Due to the internet broadcasting of images from yesterday's regrettable episode in Gávea, the family of player Morales prevented his transfer to Flamengo.

The player had already agreed on his salary, his ticket had been issued and his accommodation booked.

The incalculable institutional damage caused by vandals caused the club to lose important reinforcement for our return to the Brazilian championship.
