The professional squad of Flamengo continues with their pre-season preparations. Meanwhile, rumors have emerged about a possible departure of Gonzalo Plata, the red-black striker. The Ecuadorian even held a farewell party this Sunday (18).
This is because Gonzalo Plata is moving house. Despite this, the Flamengo player, who has a contract valid until June 2029, will continue living in the same condominium located in Barra da Tijuca. This information comes from journalist Isabelle Costa.
According to a report by Coluna do Fla, sources from Flamengo assure that there are no talks to negotiate the Ecuadorian. “We sold Juninho, we sold Wallace Yan. If we sell Plata, soon we won't have a team to play. It makes no sense. It's ridiculous,” they said.
While the under-20 team of Flamengo competes in the first rounds of the Carioca, the main squad continues with their pre-season. After having Sunday (18) off, the players returned to the Ninho do Urubu training center on the morning of this Monday (19).
Flamengo returns to the field this Wednesday (21) to face Vasco in the third round of the Carioca Championship. Thus, the 'Clássico dos Milhões' takes place at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Maracanã.
As tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details about the game between Flamengo and Vasco, through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (open channel), GE TV (YouTube), SporTV (cable channel) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Carioca classic.
