Flamengo is experiencing a prominent phase of the season, led by Filipe Luís, who has taken on the technical command and has given priority to maintain their main athletes at high level. Among these, Arascaeta is appointed by the coach as a key piece, despite being the absence against Internacional in Libertadores. For Filipe Luís, Uruguayan is, together with Kaio Jorge, from Cruzeiro, one of the best Brazilian football players in 2025.
In fact, the red-black commander highlighted the moment of T-shirt 10, highlighting his ability to contribute to objectives and assistance constantly over the years. According to his evaluation, Armetaa has crossed the best phase since he arrived at the club, something that attributes to the relationship of trust built from the times when they acted together.

“There is no irreplaceable nobody. Now, we are talking about what is probably together with Kaio Jorge, the best player in Brazil this year. It is a distinctive star.
As for the reinforcements, Filipe Luís commented on the Carrasal premiere, hired by 12 million euros (R $ 77 million). Although she sees Colombian as an immediate reserve of Armeta, the coach admits the possibility of climbing them together in certain games. For him, the versatility of the player, who can act both in the center and on the sides of the field, increases the tactical options for the team.
“Carrascal adapts perfectly to this same position as Armeta. But he himself clarified that he can play outside, both on the right and on the left side.”
However, Filipe Luís recognized that Carrasal had no brilliant performance in the 1-0 victory over the international, due to the moment of departure and collective performance in the second half. However, he strengthened the commitment to cut the athlete so that he can earn space and identify with fans.
In the external analysis, the former Vampeta midfielder evaluated the scenario of Libertadores after the triumph of Flamengo in the first stage against Internacional. For him, the advantage obtained in Maracanã is significant, especially for the quality of the cast and the solid way of playing the Rio team.
“I think it’s a very, very good advantage. Flamengo has a very strong cast. Look at the changes, the options that Filipe Lus has in the bank.”
Despite the optimistic forecasts, Filipe Luís maintains caution’s speech. For the coach, the dispute is still open and the goal of Beira-Rio is to look for a new victory to consolidate the classification.
“We did 1-0 and we go with this little advantage. There is nothing defined, it is totally open. We have to go back to the second game to win.”
