What are the possible punishments for Flamengo's Bruno Henrique?

The backstage of Flamengo remains agitated amid the situation of Bruno Henrique. This is because the striker is still being investigated for alleged involvement with sports betting. In this sense, the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) will judge the case of the number 27, starting at 09h (Brasília time) this Thursday (04), in Rio de Janeiro.

Therefore, if found guilty, Bruno Henrique could face up to two years of suspension. This is because the accumulated penalties for the Flamengo striker range from 360 to 720 days off the pitch, suspension from 12 to 24 matches and three fines from R$ 100 to R$ 100,000.

What does Bruno Henrique's defense say about the trial?

The defense of Bruno Henrique remains active in the process. For the professionals, the Justice of the Federal District, where he is being criminally prosecuted, would not have jurisdiction to deal with the case. In addition, the lawyers believe that the situation should be taken to Federal Justice. Therefore, all acts should be annulled.

What happened to Bruno Henrique?

At the end of the Brasileirão 2023, Bruno Henrique received a yellow card in the last minutes of the game against Santos, in Brasília. Later, the athlete would receive the red card. Three betting houses suspected abnormal investments for the striker's warning. Then, the situation got complicated.

Thus, the Civil Police captured Bruno Henrique's cell phone during an operation, and conversations between the player and his brother about the card before the game were revealed. Despite this, the athlete denies having forced the yellow card. At the time, the number 27 was pending and would not play the next match after the warning.

What is Flamengo's next match?

With Bruno Henrique available, Flamengo returns to the field only on September 14, when they face Juventude. The ball rolls at 16h (Brasília time), at Alfredo Jaconi, for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring the most rubro-negro coverage on the internet, through YouTube, the website and social networks.
