Carlos Alberto ‘loses it’ at Arrascaeta mention, odd reply | OneFootball

What did Carlos Alberto do when he heard the name of Flamengo’s Arrascaeta?

Carlos Alberto continues to stir up talk when the subject is Arrascaeta. Last Tuesday (24), at the Rio FutSummit event, the former midfielder lost it when he heard the name of Flamengo’s number 10.

In a relaxed chat, Carlos Alberto was asked whether he played better than Djalminha. Right away, the former player said: “Of course he did, I’m not crazy”. However, when the comparison shifted to Arrascaeta, the former midfielder fired back: “You’ve got to be kidding. I played better than him, won more titles, and made more money than him.”

WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN CARLOS ALBERTO AND ARRASCAETA?

It is important to point out that this is not the first time Carlos Alberto has gotten “worked up” when talking about Arrascaeta. The former athlete’s frustration with Flamengo’s Uruguayan star began back at Zico’s “Game of the Stars” in 2022, when the Mengão midfielder nutmegged the former player.

On that occasion, Carlos Alberto even tried to avoid the move, but the ball went right through his legs. Since then, the former midfielder is always asked about that play and also compared to Flamengo’s Uruguayan star.

WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CARLOS ALBERTO AND ARRASCAETA LIKE?

Even with all this banter, both Carlos Alberto and Arrascaeta have already made it clear that there is no feud off the pitch. The former midfielder even said in a recent interview that his children have a signed jersey and a photo with Flamengo’s Uruguayan player.

At the moment, Arrascaeta is on duty with Uruguay, fully focused on the final friendlies before the 2026 World Cup. As such, La Celeste faces England this Friday (27) at 4:45 PM (Brasília time) at Wembley in London.
