Flamengo begins this Saturday (06) the marathon it will face over the coming days. That is because, after leaving Rio de Janeiro to take on Remo on Sunday (07), the Rubro-Negro will travel to Ecuador, where they face Independiente del Valle (ECU) on Thursday (10). With that, Mengão released the list of called-up players.
SEE FLAMENGO’S LIST OF CALLED-UP PLAYERS:Goalkeepers: Rossi, Andrew and Dyogo Alves;Center-backs: Danilo, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Vitão;Full-backs: Ayrton Lucas, Emerson Royal, Varela and Johnny,Midfielders: Carrascal, Arrascaeta, De La Cruz, Erick Pulgar, Jorginho, Lucas Paquetá, Lorran and Saúl;Forwards: Bruno Henrique, Everton Cebolinha, Joaquín Freitas, Luiz Araújo, Pedro, Samuel Lino and Valencia.
Joaquín Freitas and Anthony Valencia, both newly signed, are included in the squad list for the matches. Therefore, the expectation is that the duo could already get a few minutes on the pitch against Remo. From there, attention turns to how the players will perform.
De La Cruz and Vitão are back in Flamengo matchday squads after a long spell recovering from injuries. Therefore, both return as options for the coaching staff right at the final stretch of the season. As a result, the Rubro-Negro gain more options in the squad for the run of decisive fixtures ahead.
Alex Sandro, however, is still under the care of the medical department and will not travel with the squad. As a result, coach Leonardo Jardim still only has Ayrton Lucas and Johnny available for the position.
Evertton Araújo is also not traveling, as he suffered a serious injury to the adductor of his right thigh. Therefore, the defensive midfielder still has no timetable for a return to the pitch given the severity of the injury. Finally, Plata also remains unavailable, as he has not yet reported to the club after failed negotiations with Dynamo Moscow (RUS). The expectation is that the Ecuadorian will travel during the week and be available for the clash against Del Valle.
The match between Flamengo and Remo takes place this Sunday (06), at 4:00 PM (Brasília time), at Mangueirão Stadium in Belém. The game could even put Mengão on top of the Brazilian Championship table.
After the clash with Remo, Flamengo will continue on to Ecuador, where they will face Independiente del Valle. In short, the ball starts rolling on Thursday (10), at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Estádio Olímpico Atahualpa. It is worth noting that both matches will have full coverage from Coluna do Fla TV on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media.
