Flamengo fans criticise Varela after he's seen in a Fluminense shirt | OneFootball

Varela was on the field in the Flamengo vs Fluminense match, for the Carioca 2026

The Flamengo fans gave valuable advice to Guillermo Varela this Friday (30). This is because the defender arrived at Ninho do Urubu to train, but Flamengo supporters approached the athlete to ask for autographs and photos. Soon, the Uruguayan lowered the car window, and a Fluminense shirt left on the car seat became visible to everyone.

“Hey, that shirt isn't good, huh, Varela,” joked a fan. “For God's sake. Final on Sunday and you're with a Fluminense shirt?” teased another Flamengo supporter. “Did you get it as a gift?” asked a Flamengo fan. The situation was recorded by TNT Sports.

Why was Varela with a Fluminense shirt?

While the fans were teasing the professional, the player explained that he exchanged jerseys with a rival in the last Fla-Flu. So, it is likely that the Uruguayan forgot to remove the three-colored garment from the car.

The exchange, however, must have occurred on the way to the locker room after the match. This is because the cameras did not catch the defender with any Fluminense shirt still on the field after the final whistle on Sunday (25).

Does Flamengo have an upcoming final?

As anticipated by the fan in the video, Flamengo has the Supercopa Rei final this Sunday (01). Therefore, Mengão and Corinthians will play at Mané Garrincha, starting at 4 PM (Brasília time), in the federal capital.
