusion to the red-black colors.
Flamengo 's message recalled the striker's trajectory since his arrival in 2019 and extolled his importance to the fans: " G. Barbosa, Gabriel Barbosa, Gabigol, Gabi. 29 years ago, the Predestinado was born . In 2019, he came to protect the Nation and conquer America, Brazil. He was a super champion. 13 trophies to be exact, scoring 16 times (!!!) in finals."
Over six seasons at Flamengo , Gabigol established himself as one of the most important players in the team's recent history. The striker played 308 matches, scored 161 goals and won 13 titles , including two editions of the Copa Libertadores da América (2019 and 2022).
His most memorable moment came in November 2019, when he scored twice in the final against River Plate , securing his second continental championship. Since then, he has been called the "Immortal Rubro-Negro," a tag that still resonates among fans.
Even though he currently wears a different jersey, Gabriel Barbosa left the Red-Blacks as one of the club's all-time top scorers , ranking sixth on the all-time scoring charts. His career continues to be marked by his protagonism in decision-making and the adored fan base, establishing him as one of the club's greatest idols.
