Flamengo released, this Saturday (15), the list of players called up to face Mirassol this Sunday (16). The big news is the return of Luiz Araújo for the 23rd-round Brasileirão match at Maião.
See the list:
Therefore, Luiz Araújo has recovered from the knee injury he suffered against Olimpia (PAR) in a mid-season friendly during the World Cup. In addition, Everton Cebolinha has recovered from the flu that kept him out of the match against Cruzeiro on Wednesday (12).
Alex Sandro continues to follow the recovery plan established by Flamengo’s Medical Department. Meanwhile, Bruno Henrique is still feeling pain in the area of the injury suffered in the match against Cruzeiro last Wednesday (12), and was not included in the squad for the game against Mirassol.
Nico De La Cruz complained of pain in his left thigh. After imaging tests, a muscle injury in the area was confirmed. The player is undergoing treatment with the club’s Medical Department. Vitão continues to follow the recovery plan established by Flamengo’s Medical Department.
So, without Bruno Henrique, Leonardo Jardim could line up: Rossi; Guilhermo Varela, Danilo, Léo Pereira and Ayrton Lucas; Erick Pulgar, Jorginho and Arrascaeta; Gonzalo Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
After Palmeiras’ defeat to Fluminense, Mengão can cut the gap to four points if Mirassol lose. However, the Maião team does not want to lose, as they are only one point ahead of Santos, the first club inside the relegation zone.
So, the Most Beloved wants to beat Mirassol starting at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (16). The ball rolls at Maião for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão, with Fla in second place and Mirassol in 15th, two positions above the relegation zone.
Coluna do Fla brings all the details about Flamengo in the 2026 season. So, stay tuned to the website, social media, and YouTube. In addition, Record (free-to-air TV), Cazé TV (YouTube), and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the match against Mirassol.
