Miss it? Jorge Jesus and ‘2019 generation’ surprise Everton Ribeiro | OneFootball

Everton Ribeiro turned 37 this Friday (10) and received a special call

Flamengo fans felt nostalgic this Friday (10). On the day Everton Ribeiro turned 37, legends from Mengão’s 2019 team got together virtually to congratulate the former red-and-black number 7. On social media, the fans of the Most Beloved melted with nostalgia.

In a video shared on social media from the moment of the call, Jorge Jesus, Diego Alves, Rafinha, Filipe Luís, and Diego Ribas appear on a call with Everton Ribeiro. In the caption, Diego wrote: “I miss you so much, my friends. Happy birthday, Baixola! Love you, brother!”.

AND WHAT ABOUT FLAMENGO’S FANS?

Coluna do Fla’s pages posted the image of the call, and nostalgia took over among the red-and-black faithful. “What team has so many recent idols? This is crazy, 2019 is historic,” wrote one. “Flamengo idols, I miss you so much,” typed another. “This image is here to fill us with longing,” commented another.

SO, WHAT DID THE QUINTET WIN?

With Jorge Jesus in charge, Flamengo won the Libertadores and the Brasileirão in 2019. In addition, at the start of 2020, the quintet lifted the Supercopa, the Recopa, and the Carioca Championship. Besides the Portuguese coach, Rafinha also left Mengão in 2020. But the others made even more history at the club.

The birthday boy of the day, Everton Ribeiro left Flamengo at the end of 2023 and now plays for Bahia. In short, wearing the Sacred Jersey, ‘Miteiro’ won two Libertadores, two Brasileirãos, one Copa do Brasil, three Carioca Championships, two Supercopas, and one Recopa.

SO, WHAT WAS FLAMENGO’S MESSAGE TO EVERTON RIBEIRO?

“The day has come to celebrate the life of one of the club’s great idols of this century. Two-time Brazilian champion (2019 and 2020) and Supercopa champion (2020 and 2021), three-time Carioca champion (2019/20/21), Recopa champion (2020), and Copa do Brasil champion (2022), Everton Ribeiro will always be remembered as one of the captains who took Flamengo to the top of South America in Lima (2019) and Guayaquil (2022). Happy birthday, Miteiro! It was an honor to have you wearing the Sacred Jersey and bringing joy to our people. You and your family will forever be part of the Nation!,” posted Mengão.
