Fluminense lose debut of big-money signing against Flamengo, here’s why | OneFootball

What happened with Savarino before the Flamengo vs Fluminense match?

Flamengo faces Fluminense this Sunday (25th), for the fourth round of the Campeonato Carioca. For the derby, the team from Laranjeiras will still not be able to count on the debut of midfielder Savarino.

Savarino's absence is due to Fluminense not being able to register the player in time in the CBF’s Daily Information Bulletin (BID). Therefore, the Venezuelan's debut will only happen in the club's first match of the Brasileirão, which will be against Grêmio, next Wednesday (28th).

HOW MUCH DID FLUMINENSE PAY FOR THE SIGNING OF SAVARINO?

It’s important to note that Savarino arrived at Fluminense after a few seasons with Botafogo. To take the player from their rival, the tricolor club paid 4.5 million (about R$ 28 million at the current exchange rate) plus the inclusion of the young midfielder Wallace Davi.

WHO ARE THE FLUMINENSE ABSENCES FOR THE MATCH AGAINST FLAMENGO?

Besides Savarino, Fluminense will not have Zubeldía on the sidelines against Flamengo. This is because the coach returned from medical leave this Friday (23rd) and, as a result, the club chose to rest the professional. Therefore, the team will be managed in the derby by assistant Maxi Cuberas. Finally, Cano, Soteldo, and Hércules are under the care of the medical department.

HOW IS FLAMENGO ARRIVING FOR THE MATCH AGAINST FLUMINENSE, FOR THE CARIOCA?

Flamengo will be missing Danilo, Ayrton Lucas, Saúl, and De La Cruz, who are being monitored by the Medical Department. Meanwhile, Arrascaeta is following the preseason planning schedule and is out of the upcoming derby.
