Flamengo continues to make moves behind the scenes to strengthen its youth and professional squads

In recent months, Flamengo has undergone a restructuring of the club's youth categories, including renewing contracts. In this regard, 16-year-old forward Emanuel Silva signed his first professional contract with Mengão, complete with a multimillion-dollar termination clause.

One of the main names in the under-17 category, Emanuel signed a contract with Flamengo for three years. In addition, Mengão protected itself from European interest and established a termination clause of 50 million euros (R$ 311.6 million). The information is from ‘Flabase’.

Who is Emanuel Silva?

At just 16 years old, Emanuel Silva de Oliveira plays as a left winger for Flamengo, being one of the main promises of the 2009 generation.

It's worth noting that Emanuel joined Flamengo in 2019, after standing out in the Copa da Integração, an important youth tournament in Araguaína (TO).

What are Emanuel's numbers in 2025?

In the current season, Emanuel has taken the field 21 times with the Flamengo shirt, in games of the Brasileirão, the Carioca and the Copa Rio. Thus, the forward has scored nine goals, in addition to 1,207 minutes.

How is Flamengo's Under-17 team doing in 2025?

The under-17 team of Flamengo, at this moment, has played 51 games in the 2025 season, with 30 wins, ten draws, and 11 losses. In the Carioca, the Rubro-Negro finished as runners-up after losing to Botafogo, while it was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Brasileirão.

Therefore, Flamengo 'remains alive' in the Copa Rio Under-17 and comes from a 1-0 victory against Vasco last Saturday (04). At this moment, the Rubro-Negro is in third position in the tournament, with 17 points accumulated. It's worth noting that Fluminense is currently leading the championship.
