It is worth noting that of those who took part in the gathering, only Bruno Henrique is still at Flamengo. Diego Alves, Diego Ribas, Filipe Luís and Rodrigo Caio have already hung up their boots. Meanwhile, Jorge Jesus recently left Al-Nassr (SAU). Finally, Vitinho currently plays for Corinthians.
Filipe Luis and Rodrigo Caio, in fact, made history again at Flamengo between 2024 and 2025 as head coach and assistant coach, respectively. However, they left the club at the end of last season after winning five titles.
Jorge Jesus announced his departure from Al-Nassr shortly after winning the Saudi League on April 22. The Portuguese coach, who had been in charge of the Arab club since March 2022, is now a free agent and is enjoying a vacation in Rio de Janeiro.
During his stay in the city, besides reuniting with some members of Flamengo’s ‘2019 generation,’ the team responsible for winning the Libertadores and the Brasileirão, Jorge Jesus also showed up at the Maracanã. On Saturday (30), ‘JJ’ watched from a luxury box as the Rubro-Negro beat Coritiba 3-0 in a national league match.
In this way, the former Flamengo coach showed his support for the team, currently managed by fellow Portuguese coach Leonardo Jardim. In fact, Flamengo’s current coach mentioned the possibility of having lunch or dinner with Jorge Jesus while his colleague remains in Brazil.
