By: Rodrigo Lima

Flamengo has a number of absences for the match against Coritiba due to the start of the national teams’ preparations for the World Cup. Given this situation, coach Leonardo Jardim called up reinforcements from the youth academy to join the squad in training with a focus on this Saturday’s (30) clash at the Maracanã.

According to information gathered by the Coluna do Fla reporting team, the players mentioned are going through a kind of ‘trial’ with Jardim. That is because, since arriving at Flamengo, the Portuguese coach has made it clear that he likes to observe and give opportunities to young players. That has not happened yet at the Rubro-Negro, because the coach has not yet had the time due to the schedule.
