Defender Léo Ortiz is one of the highlights of Flamengo this season. Given this situation, the number 3 shirt remains in the sights of European clubs. In an interview on Wednesday (31), the athlete opened up about the 'harassment' he receives and made it clear that his thoughts are on the sequence of commitments to Rubro-Negro.
— Of course, it's a happiness when clubs like these are interested in you. It's a sign that you're doing a great job, but my head is very focused on the game, on the present. With so many games that we have, there's no time to think about things outside –, he stated, before concluding:
— I have a very good staff, with my sister working with me along with my agent. Of course, at some opportune moment on a day without a game, we talk about it. But I leave it in their hands and trust them completely to handle what's best for my career -, Léo Ortiz finalized in an interview in the mixed zone on Thursday (31).
It's not new that Léo Ortiz is being monitored by European clubs. One of the most recent teams to appear is RB Leipzig, from Germany. As reported by Coluna do Fla, the German team made an inquiry about the defender, which was promptly rejected by Flamengo. Additionally, Roma (ITA) and Juventus (ITA), in other periods, also consulted about the player's situation.
With Léo Ortiz available, Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (03) to face Ceará, in the 18th round of the Brasileirão. The game kicks off at 18h30 (Brasília time), at Castelão. Thus, Coluna do Fla TV shows all the details of what happened in the match, on YouTube. Finally, Record (open TV), CazéTV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the match.
