Flamengo manager swap: comparing Leonardo Jardim and Filipe Luís in 2025 | OneFootball

Flamengo dismissed Filipe Luís to hire Leonardo Jardim, who has more experience

Flamengo introduced, this Thursday (05), the coach Leonardo Jardim, who arrives to replace Filipe Luís. However, the change raises skepticism among the Flamengo fans. This is because, in numbers, the Brazilian performed better in 2025.

After all, Filipe Luís's Flamengo outperformed Jardim's Cruzeiro in last year's Brasileirão. Furthermore, the performance of the former left-back was 14.9% higher than that of the Portuguese coach. However, the Portuguese is more experienced in the role.

What are the numbers of Filipe Luís vs. Leonardo Jardim in 2025?

It is worth considering, however, that last year's Cruzeiro had a weaker squad compared to Flamengo. Additionally, Jardim had fewer games as he took over with the season already underway and participated in fewer competitions.

How long has Leonardo Jardim been a coach?

While his predecessor was just beginning his career as a left-back, Leonardo Jardim was already a coach in Portugal. In 2004, the Portuguese started at Camacha (POR), left the country in 2013 to work in Greece, France, and Arabia before arriving in Brazil.

When do Flamengo and Fluminense face each other?

In Leonardo Jardim's debut, Flamengo faces Fluminense this Sunday (08). The Rio de Janeiro classic takes place from 6 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã, for the single-match final of the Campeonato Carioca.

Thus, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the Flamengo vs. Fluminense match through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air TV), GE TV (YouTube), SporTV (cable channel), and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the final.
