Amid the suspension, Flamengo has already decided whether to register Gabigol for the Libertadores

What will the CRF do about Gabigol?

O Flamengo is organizing a specific training location for Gabigol, who should not use Zico’s CFZ, CT. The club’s idol had made his facilities available so that the current number 10 could continue his work.

O Mais Querido will provide a team of professionals to supervise the attacker’s training in a private location, as he cannot use Ninho do Urubu during his suspension.

Gabigol is suspended until April 2025. Flamengo will request the suspensive effect, while it appeals to CAS. The response regarding the athlete’s temporary release takes 5 to 14 days.

According to GE, Gabigol will be among the 50 players who will be registered by Flamengo in the Libertadores group stage. The deadline for submitting the list is 5pm (Brasília time) next Friday (29).

CRF counts on the striker for Liberta

Despite being suspended until April 2025 by the Anti-Doping Sports Justice Court (TJD-AD) due to fraud in an anti-doping test, Gabigol can obtain a suspensive effect during the Libertadores group stage dispute, which takes place from April to May.

Gabigol’s defense, led by lawyer Bichara Neto’s office, will request the suspensive effect. However, this action can only be carried out after the publication of the ruling that determined the suspension, which occurred this Monday (25).

On the Brazilian Doping Control Authority (ABCD) website, the attacker is already listed as a suspended athlete due to fraud in an anti-doping test. Furthermore, the number 10 will not have his contract suspended.

Gabigol is automatically prohibited from even training at CT Ninho do Urubu during the suspension received. Furthermore, of course, he will not be able to participate in games for Flamengo.

Flamengo’s debut in the Libertadores

Gabriel doesn’t even have the playing conditions for the Carioca Championship finalsagainst Nova Iguaçu, and not even for Mais Querido’s debut in the Libertadores, against Millonarios, a Colombian team.

Flamengo debuts in the Libertadores next Tuesday (2), at 7pm (Brasília time), against Millonarios, in Bogotá. The stadium will host a concert by singer Karol G, as a result of which the Colombian team lost part of its capacity for the game due to the assembly of the stage structure.

Millonarios announced that 10,000 places in the South Sector will be closed. With this, the capacity for the duel with Mais Querido will be around 24 thousand. The location was released by the city hall after doubts about where the clash would take place.

In addition to the Colombian team in the continental tournament, Fla will meet an old tormentor: Palestino. The Chilean team is in Mengão’s group. With the famous altitude in its favor, Bolívar, from Bolivia, completes the bracket.
