WHAT IS FLAMENGO’S PLAN DURING THE WORLD CUP PERIOD?

During the World Cup period, the players who were not called up are on vacation. In short, their return is scheduled for this Friday (19) at CT Ninho do Urubu. In this way, coach Leonardo Jardim will start to have free time to get to know the rubro-negro squad even better.

In addition to the training period at the CT, Flamengo will also travel to Portugal, where they will hold a mid-season training camp. Finally, once this entire process is complete, Mengo returns to the pitch to face Chapecoense away from home on June 22 in the Brasileirão.
