Léo Pereira to Flamengo after special milestone: “I have no words…” | OneFootball

What milestone did Léo Pereira reach wearing the Flamengo shirt?

Flamengo thrashed Atlético-MG 4-0 this Sunday (26) in a match valid for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. In addition to the Rubro-Negro victory, Léo Pereira had another reason to celebrate: the milestone of 300 matches for Fla. Thus, the center back looked back on his journey at the club and declared his love for Mengão.

What is Léo Pereira’s current situation?

An undisputed starter for Flamengo, Léo Pereira has played 18 matches in 2026, scoring one goal. In addition, the center back’s strong performances earned him the first call-up of his career to the Brazilian National Team during the March FIFA international window.

It is no surprise, then, that Flamengo plans to begin talks to renew the defender’s contract. Although the center back is under contract until December 2027, Rubro-Negro knows how important the player is and wants to protect itself from possible European interest.

Will Léo Pereira be called up for the World Cup?

Because of his strong performances for Flamengo, Léo Pereira is hopeful of playing in the Copa do Brasil wearing the Brazilian National Team shirt. The center back even made a good impression on Carlo Ancelotti during the last FIFA window, starting in the friendlies against France and Croatia.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

With Léo Pereira available, Flamengo now turns its focus back to the Libertadores. This Wednesday (29), Rubro-Negro will face Estudiantes (ARG) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium, in the third round of the continental tournament.

So, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of Flamengo’s match through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (YouTube) and Paramount+ (streaming) will broadcast the Libertadores match.
