Sport lose top scorer for clash with Flamengo in the Brasileirão | OneFootball

Derick Lacerda has six goals in the Brazilian Championship

Sport's situation in the Brazilian Championship is practically irreversible, and the situation has worsened even more. This is because the forward and top scorer Derick Lacerda's contract has ended, and the Pernambuco team will not have the player for the match against Flamengo.

On social media, Sport announced that the forward showed up to train. The club released an official statement this Thursday (06) announcing the termination of the player's contract, who is the team's top scorer in the Brazilian Championship, with six goals.

Thus, Derick Lacerda returns from loan to Cuiabá but will not be able to play in the Brazilian Championship Serie B this season. The forward was part of the exchange with Sport involving Carlos Alberto at the beginning of the Brasileirão.

WHAT IS DERICK LACERDA'S IMPORTANCE TO SPORT?

Currently, Sport has only scored 22 goals in the Brazilian Championship. Of this total, Derick Lacerda is responsible for six. Thus, the former forward of the Pernambuco club was responsible for almost 30% of the team's goals.

WHEN IS SPORT VS FLAMENGO?

Flamengo can relegate Sport on November 15. This is because the Pernambuco team is virtually in Serie B, with only a few rounds left to confirm the drop. Mengão faces the team at Arena de Pernambuco at 6:30 PM (Brasília time).

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?

Unlike Sport, Flamengo is in the fight for the Brazilian Championship title. Thus, the team led by Filipe Luís takes the field on Sunday (09), against Santos, at 6:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the 33rd round of the Brasileirão.
