By: André | Comments 3 Comments

Sorry guys. I miscalculated. It is a R$ 105 million (US$ 52,5 million) on a five-year contract.
On pre-sale (one week period), Flamengo already sold 204.840 shirts. Incredible, considering that Nike used to sell around 120.000 jerseys a year.
Here is a image comparing the old shirt and the new one. Besides that, you can also compare [...]

Adriano, L’Imperatore di Rio de Janeiro

Adriano is officially back. He debuted last Sunday against Atlético-PR and what an amazing way to restart his career. He scored one goal, forced the other team to score an own goal and was the best player. Incredible!

Right and wrong

By: André | Comments 6 Comments

Some say Flamengo is not working to improve, that the board is a complete mess and they are not trying to make the best decisions to the team. I disagree. True must be said, so here I am to do it.
It’s known that Flamengo is on the hands of the same people for decades, just [...]
