Pedro has been putting in strong performances again in a Flamengo shirt since the arrival of Leonardo Jardim. Because of his good form, Brazil national team coach Carlo Ancelotti is expected to go to the Maracanã on Sunday (03) to closely assess the number 9.
Flamengo face Vasco on Sunday (03), at the Maracanã, in the 14th round of the Brazilian Championship. Pedro, who did not start on Wednesday (29) against Estudiantes (ARG), is expected to return to the starting lineup.
Yes! Pedro still has a chance of going to the World Cup with the Brazil national team. That is because Carlo Ancelotti is considering taking a center forward to the tournament. Besides Gávea’s number 9, Igor Thiago of Brentford (ENG) is also highly rated by the coach.
Pedro has scored nine goals in Flamengo’s last 13 matches this season. In addition, Gávea’s number 9 has provided two assists for his teammates. In other words, the player is in excellent form this season.
Flamengo’s match against Vasco is scheduled for 4:00 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (03), at the Maracanã, in the 14th round of the Brazilian Championship. Therefore, Rede Globo will broadcast the clash on free-to-air TV, in addition to Premiere on pay-per-view.
