How did Carlinhos’ stunning goal happen?

In the goal play, Carlinhos took advantage of a ball won back near midfield and drove forward in attack. Then, the striker dribbled past three defenders before firing the ball into the net. So, when he found himself one-on-one with the goalkeeper, the player chose a chip over the keeper to finish the move in style.

What was Carlinhos’ journey at Flamengo like?

Carlinhos joined Flamengo in 2024 from Nova Iguaçu after an excellent Campeonato Carioca campaign. As a result, his performance in the state competition caught the attention of the red-and-black club’s board at that time. So the club decided to invest in the striker, who was then on the rise in Rio de Janeiro football.

At the time, Flamengo paid around R$3.2 million to Nova Iguaçu to acquire Carlinhos’ rights. Right away, the striker managed to get some minutes, but ended up losing space. Throughout 2024, the player featured in only four matches, in which he scored three goals.

Which clubs has Carlinhos already been loaned to?

After his spell at Flamengo, Carlinhos began to bounce around in football. On loan, the striker was sent to Remo and Vitória. However, without many opportunities at either team, the player is now at Athletic-MG.

What is Carlinhos’ contract situation with Flamengo?

Carlinhos is in the final year of his contract with Flamengo. In other words, after the end of the 2026 season, the striker will be free to sign a new deal with another team. So far, it is worth noting, Mengão has shown no interest in extending the player’s contract for more seasons.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

While Carlinhos is at Athletic-MG, Flamengo’s squad remains focused on the upcoming fixtures of the season. This Sunday (06), Rubro-Negro takes the field to face Remo in the Brasileirão.
