Defender Léo Pereira is on Carlo Ancelotti’s preliminary list for the next call-up to the Brazilian National Team. Given this situation, Flamengo’s number 4 ‘teased’ Pedro at the closing party of the Campeonato Carioca.
During the celebration, which took place on Monday night (09), host Luiz Carlos Júnior asked the defender if he had already spoken with Ancelotti, and he replied: “I don’t have his (Ancelotti’s) number.” Then, in a lighthearted way, number 4 added: “I’ll have to ask Pedro for the number.”

Yes! Defender Léo Pereira is one of the players pre-selected for the next call-up to the Brazilian National Team. Thus, there is anticipation to see if, on March 16th, Flamengo’s number 4 Mengão will be on the list.
Léo Pereira was chosen as one of the best defenders of the Carioca and, as such, is on the State Championship’s Best XI. In addition to the defender, Pedro received the award for best forward and top scorer, while Rossi took home the ‘final hero’ trophy.
With Léo Pereira available, Flamengo faces Cruzeiro this Wednesday (11th), for the fifth round of the Brasileirão. In short, the match kicks off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will cover the details of the match on YouTube, as well as on their website and social media. Finally, Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the match.
