After leaving Ponte Preta in May this year, David Braz agreed to join Brasiliense for the rest of the 2026 season. As a result, the Federal District team announced the defender’s arrival on social media.

How was David Braz’s spell at Flamengo?

Flamengo announced the signing of David Braz in July 2009, after agreeing to a loan deal with Panathinaikos (GRE). Then, a year later, the Rubro-Negro decided to keep the center back permanently and bought him from the Greek club. Wearing the Sacred Shirt, the player made 99 appearances, with five goals and one assist.

In addition, the center back played a direct role in Flamengo’s Brazilian league title in 2009. With Adriano and Petkovic, the Most Beloved came from behind to beat Grêmio 2-1 in the final round of that year’s Brasileirão and won the national championship. David Braz scored the equalizer in the decisive match against the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

What is Brasiliense’s next match?

Brasiliense returns to the field this Sunday (21) to face Goiatuba in the first leg of the round of 32 of Série D of the Brasileirão. The match kicks off at 4 pm (Brasília time). If he is registered in time, David Braz could be available for the team.

What are Flamengo’s transfer priorities?

Flamengo has two transfer priorities for the window after the World Cup, which opens on July 20. The club’s board wants to bring in a new center forward, since Pedro is the only natural number 9 in the squad.

In addition, Flamengo believes it needs to sign a left back. That is because, although Alex Sandro is close to renewing his contract, Ayrton Lucas could leave the club in the next transfer window.

What is Flamengo’s planning like?

At the moment, the Flamengo players who were not called up for the World Cup are enjoying their final days of vacation. The Rubro-Negro squad is scheduled to report back this Friday (19) at CT Ninho do Urubu.

In addition, Flamengo plans to hold a midseason training camp in Portugal during the break for the World Cup, including three friendlies. In Portuguese territory, the Rubro-Negro will face Falkirk (SCO), Birmingham (ENG), and Benfica (POR).
