After Flamengo’s 2-1 victory over Red Bull Bragantino this Wednesday (23rd), Arrascaeta commented on the controversy involving De La Cruz and the club’s medical department.

But we know that, at Flamengo, I’ve been here for six years and a lot of things always happen — Arrascaeta began, before adding:

— Even so, we need to stay focused on the field, trying to do our best. And off the field, we always try not to let this become a problem. But sometimes specific situations arise that are very difficult — concluded the number 10, during the mixed zone at Estádio Municipal Cicero De Souza Marques.

Saúl starts learning Portuguese and plans to hire a teacher to speed up adaptation to Flamengo

Flamengo announced last Tuesday (22nd) the signing of midfielder Saúl Ñíguez. At 30 years old, the Spanish player arrives to wear the number 8 shirt of the Most Beloved and does not hide his excitement for the challenge. In fact, to evolve faster in Brazil, Saúl has already started studying Portuguese, aiming for better communication at the club and also with fans.

Born in Spain, Saúl spent most of his career at Atlético de Madrid and only played outside the country in the 2021/22 season, when he played for Chelsea (ENG). Thus, the athlete rarely had to give up his native language in daily life. Now at Flamengo, Saúl has started to have more direct contact with the Portuguese language and his next goal is to hire a teacher.
