The competition for midfield spots will be intense.
Willians returns to the team and coach Silas will have a big headache when it comes to forming the team.

With Willians' return to the Flamengo squad this Saturday (24.09), coach Silas will have several options to set up his midfield against Palmeiras. In the middle of the week, against Grêmio, the starting lineup was Toró, Correa, Kleberson, and Renato. Willians is expected to return to the team in Correa's place, but the Flamengo manager will only give more information about the team that will take the field after training this Friday afternoon (23.09).
Correa believes the battle for a position will be very strong and emphasizes that Flamengo has everything to gain from it. The battle is between Toró, Willians, Correa, Kleberson, and Maldonado, who has fully recovered from a knee injury, for three midfield spots.
"It's going to be a great competition, and Flamengo is the one who stands to gain from it. They're all high-quality players, with one or two different characteristics, but they're all capable of helping in the best way possible," said the number 7.
The midfielder also emphasizes the group's unity and says there's no vanity in the fight for position. According to him, whatever the coach's decision, everyone will comply.
"That doesn't happen here. The important thing is that Flamengo benefits. What Silas believes is best is what will be done, and we will all respect that. Regardless of whether he starts playing or not, we will always strive to do our best," he added.
