Flamengo player called up, set to miss Copa do Brasil clash with Sport | OneFootball

Which Flamengo Players Will Be Called Up for the Next FIFA Break and Miss a Brasileirão Match?

The next FIFA break is approaching, and the first absence for Flamengo has already been confirmed. That’s because the Ecuadorian National Team will call up Gonzalo Plata for friendlies against Canada and New Zealand. As a result, the forward will miss an important Brasileirão match for Flamengo.

After all, Ecuador plays on November 13 and 18. During this period, Flamengo faces Sport on the 15th and Fluminense on the 19th. In other words, Plata will definitely miss the match against the team from Recife, which is a rescheduled game in the Brasileirão. This call-up was reported by journalist Bruno Lemos.

Can Plata Play Against Fluminense?

Playing in Recife for the 12th round of the Brasileirão will not be possible for Plata. However, there is a remote possibility that he could be available against Fluminense. After all, it’s not uncommon for a player to finish a match with his national team and rush back to his club.

Will Anyone Else from Flamengo Be Called Up?

Ancelotti has been keeping an eye on some Flamengo players, such as Alex Sandro and Léo Ortiz, for the Brazilian National Team. In addition to the Brazilians, the Uruguayan quartet is a regular presence in Marcelo Bielsa’s squad.

It’s also worth noting that Pulgar has returned from injury and used to be a starter for Chile before fracturing his right foot. Besides the Chilean, the Spaniard Saúl and the Italo-Brazilian Jorginho are the European call-up options in the squad.

Another national team player is Colombian Jorge Carrascal. The midfielder is in great form with the Sacred Mantle, having played a major role in Flamengo’s qualification for the Libertadores final.

How Does This Affect Flamengo?

Meanwhile, Flamengo is about to face Sport this Saturday (01), starting at 9 p.m. (Brasília time). The match will take place at Maracanã for the 31st round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
