Zico puts Jorginho on the spot, midfielder dodges Flamengo legend | OneFootball

Jorginho Participated in a Show Alongside Flamengo Idols Zico and Leandro

Two of the greatest idols in the history of Flamengo, Zico and Leandro, recorded the show ‘Resenha do Galinho’ with midfielder Jorginho. During the conversation on FlamengoTV, the former full-back was asked if the former Italy national team player would have a spot in the Mengão of 1981. The end of the conversation would leave the midfielder in an awkward position.

— Of course (there's a spot in the '81 team), make room, put 12 (players). Take out Raul (goalkeeper) and add another one (laughs). It's complicated to take someone out of that team of ours, but there are many who could join, for sure. But in the squad, definitely (Jorginho is in). We made a team that will hardly be repeated, with eight or nine players from the youth academy —, said Leandro.

Later, Zico questioned Jorginho about whose place he would take in the world champion team, giving Andrade, Adílio, and Vitor as options. Thus, the midfielder was ‘on the fence’. “I didn't have the opportunity to watch the games, I saw videos. It's hard to choose one, I can't do it”.

HOW IS JORGINHO DOING AT FLAMENGO?

With good football and a lot of dedication, Jorginho has been enchanting Flamengo fans with every game. The midfielder was even a standout in the 3-2 victory over Palmeiras last Sunday (19), at Maracanã, for the Brasileirão.
