Former Flamengo player José Armando Ufarte, who played for Flamengo from 61 to 64, visited Granja Comary in Teresópolis this Sunday. The current Spain assistant coach received an autographed jersey (number 7) from the players and took the opportunity to reminisce about his time with the club, where he won the state championship in 63.

"It was a remarkable achievement. It was unforgettable. A historic day," said Ufarte, 66.

Vice President of Football Kléber Leite also commented on the former player's visit. He also took the opportunity to reminisce about his time as a radio broadcaster and interviewed Ufarte for the newly created Fla-TV.

"I saw two of his games: one win and one loss. It's a pleasure to have him here visiting us. I even took the opportunity to interview him," Kléber stated.
