Flamengo’s Board Prioritizes Quick Decisions on Players with Contracts Nearing Expiration

Flamengo is facing a crucial moment with several important decisions to make as many contracts are close to ending. Seven players from the main squad will be able to sign pre-contracts with other clubs starting in July, putting veterans, players in negotiations, and promising youngsters under the board’s close watch.

WHICH PLAYERS MIGHT RETIRE?

The experience of Danilo and Alex Sandro puts both on the list of possible retirements. While the center-back has already decided to end his career at the end of his contract, the left-back has yet to define his next steps.

In addition, Bruno Henrique, the club’s most decorated player, is also considering retirement. At 35 years old, the forward has indicated that his time as a Flamengo player is drawing to a close, leaving open the possibility of ending his career at Flamengo.

WHO MIGHT LEAVE IN SEARCH OF NEW PATHS?

Everton Cebolinha faced a 2025 marked by injuries and fluctuating performances. Because of this, the forward is seeking more opportunities within the team. At the same time, with interest from other clubs, the departure of the number 11 next season is a real possibility.

WHICH YOUNGSTERS HAVE CONTRACTS NEARING EXPIRATION?

Dyogo Alves and Iago are among the youngsters whose contracts will soon expire. Dyogo became the immediate backup to Rossi after Matheus Cunha left, and the club continues to look for reinforcements for the position.

Meanwhile, Iago has been training permanently with the professional squad since leaving the under-20s, but his contract has not yet been renewed. The young player has received inquiries from the market, but no proposals have advanced so far.

WHO IS RETURNING FROM LOAN?

Carlinhos is returning from loan at Vitória, with a contract valid until 2026. Despite this, the forward is not expected to join Flamengo’s main squad and his future remains uncertain.

HOW IS THE BOARD HANDLING CONTRACTS ABOUT TO EXPIRE?

The Flamengo board has been prioritizing quick decisions regarding players with contracts nearing expiration. Promising athletes may see negotiations accelerated if they stand out. The strategic planning aims to balance experience, renewal, and opportunities for young talents.
