Living more than a 'honeymoon' with Flamengo after winning the Libertadores for the fourth time and the Brasileirão for the ninth time, Arrascaeta has more reasons to celebrate. That's because the player's first child is about to be born.
In summary, Arrascaeta stated that his first child, Milano, is expected to be born on Friday (05). The number 10 informed that it will be necessary to bring forward the delivery of his wife Camila Bastiani. This is because the midfielder travels to Qatar on Saturday (06) with the red-black group.
Therefore, the idea of bringing forward Milano's birth to Friday (05) is to give Arrascaeta more peace of mind. Camila Bastiani, who was beside the player at the time, confirmed the information by nodding.
While the under-20 team faces Mirassol on Saturday (06) for the 37th round of the Brasileirão, Arrascaeta and the main team of Flamengo will take the field next Wednesday (10). Thus, in Qatar, the Most Beloved will face Cruz Azul (MEX) at 2 PM (Brasília time) for the Intercontinental.
It is worth noting that, considering the trip, the main squad of Flamengo received a break this Thursday (04) and Friday (05). Thus, the red-black delegation travels to Qatar on the afternoon of Saturday (06), when the fans promise to hold another 'AeroFla'.
Alongside Bruno Henrique, Arrascaeta is the most successful champion in Flamengo's history, with 17 trophies each. So far, the duo has the following titles with the Sacred Mantle: three Libertadores (2019, 2022, and 2025), three Brasileiros (2019, 2020, and 2025), two Copas do Brasil (2022 and 2024), three Supercopas do Brasil (2020, 2021, and 2025), Recopa Sul-Americana (2020), and five Cariocas (2019, 2020, 2021, 2024, and 2025).
At Flamengo since 2019, Arrascaeta has amassed incredible numbers with the Sacred Mantle. That's because the idol has played in 351 matches for Fla so far. Additionally, the number 10 has scored 96 goals, provided 107 assists, and has been directly involved in 203 red-black goals.
It is worth remembering that Arrascaeta had a contract with Flamengo until the end of next year. However, the player and the club have renewed the contract. Thus, the Uruguayan midfielder will remain with the Most Beloved until the end of 2028, with a release clause of 35 million euros (R$ 215 million at the current exchange rate).
