Flamengo finds itself at a decisive moment and full of expectations for the 2024 season, starting its journey in the Copa Libertadores this Tuesday (02), facing Millonarios (COL) in Bogotá, at the El Campín stadium. This clash marks the beginning of a series of challenges that the team will face in the South American competition, where they will also face Bolívar (BOL) and Palestino (CHI) in Group E.
In addition to focusing on the Libertadores and the second game in the final of the Rio championship, Flamengo has its eyes focused on the future, specifically on the 2025 Club World Cup. Zico, the club's biggest idol, expressed his vision for this preparation, highlighting Flamengo's current strength and credibility in the transfer market.
He suggests that the club should aim high, stating: “Flamengo is very strong at the moment and has a lot of credibility in the (transfer) market. , enough, in my opinion, to go out and try to sign one of the biggest names in world football, especially knowing that he will be in this tournament.” Zico emphasizes the importance of adding a “big name” to the squad, believing that this can significantly improve Flamengo's chances against European teams.
With its classification for Club World Cup 2025 already guaranteed, thanks to winning the Libertadores 2022, Flamengo faces the challenge of preparing for a tournament that promises to be highly competitive, with a new format of 32 teams divided into eight groups . The presence of a world-class player in the squad is seen by Zico as an important differentiator for Flamengo's success in this competition.
In this period of expectation and planning, Zico's words resonate with a sense of optimism and ambition. He concludes his vision for Flamengo's future with the following reflection: “As it already has a strong squad, it would be good to go after a big name, someone who is a level above. The more you strengthen the team, the better the results will be. Therefore, it makes sense to focus all efforts on strengthening the team enough to be able to face a European team.” This focus on strengthening the squad reflects Flamengo's desire to not only compete, but stand out on the international stage, especially as the 2025 Club World Cup approaches.
Flamengo's debut in the Libertadores against Millonarios is not only the start of their campaign in the competition, but also a test of the club's greater ambitions. The match, scheduled to start at 7pm (Brasília time), will be an important moment for Flamengo to demonstrate that it has the best squad in South America.

Gabriel Barbosa, known as Gabigol, is experiencing a period of uncertainty at Cruzeiro. A reserve under Leonardo Jardim, the striker has already publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the lack of minutes. " I'm looking for minutes, he (Leonardo Jardim) knows that ," he said after scoring the winning goal against Bahia last Monday (15).
According to information from journalist Jorge Nicola, Corinthians appears as a possible destination for the number 9 , former Flamengo player, who could be negotiated in 2026 if nothing changes until the end of the season.
The current Corinthians board sees Gabigol as an interesting opportunity, especially when compared to Dutchman Memphis Depay. According to the survey, Depay earns R$6 million per month, while the Cruzeiro striker's salary is R$2.4 million . Furthermore, the Brazilian is 31 years old, two years younger than the European.
The "courtship" between Corinthians and Gabigol isn't recent . There have been at least three previous negotiations. Internally at Cruzeiro, there's an understanding that the player's departure could be beneficial for both parties, as he arrived as a star and now plays a supporting role.
Gabigol arrived at Cruzeiro on a free transfer after ending his stint with Flamengo. He has a four-year contract with the Minas Gerais club and has so far played 35 matches, scored 12 goals , and provided four assists.
An idol for the Rubro-Negro, the striker wrote one of the most successful chapters in Flamengo's recent history. Between 2019 and 2023, he played 308 matches, scored 161 goals, and won 13 titles , including two Copa Libertadores da América titles. His most memorable moment came in the 2019 final against River Plate, when he scored two decisive goals, cementing his nickname "Immortal Rubro-Negro."
Labor court judge sees 'delaying intent' in Mengão's decision to appeal against employee who was on duty on the day of the fire

Flamengo lost again in the lawsuit filed by Benedito Ferreira , the club's former security guard who worked during the fire at Ninho do Urubu in 2019. In the first instance, the professional won the right to receive compensation of R$600,000, including R$100,000 for moral damages and R$500,000 for material damages , in addition to a lifetime pension until the age of 78. Rubro-Negro can still appeal the decision.
Labor judge Bruno Andrade de Macedo imposed a 2% fine when he rejected Flamengo 's motion for clarification against the previous ruling. According to the judge, the motions were used with a "clearly delaying intent," unjustifiably delaying the delivery of the judicial decision and violating the principles of speed and efficiency.
Benedito Ferreira helped rescue at least three victims during the Ninho do Urubu fire, which killed 10 young people from Flamengo 's youth academy in February 2019. He was fired in 2022, after working at the club since 2008, and filed two lawsuits against the institution , one while still an employee, demanding labor, social security and civil rights.
The main allegation is that Flamengo failed to register his dismissal with the INSS (National Institute of Social Security) due to the fire . The judge emphasized that, even if Benedito were reinstated in a different role, this would not eliminate his right to a monthly pension, considering the total reduction in his capacity to perform his previous role.
The case included a medical examination that found that Benedito suffers from Depressive Disorder, Adjustment Disorder, and Panic Disorder , with worsening symptoms and suicidal ideation. The report also concluded that the pathologies are occupational in origin, with a causal or concausal link between the injuries and his work at Flamengo.
The judge also considered Benedito's dismissal a "wrongful act," as the club was aware of the medical treatment required for the occupational injury . The expert stated that the security guard is "unfit with restrictions for the work he performed at the Defendant or any similar work," demonstrating a loss of fitness for his original role.
