Samuel Lino nears career-best after starring for Flamengo against Coritiba | OneFootball

Samuel Lino may be in his best Flamengo form after a two-goal, one-assist display against Coritiba on Saturday 30, leaving him close to a career-best tally.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the forward is closing on a personal landmark after that 18th-round showing in the Campeonato Brasileiro. Betano, the Brasileirão sponsor, named the No 16 player of the match as Flamengo moved to 34 points.

In 2021/22 with Gil Vicente, he registered 14 goals and five assists across 38 games. This season he has six goals and nine assists in 32 appearances.

He needs five more goal involvements to match that best return. Lino has been at Flamengo for 11 months, having arrived in July 2025.

The club paid 22 million euros, R$ 141 million, to Atlético de Madrid for the winger, with a contract running to 2029.

Flamengo now pause during the World Cup. The squad will travel to Portugal for a mid-season camp, with three friendlies scheduled for July.
