Clube de Regatas do Flamengo secured the right to 10% of the value in future sales of player João Gomes, as informed by the official @geglobo profile. This measure, added to the solidarity mechanism stipulated by FIFA, will guarantee the club a significant participation in possible transactions involving the young talent.


According to sources close to the negotiations, Flamengo was unable to maintain the economic rights of the midfielder, due to a rule established by the Premier League, the main football league in England. This regulation prohibits the distribution of the player's economic rights in the event of transfer to a club affiliated to the league.


FROM FLAMENGO TO THE ENGLISH WORLD 


João Gomes, aged 20, is considered one of the promises of Brazilian football and has awakened interest from several European clubs after his consistent performances on the field. Its potential attracted attention both inside and outside the country, leading Flamengo to adopt strategies to guarantee fair financial compensation in possible future transactions.

According to experts in sports law, the rule imposed by the Premier League has been a reason for debate among managers and jurists, especially with regard to the redistribution of players' economic rights. Some argue that this rule harms training clubs, while others argue that it aims to guarantee the financial stability of English teams.


The Flamengo, in turn, has sought alternatives to maximize their gains in transfers of players trained in their base. In addition to the case of João Gomes, the Rio club has adopted strategic measures to benefit from FIFA's solidarity mechanism in other negotiations involving athletes revealed in its youth categories.

Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone was yet another foreigner to recognize Flamengo's greatness . In an interview with TNT Sports, the Argentine praised the Rio de Janeiro club when asked about the "colchonera community" that has been forming at Ninho do Urubu.


Simeone praises Filipe Luís' Flamengo: "It's always beautiful to see them play"


When asked by journalist Fred Caldeira if he follows the Rubro-Negro's games, Simeone explained that he cannot watch due to the time difference , but highlighted the historical importance of Flamengo in Brazilian football.


"The truth is, I haven't been following Brazil's games, honestly, mainly because of the time difference, which is very late. But I always have a huge affection for Filipe Luís, Samu Lino, and Saúl . And Flamengo , the truth is, is a historic team in Brazil and around the world. It's always beautiful to watch them play," said the coach.

TIME ZONE AS AN OBSTACLE


In fact, the time difference is a barrier for those who live in Europe and want to follow Flamengo. The duel against Estudiantes (ARG), this Thursday (18), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), will start at 2:30 am on Friday (19) in Madrid.

FILIPE LUÍS AND ATLÉTICO DE MADRID

Beyond the praise, Filipe Luís's future in European football remains a topic of discussion. The Flamengo coach was once the target of interest from Fenerbahçe (TUR), but he declined the offer. Some in the Spanish press and Atlético Madrid fans are also speculating about a possible link between the former full-back and Atlético Madrid , the club Simeone has been with for over 13 years.

If the Argentine leaves the team, the chances of rumors of a future approach to the Flamengo coach increase . Meanwhile, Filipe remains at Flamengo, seeking the biggest achievements of the 2025 season.

After investing nearly R$300 million in the last transfer window, Flamengo faced a behind-the-scenes episode involving its attempt to sign Mikey Johnston from West Bromwich . The Rio de Janeiro club intended to pay £5 million (approximately R$37 million) for the Irish striker, but the deal was vetoed by president Bap.


In an interview with the UOL portal, executive director José Boto stated that the timing of the negotiations influenced the fans' perception and ultimately derailed the deal. " I think it was a matter of timing, because if he hadn't been the first, if he had been between Saúl and Samuel Lino, the fans might have reacted differently. Obviously, the job of scouting is to bring in players nobody knows," Boto said.


Flamengo director criticizes Brazilian football management: "There is a deep-rooted culture..."


The Portuguese manager also emphasized that Brazilian clubs still need to change their hiring mindset. " There's a deep-rooted culture in Portugal that Brazil will have to adopt sooner or later . Many clubs will have to start managing more according to the team's real needs than to the media or fans," he stated.

JUNINHO WAS THE FIRST BET


José Boto's first signing, Juninho has only scored three goals in 27 appearances for Flamengo, starting seven of them. He has not played since the 1-1 draw with Ceará on August 3rd and has not been included in the squad.

ABOUT THAT...

With a reinforced squad, Flamengo returns to the field this Thursday (18) to face Estudiantes, from Argentina , in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores. The match takes place at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã.
