After training this Monday morning (11.01), Flamengo presented two more reinforcements for the 2016 season. Left-back Arthur Henrique and defender Antonio Carlos were officially announced by Mais Querido.

Arthur Henrique, 21, joins Flamengo after excelling at América/RN. The left-back came through São Paulo's youth ranks and expressed his satisfaction at joining Flamengo.

"It's a golden opportunity; I'm where everyone wants to be. I came to work and find my place. I'm a little anxious, but it will pass with time. The cast is qualified, but I'm also going to find my place," he said.

Antonio Carlos arrives at Flamengo after playing for Avaí in the 2015 season. The 22-year-old has previously represented the Brazilian U-20 national team and had stints with Fluminense and Corinthians. The defender couldn't hide his joy at being able to represent the Rubro-Negro.

"I'll dedicate myself like a lion in every game and training session. I'll contribute with my quality and leadership. I like Muricy's style, he demands a lot. It has to be that way. I'm sure it will be a great year. Now I'm at Mengão. Flamengo is the greatest in the world," he declared.
