Will Flamengo players not return on the chartered plane by Leila Pereira?


Palmeiras president Leila Pereira offered to bring back the athletes Vitor Roque, Fabrício Bruno, and Paulo Henrique from the Brazilian National Team, the last two being from Cruzeiro and Vasco, respectively. The athletes will return to Brazil after the FIFA break on a plane chartered by the president's company.

Will Flamengo players also be on Leila Pereira’s flight?

It’s worth noting that two Flamengo players were also called up by the Brazilian National Team. They are Alex Sandro and Danilo. In other words, Leila Pereira did not offer help to Flamengo to bring the athletes back to Brazil after the FIFA break.

What did Leila Pereira say about lending the plane to Vasco and Cruzeiro players?

Leila Pereira even reported that she spoke with Pedrinho, owner of Cruzeiro’s SAF, and with the president of Vasco, who is also named Pedrinho. The president stated that there was a “spirit of cooperation” among the clubs.

— Pedrinho, owner of Cruzeiro’s SAF, and Pedrinho, president of Vasco, contacted me to ask if I could bring the athletes with Vitor Roque on my plane. I promptly replied ‘yes’ — she said, before concluding:

— I said that Fabrício Bruno and Paulo Henrique could return with us to Brazil without any problem. This is the spirit of cooperation that should guide Brazilian football, not the individualism that some clubs and managers insist on showing — Leila concluded.

The first match for Brazil will be against Senegal, on November 15 (Saturday), at Emirates Stadium in London, England. Finally, the second match for the Brazilian National Team is scheduled for the 18th (Tuesday) against Tunisia, in Lille, France.
