What was Pedro's message to Flamengo's fans?

Pedro is out of Flamengo's upcoming games! The forward suffered a muscle injury and, therefore, will not be able to take the field with the Sacred Mantle. Thus, the athlete took to social media to send a message to the Nation.

What was Pedro's message to Flamengo's fans?

"Nation, I'm here to say that Flamengo, the moment the club is experiencing, and the games ahead are much bigger than my absence in this final stretch.

I appreciate all your affection, very sad to be out, but confident in the group that dedicates and gives their all every day and in games. Support without stopping as you always do. Everyone there prioritizes the club.

I will be where I have been for much of my life: cheering alongside you.

Today we have the first final. Let's be together supporting and bringing Flamengo the glories it deserves.

It will always be for Flamengo.

The Lord is good ALL the time. "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13"

How did Pedro suffer the muscle injury?

Pedro returned to training with the Flamengo group in recent days, as he progressed in the treatment of his forearm injury. However, on Tuesday (18), the forward felt discomfort in his thigh during the activity.

Thus, Pedro underwent an MRI on Wednesday (19) to determine if there was any injury in the area. The exam results confirmed a muscle contusion in the left thigh.

Pedro, therefore, is out of Flamengo's upcoming games this season. The forward is not ruled out for the Libertadores final against Palmeiras, but the chance of the number 9 being available is slim.

What is Flamengo's next game?

Without Pedro, Flamengo takes the field this Wednesday (19) against Fluminense at Maracanã, for the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship. The match is scheduled for 9:30 PM (Brasília time), with broadcast by Premiere on pay-per-view.
