Joaquín Freitas is still having some first-time experiences wearing the Flamengo shirt. For now, the Argentine made it clear that he is looking forward to experiencing the derbies against Vasco and Fluminense. In addition, the young forward pointed out that he still hasn’t had much contact with Colidio since the player left River Plate (ARG) to join the Cruzmaltino side.

– I haven’t had many opportunities to talk to Colidio since we arrived in Brazil, but I already know the rivalry with Vasco and Fluminense is very intense. So I’m really looking forward to seeing what that atmosphere is like in a derby. Watching how the fans behave and the mood in those matches -, said Joaquín Freitas in an interview this Thursday (01).
