Who else commented?

“Open your mouth, it's Royal. I gave my age now. Be very welcome!”, joked the rubro-negro idol Olivinha, a two-time world basketball champion. In addition, the athlete is also a six-time NBB champion.

Why Royal?

– Royal comes from jelly. When I was little, they said I cried a lot, and there was an aunt who liked to give nicknames to everyone. So she would say: “Look at Royal, big mouth”. Because there was a commercial: “Open your mouth, it's Royal”. So she called me Royal big mouth, because I always had my mouth open. And it stuck. Today I'm more Royal than Emerson -, explained the right-back in an interview with Flamengo TV.

Quiet negotiation for Flamengo?

Milan (ITA) was already negotiating the player's loan to Besiktas (TUR), with an option to buy for 10 million euros (R$ 65 million). However, Flamengo's interest convinced the Brazilian to change plans. Thus, the expectation is that the player will be introduced at Maracanã before the game against Atlético-MG this Sunday (27).
