It is important to note that Jorginho has been embracing this ‘influencer’ side on social media. That way, in addition to strong performances in a Flamengo shirt, the player also takes time to interact with fans in his free time.

IS JORGINHO STARTING IN FLAMENGO VS MEDELLÍN IN THE LIBERTADORES?

For tonight’s clash, coach Leonardo Jardim has already defined Flamengo’s starting lineup. As a result, Jorginho is confirmed in the Rubro-Negro midfield alongside Evertton Araújo and Jorge Carrascal.

Jorginho is one of Flamengo’s main pillars, especially amid the absences the team has been dealing with in midfield. At the moment, Mengo is without Arrascaeta, who has begun the recovery process after surgery on his right clavicle, as well as Erick Pulgar and Lucas Paquetá, who have entered the final stage of recovery from their injuries.

WHEN IS FLAMENGO VS INDEPENDIENTE MEDELLÍN IN THE LIBERTADORES?

With Jorginho available, Flamengo faces Independiente Medellín this Thursday (07), in the fourth round of the Copa Libertadores. In short, the ball starts rolling at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) at Atanasio Girardot Stadium in Colombia.

As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will bring all the details of the match with on-site coverage from Simon Lédo and Mônica Alves on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media. Finally, ESPN (free-to-air channel) and Disney+ (streaming) will broadcast the match.
