WHAT WAS THE MESSAGE PUBLISHED BY FILIPE LUÍS?

“Today I say goodbye to the club that was my home for almost 7 years, Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. There were 9 titles as a player and 5 titles as a coach. Achievements that went down in history, unforgettable nights, and hugs that will never leave my memory. Every trophy lifted came with sweat, hard work, courage, and above all, love for this badge. I thank the board that gave me the opportunity to live through such a victorious cycle, and I will always be grateful for the trust placed in me to build such a remarkable path. To the players, my eternal respect. You are giants. You are men of character, dedicated professionals, champions on and off the field. Nothing we achieved would have been possible without the commitment and unity of each one. I cannot fail to thank you for the chance to say goodbye to you today. More than a farewell, it was a demonstration of respect, affection, and unity that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. You turned a difficult moment into something unforgettable. Every hug, every word, and every gesture showed that our work went beyond the four lines. We built something real. Thank you for honoring this shirt every day and for honoring me as a coach and as a person. You will always have my respect, my admiration, and my gratitude. And to the fans… you are the soul of it all. You pushed, demanded, cheered, suffered, and believed. We were champions TOGETHER! I carry in my heart every chant, every applause, and even every criticism, because it was all part of this journey. I leave in peace, with my head held high and a clear conscience. Football is made of cycles, and ours was HISTORIC. Thank you for everything, Flamengo.”
