Jardim explains Wallace Yan omission for Flamengo: “No help” | OneFootball

Wallace Yan was left out of Flamengo’s last two matchday squads

Flamengo lived up to expectations and beat Grêmio 1-0 this Sunday (10), in the 15th round of the Brasileirão. After the match, Leonardo Jardim was asked about the absence of Wallace Yan, and the coach explained the decision to keep the player out of the squad.

— For the same reason as any player when they are not called up: at this moment, he was not the one who would bring solutions to the team, other players were. But he is a player I count on. A young player, who has talent, I’ve said that before. In this last week, he was not fully integrated to help the team -, he said, before concluding:

— That’s why he stayed working, but certainly, in the near future, he can be a solution as he has been before. We like him, he is an academy boy, but all players have to be integrated into a collective dynamic above all. The foundation that guides our team is our collective performance, and that is our idea -, Jardim concluded.

What is Wallace Yan’s situation at Flamengo?

According to reporting by Coluna do Fla, Wallace Yan’s agents have already given the market the ‘green light’ to make offers. With that, the player’s representatives made it clear that they are not ruling out the athlete’s departure from Flamengo.

It is worth noting that Wallace Yan came very close to leaving Flamengo at the start of 2026. At the time, the forward even said goodbye, saying he was on his way to Red Bull Bragantino, but the deal between the clubs ultimately did not happen.

What are Wallace Yan’s numbers in 2026?

At the moment, Wallace Yan has played nine matches in the 2026 season, with one assist. It is worth noting that, under Leonardo Jardim, the young forward has taken the field in only five matches.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

With Wallace Yan available, Flamengo now turns its focus back to the Copa do Brasil. This Thursday (14), the Rubro-Negro faces Vitória again at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Barradão, in the second leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.

So, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Vitória through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Sportv (cable TV) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Copa do Brasil match.
