Guerrero and Mancuello: two players whose importance was already known on the field by the Flamengo fans and are now recognized by the international press. The Peruvian and the Argentinian were chosen by the English magazine World Soccer as two of the 500 most important players in the world in 2015.

The list, released at the beginning of each year by the respected publication, enumerates the most important players, not necessarily the best. The criteria used are related to the relevance of those chosen to the team and the championship in which they play. The magazine also lists the players without defining an order of relevance, only alphabetically. The 2015 ranking, referring to the year 2014, included Flamengo's Hector Canteros. The midfielder was chosen at the time for his performances for the club.

In the 2016 list, referring to performances in 2015, Guerrero was chosen for his importance to Brazilian football and to his country's national team. His performances in the Copa América, where he became the only player in history to be top scorer in two consecutive editions, highlighted this position. According to the magazine, the Argentinian Mancuello showed a significant improvement in quality in 2015 after changing positions. The publication also emphasizes Flamengo's efforts to reduce its debt in order to sign players of this caliber.

Guerrero and Mancuello are at Flamengo thanks to the support of the program.
