End of the road? Gonzalo Plata unfollows Flamengo on social media | OneFootball

In addition, the player archived photos related to Flamengo on social media

Last Thursday (26), Flamengo fans noticed that Gonzalo Plata had archived virtually all posts related to Fla on his personal Instagram. Now, this Friday (27), it also emerged that the forward has unfollowed the club on the social network.

In short, Gonzalo Plata unfollowed Flamengo on Instagram. Even so, the club’s official profile still follows the player. The forward’s move caught fans’ attention, with some even talking about it being the ‘end of the road’ for him.

And what about the archived photos?

It is worth noting that Gonzalo Plata archived all posts related to Flamengo on Instagram, with the exception of one photo with the 2025 Copa Libertadores trophy. Now, the only posts left on the player’s profile are those from the Ecuador national team, Real Valladolid (ESP), Sporting (POR), and Independiente del Valle (EQU). 

What is the Ecuadorian’s situation at Fla?

For some time now, Plata has shown disciplinary issues at Flamengo. With the arrival of Leonardo Jardim, the Ecuadorian was even left out of Flamengo’s last match, against Corinthians on Sunday (22), by technical decision.

Recently, Jardim even explained what has been happening with Plata at Flamengo: “He is a player who is having difficulties integrating […] We need concentration, attitude, and great physical commitment to fight for results,” said the Portuguese coach.

Not surprisingly, head coach Leonardo Jardim gave the red-and-black club’s board the green light to negotiate the player. As a result, the tendency is for Flamengo to sell Plata after the World Cup, when the next transfer window opens.

Is Plata training at Flamengo?

No! However, Plata’s absence from Flamengo is due to the March FIFA international window. That is because the player is on duty with the Ecuador national team, which faces Morocco this Friday (27) at 5:15 PM (Brasília time) in Madrid, Spain.
