Flamengo is alive in three competitions in the 2025 season. This Sunday (03), left-back Alex Sandro stated that the Rubro-Negro does not prioritize one championship over another and that the team always enters the field to win every game.
— All competitions are priorities, not one or the other. Speaking of this game, we knew it would be difficult. Ceará is a team that plays a lot on the counter-attack, but we did well in the first half and I'm sure we'll come back better in the second -, declared Alex Sandro in an interview at halftime of the game against Ceará, at Arena Castelão.
So far, Flamengo is competing on three fronts this season. In the Brasileirão, the Rubro-Negro has been in the race for the top position since the start of the tournament. In the Copa do Brasil and the Libertadores, the Mengão is in the round of 16, facing Atlético-MG and Internacional, respectively.
Amidst all the commitments this season, Flamengo returned to the market and made more signings in this mid-year transfer window. They are: Samuel Lino, Saúl Ñíguez, Emerson Royal, and Jorge Carrascal. The three mentioned have already debuted and are available to Filipe Luís. Lastly, the last one still needs to have his name registered in the Daily Information Bulletin (BID) of the CBF.
After the game against Ceará, Flamengo 'switches gears' and focuses on the next commitment of the season. On Wednesday (06), the Mengão faces Atlético-MG, for the return leg of the round of 16 in the Copa do Brasil. In short, the match takes place at 7 PM (Brasília time), at Arena MRV. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV, as usual, will show the details and everything that happened in the match, on YouTube.
