Flamengo chief on Bruno Henrique talks: "His place is..." | OneFootball

Jersey 27 has a contract with Flamengo until December 2026

One of the greatest idols in the history of Flamengo, Bruno Henrique has a contract with the club only until December of this year. With that, the president of Fla, Bap, opened up about the chance of renewing with jersey 27.

In summary, Bap stated that the place for Bruno Henrique is at Flamengo. Furthermore, the president emphasized that the player can stay at the red-black club as long as he wants to play football, meaning he will only leave when he decides to retire.

— The intention of Flamengo is to keep Bruno Henrique as long as he wants to play ball. That's it, simple as that. Beyond that (the titles), Bruno has an amateur spirit that enchants us, beyond what the fans see on the field -, 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-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. However, in 2026, jersey 27 is facing a dilemma regarding whether to stay or not at the Red-Black.

Recently, Bruno Henrique even took to social media to deny rumors that he had rejected a proposal from Flamengo: “The meeting with my agent/staff hasn't even happened yet and they're already saying things. Let's see these fake news, huh…” he posted.

Is the renewal already under negotiation?

The fact is, as Bruno Henrique said, the meetings about the forward's contract renewal with Flamengo have not yet taken place. However, with a contract valid until December 2026, jersey 27 remains eager to continue wearing the Sacred Mantle if he continues playing football.

Initially, at the end of last season, Bruno Henrique hinted that he might retire in 2026. However, the player's staff has already stated that the athlete should continue playing for a longer time.
