The Flamengo squad received a few days of rest after the match against Bahia last Sunday (05), for the Brasileirão. Looking ahead to their return, the Rubro-Negro has set up a schedule that includes dividing the squad.
The Flamengo reassembly will take place as follows: Wednesday (08) and Thursday (09). Thus, the first group will attend Ninho do Urubu to perform activities in the gym, while the rest will have one more day of rest.
The Flamengo's intention with this extra break for one group is due to the understanding that the selected players are experiencing greater physical wear. Therefore, coach Filipe Luís begins preparations during the FIFA break with the full squad on Thursday (09). This information comes from journalist Venê Casagrande.
The FIFA break arrived for Flamengo at a time when the club is experiencing fluctuations in the season. With results below expectations, the Rubro-Negro has become a ‘target’ of criticism and, moreover, lost the leadership of the Brasileirão.
During this break, coach Filipe Luís will have most of the players available, as Flamengo did not have players called up for national teams. Finally, it is expected that Erick Pulgar will return to training after recovering from surgery on the metatarsal of his right foot.
After the FIFA break, the Flamengo squad returns to the field to face Botafogo, for the Brasileirão. The classic match takes place on October 15, at 7:30 PM (Brasília time), at Engenhão. Coluna do Fla TV, as usual, will show the details of the match on YouTube.
