A dream come true. Defender Léo Pereira was officially presented on Tuesday afternoon (04), at Ninho do Urubu. In a press conference alongside vice-president Marcos Braz and executive director of football Bruno Spindel, the player spoke of the happiness of wearing the Sacred Mantle.

"I'm happy because it was what I had in mind. I wanted to be here at Flamengo since last year, but it wasn't possible, and now I'm here wearing this giant jersey. Many players have worn this number 4 jersey and left their mark. I'm very happy," admits Léo.

"It's a pleasure to be here to introduce another healthy, qualified athlete, accustomed to being a champion. He's played in every youth division, won the South American Championship, and the Copa do Brasil. We've been trying to sign him for some time," says Marcos Braz.
