Flamengo has already informed the market that it will not negotiate its starting players. However, some of the team’s stars were announced, in a joking tone, by the modest Linhares, from Espírito Santo. Arrascaeta, Bruno Henrique, Léo Ortiz, Everton Cebolinha, and Léo Pereira posed with the team’s jersey, with their name and number.
“Players from Clube de Regatas do Flamengo were gifted with the Blue Owl’s jersey!”, wrote Linhares on social media. This is the second time that Flamengo players have posed with the team’s shirt. In December of last year, Rossi and Matheus Cunha, now at Cruzeiro, were also gifted.
Founded in 2001, Linhares Futebol Clube’s greatest achievement is the title of Capixaba Champion in 2007. In addition, the team was runner-up twice, in 2011 and 2014. However, the club is currently going through a crisis and now plays in the second division of the Espírito Santo state championship.
After ‘giving some support’ to Linhares, the Flamengo players remain focused on their upcoming commitments. This Friday (13th), for example, even during Carnival, the squad trained in the morning, aiming for the quarterfinals of the Campeonato Carioca.
Next Sunday (15th), Flamengo faces Botafogo, starting at 5:30 pm (Brasília time), at Nilton Santos Stadium, the Engenhão. The winner will face Madureira in the semifinal. This Friday (13th), the Suburban Tricolor eliminated Boavista, with a 2-1 victory.
The Rio derby will be broadcast by Globo, to much of Brazil, on free-to-air TV. In addition, GETV (YouTube) and Premiere (via pay-per-view) will show the match. However, the best and most Flamengo-focused coverage will be from Coluna do Fla, which will be at the stadium with all the details of the match.
