Flamengo and Corinthians will face each other next Sunday (01), in a match valid for the Supercopa do Brasil. Before the clash between the teams, the São Paulo side released defender Pedro Tchoca to Torino (ITA).
Corinthians finalized the loan of Pedro Tchoca to the Italian team this Monday (26). The agreement is valid until the end of June, when the European season ends. If the defender plays in ten matches for at least 45 minutes, Torino will be required to exercise the purchase option for the player for 4.5 million euros (about R$ 28 million at the current exchange rate).
While Pedro Tchoca is on his way out, Corinthians welcomes the arrivals of Kaio Cesar and Matheus Pereira. These players will be prepared to play against Flamengo next Sunday (01).
Another player receiving ‘special attention’ before the final is Memphis Depay. The Dutchman has not yet played in the 2026 season, but is expected to get some minutes against Bahia on Wednesday (28), in the Brasileirão. As a result, the player will be available to Dorival Júnior for the match against Flamengo.
Flamengo had to bring back some starters early in the Carioca due to the team's position in the league table. Because of this, most of the main squad players have already played this season. Players such as Arrascaeta and Jorginho, for example, are not on this list. The Uruguayan, in fact, was prepared to return in the team's debut in the Brasileirão.
The match between Flamengo and Corinthians will take place at 4:00 pm (Brasília time) this Sunday (01), at Estádio Mané Garrincha, in Brasília. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV will have the most ‘rubro-negro’ on-site coverage on the internet on YouTube, as well as on the website and social media.
Before that, however, Flamengo returns to the field to face São Paulo, in the 1st round of the Brasileirão. The ball rolls at 9:30 pm (Brasília time) this Wednesday (28), at Morumbis. As usual, Coluna do Fla TV will bring all the details of the match.
