Zico will give a lecture for Flamengo Academy, the club’s educational platform


Zico is back at Flamengo, but this time as a coach. That’s because the Rubro-Negro idol will teach a class about the Rubro-Negro DNA starting Monday (15). Thus, ‘Galinho de Quintino’ will be the main attraction of the Flamengo Academy workshop, the club’s educational platform.

I’m stopping by to invite you to the Flamengo Academy. We’re going to have a full week there at George Helal, better known as Ninho do Urubu. And I’ll be there too, taking part, giving a lecture, talking about Flamengo’s DNA. It will take place from June 15 to 19 -, said Zico.

How can you take part in Zico’s training session?

Registration has been extended until Saturday (13), at 11:59 p.m., on the website ingressos.flamengo.com.br. The program will include lectures, debates, practical activities, monitoring of training sessions and matches, as well as roundtable discussions on topics related to the sporting and personal development of young athletes.

Who is the Flamengo workshop recommended for?

“The idea is to bring professionals, students and football enthusiasts closer to the real-life experience of the Rubro-Negro youth development environment. We want a practical and immersive experience alongside professionals who work directly in the day-to-day of the academy,” explained Alfredo Almeida, director of Fla’s youth categories.

What about Flamengo’s first team squad?

The players coached by Leonardo Jardim, however, are on break, except for the nine Rubro-Negro players called up for the World Cup. Thus, the activities of the Most Beloved will resume with a three-friendly midseason training camp in Portugal.
