Basket contained club's children's kit and a card written by Marcio Braga
LANCEPRESS!
One day after being born (March 25), Felipe Coimbra, Zico's grandson, was given a Flamengo product kit by the red-black board, as well as a handwritten card by president Márcio Braga, all sent in a basket.
Bruno Coimbra, Felipe's father and a die-hard Flamengo fan, was very happy with the gift, thanking Marcio Braga and all the Flamengo fans.
"I wanted to thank Marcio for the gift and also take this opportunity to extend this gratitude to friends, Flamengo fans, and so many people who have shown me so much affection lately. I'm very happy, and now Flamengo fans have gained another fan," he said, gushing in a statement to Zico's official website.
Felipe, who was due to be born in the second week of April, arrived prematurely due to the many sporting events, according to Bruno's joke.
"Look, there are a lot of decisive games ahead. Flamengo has important matches in the Copa Libertadores, Fenerbahçe is battling Chelsea in the Champions League. Do you think he'd want to be trapped inside your belly without being able to see? He came out right away," the son of Flamengo's greatest idol in history joked.
