By Communication - Flamengo - in
A big name is arriving in Flamengo's women's soccer. Sole Jaimes, who played for Napoli-ITA last season and has a solid career in Brazil with excellent performances, is Flamengo's new signing for the remainder of the year. She has already signed a contract and will report to the club after the Copa América.
The Argentine began playing for Boca Juniors, but she really caught attention when she arrived in Brazil to play for Foz Cataratas-PR. With a keen eye for goal, great mobility, and spectacular attacking skills, Jaimes shone at Santos, where she won a national title, scoring 19 goals in 21 games. These are staggering numbers that speak for themselves.
Traded to Tianjin-CHI, Sole later played for Lyon-FRA and won the Champions League and the French Championship. In 2021, she returned to our country and stood out again, with goals and outstanding performances. The forward also has an extensive resume for the national team and has already competed in the World Cup and Pan American Games. Now at Mais Querido, the "Girl from Gávea" (the "Girl from Gávea") aims to make history and bring joy to the Biggest Fanbase in the World.
"It's a great joy to return to Brazil and wear the Sacred Mantle. I'll give my all to help the team win games, and to do so, there will be no lack of determination or dedication. I'm thrilled with this opportunity and can't wait to join my teammates to pursue our goals. This is Flamengo," said the number 99.
"We're taking another important step forward in our planning. Flamengo's plan has always been to move forward smoothly, and we're committed to staying within budget. The arrival of Sole, as well as the other girls, further elevates the team's level as we pursue our goals. The fans can expect us to continue working hard to constantly bring new developments. The idea is to improve year after year," said Vitor Zanelli, vice president of Women's Football, Youth, and Futsal.
