Flamengo and Bruno Henrique begin contract renewal talks | OneFootball

Bap wants Bruno Henrique to retire at Flamengo

One of the greatest idols in the history of Flamengo, Bruno Henrique is under contract with the club only until December of this year. As a result, talks over renewing the number 27’s deal began in recent days.

In short, in recent days, Flamengo contacted Bruno Henrique’s representatives and started renewal talks. Even so, so far there has been no agreement on the terms. The information was first reported by GE. However, both sides have already signaled their interest in keeping the number 27 at the Most Beloved.

Recently, Flamengo president Bap said that, as far as he is concerned, Bruno Henrique should retire wearing the Sacred Shirt. The club president heaped praise on the forward and stressed that the player is one of the squad’s great leaders.

What did Bap say?

— Flamengo’s intention is to keep Bruno Henrique for as long as he wants to keep playing. That’s it, as simple as that. Beyond that (the titles), Bruno has an amateur spirit in his soul that delights us, beyond what the fans see on the pitch -, he said, before adding:

— He is a very important guy for the squad, for the unity of the group. He is a player who embodies, in essence, what we believe to be the red-and-black values. His place is here -, he concluded.

What is Bruno Henrique’s situation?

It is worth remembering that Bruno Henrique has been at Flamengo since 2019 and, alongside Arrascaeta, is the player with the most titles in the club’s history. That is because each of the stars has won 17 trophies wearing the Sacred Shirt.

Currently, the number 27 is recovering from pubalgia, which has already sidelined him for six Flamengo matches this season. However, as the domestic calendar is paused due to the FIFA international break, Bruno Henrique should have time to return to training with the group and come back in one of Fla’s next two matches.

Initially, Flamengo expects Bruno Henrique to be available for Leonardo Jardim against Red Bull Bragantino on April 2, or against Santos on April 5. It is worth noting that the number 27 has not played since the second and decisive leg of the Recopa Sudamericana against Lanús (ARG) on February 26.
