Flamengo is known for having had several players who played in European football, especially at the top clubs of the ‘Old Continent’. So far, for example, seven players have worn the Sacred Mantle and also played for PSG (FRA).

For this reason, Coluna do Fla brings you the list of all the players who have worn the Flamengo and PSG jerseys. David Luiz and other athletes are some examples of stars who have played for both teams.

Ronaldinho Gaúcho

Ronaldinho Gaúcho, first of all, played for PSG before playing for Flamengo. The Brazilian arrived in France in the 2001 season and played there for only two years, as he transferred to Barcelona (ESP) in 2003.

His move to Flamengo happened only in the 2011 season. At the time, the Most Beloved paid about three million euros to have the player, who won only one title: the Campeonato Carioca in 2011.

David Luiz

David Luiz, unlike Ronaldinho Gaúcho, played for Flamengo recently. The defender wore the Sacred Mantle from 2021 until 2024, when he bid farewell to the Most Beloved to sign with Fortaleza.

With the PSG jersey, David Luiz played for two seasons, between 2014 and 2015. Soon after, the defender went on to play for Chelsea (ENG) and Arsenal (ENG) before joining Flamengo.

Leonardo

Leonardo made history with the Flamengo jersey, mainly for having been developed by the Rubro-Negro. The former player wore the Sacred Mantle starting in 1987 and won four titles: Taça Guanabara in 1988 and 1989, the Brasileirão in 1987, and the Copa do Brasil in 1990.

Soon after, Leonardo transferred to PSG in 1996 on a free transfer after playing for Kashima (JAP). However, the former athlete played for only one season before moving to Milan in the 1997 season.

Reinaldo

Just like Leonardo, Reinaldo is also a product of Flamengo. The former player started in the youth ranks of the Most Beloved and won the Campeonato Carioca in 1999, 2000, and 2001, the Copa Mercosul in 1999, and the Copa dos Campeões in 2001.

Due to his excellent performance with the Flamengo jersey, Reinaldo was sold to PSG. The French club paid around 10 million euros to the Most Beloved to have the former player competing in the French Championship.

Vampeta

Vampeta played for PSG and Flamengo, but for a short time at both clubs. The former player wore the French team’s jersey at the start of the 2001 season and transferred to the Most Beloved in August of that same year. However, at the end of 2001, the former athlete signed with Corinthians.

Aloísio Chulapa

Copa Ouro and the Campeonato Carioca in 1996. These were the titles that Aloísio Chulapa won with the Flamengo jersey after leaving CRB’s B team in the 1994 season. His move to PSG happened in 2001, but he played there for only two years, leaving in 2003.
