Flamengo boss urges player to improve, hails his intelligence | OneFootball

Flamengo loaned Lorran to Pisa (ITA) until June 2026

Flamengo finalized the loan of attacking midfielder Lorran to Pisa, Italy, last Sunday (31), on the penultimate day of the transfer window. Thus, Bruno Pivetti, coach of the U-20 red-black team, highlighted that the player needs to evolve collectively and also emphasized the player's intelligence.

— Lorran needed to better balance his development with the ball, which was exceptional, with his development in the game without the ball […] Everything started from good defensive positioning, the good defensive approach he had, reading the play beforehand. […] Lorran managed to offer the outside space to the opponent and, when it was time for the opponent to make the inside pass, Lorran managed to intercept. This is proof, in my view, of the great ability and intelligence he has — began Bruno Pivetti.

— When will Lorran be able to defend with fewer fluctuations and participate in the collective part necessary for the team, in the game without the ball? With training, experience, and information. And then he will keep reproducing this until it becomes a habit, rooted as such — concluded the Flamengo coach, in an interview with ‘Barbapodcast’.

WAS LORRAN SOLD TO PISA?

Flamengo will receive 500 thousand euros (R$ 3.1 million at the current exchange rate) for the loan of Lorran to Pisa (ITA). Thus, the Italian team is obliged to buy the 19-year-old midfielder if the youngster plays in half of the team's matches this season and the club is not relegated to the second division.

Therefore, the purchase obligation is 4 million euros (R$ 25 million at the current exchange rate). In addition, the red-black team will retain 50% of the economic rights in this case. Finally, the player was announced last Sunday (31) by the Italian team.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY AGAIN?

Thus, already without Lorran, Flamengo remains focused on the next challenges of the season. That’s because the club, led by Bruno Pivetti, takes the field on Saturday (06), against Vasco, at home, at 09:30 AM (Brasília time), in a match valid for the Campeonato Carioca.
