Filipe Luís received an offer to transfer to Fenerbahçe (TUR), but he preferred to remain at Flamengo. In this context, former player Fábio Luciano highlighted that the player made the right decision by rejecting offers and staying with the Most Beloved.
— I am sure he is right. All my respect to Fenerbahçe, a giant club in Turkey, which has signed good players. Ederson, the goalkeeper, is there now, as well as other internationally renowned athletes. But Filipe manages his career very well. Besides the affection he has for Flamengo, he knows he has great possibilities of continuing to make his mark in the club's history, which is enormous — said Fábio Luciano.
— Flamengo is heading in that direction, due to the way they play, the squad they have assembled, and his own capability. We are sure that Filipe's career will be long and enduring, and that he plans every step he takes very well. It's a very good decision for the Flamengo fan and for everyone who follows his work, because he adds a lot to the club — completed the former defender.
Filipe Luís has a contract with Flamengo until December of this year. However, the red-black club has already started negotiations to try to extend the coach's contract. Last Monday (15), José Boto, the football director of Mengão, revealed that talks are already underway.
Flamengo with Filipe Luís will take the field this Thursday (18), against Estudiantes (ARG), in a match valid for the Copa Libertadores, at 9:30 PM (Brasília time). As usual, Coluna do Fla provides all the information about the match.
