One of Flamengo's new signings for Sunday's derby against Fluminense at Maracanã will be Chilean Gonzalo Fierro. Since last year at Clube da Gávea, the Chilean international has played 12 matches for Flamengo, but has never started a match. His first chance comes in such an important derby for Flamengo.

"I think my time has come. I've always remained calm and collected because I knew the opportunity to prove myself would arise. I'm already fully adapted to the club and my teammates. Now I have to seize this opportunity to catch Cuca's attention. I'm training hard and I expect to play a great game and help Flamengo achieve this victory, which will be very important."
