Bruno Henrique's shock claim after Flamengo renewal: “Passing Zico…” | OneFootball

Flamengo and Bruno Henrique have renewed their deal until the end of 2027

The contract between Flamengo and Bruno Henrique has been renewed until 2027. Therefore, the club’s most decorated player in history can add even more trophies to his tally. However, the Rubro-Negro idol brushes off any comparison to Zico.

— But in the Flamengo hall of fame, I don’t want to surpass Zico or anything like that. I really just want to be able to help Flamengo even more in this year and a half we have ahead of us -, Bruno Henrique told Flamengo TV.

But is Bruno Henrique already truly an idol?

In addition to the contract renewal, Flamengo’s president announced that the forward will have a bust at the club’s headquarters in Gávea. This means the number 27 will become the first Rubro-Negro player of the century to have a sculpted tribute.

The star arrived at Flamengo in 2019 to be part of the winning team that captured the Brasileirão and the Libertadores. Moreover, alongside Arrascaeta, the winger is the most successful player in Rubro-Negro history, with 18 titles.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

With Bruno Henrique available, Flamengo face Independiente Medellín (COL) in the fourth round of Group A of the Libertadores. Kickoff is at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday (07), in Colombia. Coluna do Fla TV will provide full coverage.
