Gabigol marks 30th birthday with Flamengo message on social media | OneFootball

On Sunday, his 30th birthday, Gabigol replied to a Flamengo post on social media, a message that quickly drew attention.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the club used its channels to congratulate the forward and recall his notable spell at Gávea. He answered by writing: 'Uma vez Flamengo, Flamengo até morrer'.

The phrase, long used by Rubro-Negro fans, spread quickly. Despite playing for Santos, the striker continues to show his identification with Flamengo.

Gabigol arrived at Flamengo in 2019 and swiftly became one of the club’s standout figures. In his first season he was central to Libertadores and Campeonato Brasileiro triumphs.

He scored twice in the historic Libertadores final against River Plate (ARG) in Lima, cementing his place in Flamengo history. His time at the club brought several trophies and a strong bond with the torcida.

He has not hidden that connection. Recently, he said he still supports Flamengo, despite being contracted to Cruzeiro and loaned to Santos.
