Right-back Emerson Royal has barely arrived at Flamengo, but he is already adapted to the club. The player attributes his quick integration to coach Filipe Luís. Thus, the athlete praised the rubro-negro coach and pointed out the commander's influence on the Brazilian National Team.
— Filipe gives me a lot of confidence, he helps me a lot. So much so that the Brazilian National Team has been playing in the system that Flamengo plays, and he talks a lot with me. He knows that I like to cut inside -, said Royal, in an interview with Mengocast this Friday (03).
— 'Royal, stay wide because I want you in this role, I want you to go to the corridor, the National Team plays this way too. This could open possibilities for you to return to the National Team' -, the full-back tells about Filipe Luís's attitude.
Emerson Royal arrived at Flamengo at the end of July. The full-back was at Milan (ITA) and had Besiktas (TUR) as his destination. However, the Most Beloved paid nine million euros (about R$ 58 million) for the player.
Already in early August, Royal debuted as a starter at Flamengo. On the occasion, the Most Beloved drew 1-1, for the Brazilian Championship, at Castelão. After the match, the full-back stated that he was far from his best physical form.
With Royal available, Flamengo faces Bahia this Sunday (05). The match takes place from 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 27th round of the Brasileirão.
Thus, as tradition dictates, the Coluna do Fla will bring the best coverage on the internet, through YouTube, the website and social networks. However, SporTV (closed channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the duel between Flamengo and Bahia.
