Preparation friendlies do not usually generate much interest, although there are some exceptions. One of them could be a hypothetical meeting between Flamengo and Inter Miami next year. According to  Globo Esporte , the Brazilian club would intend to organize a match with Lionel Messi’s team in early 2024.

Although the 2023 season is still ongoing, Mengao has already begun planning its summer preseason. The club’s idea would be to do 10 days of work in the United States, and take advantage of the opportunity to play against a rival that has become very popular since the arrival of the Argentine star.

An important preseason for Tite

In addition to a possible duel with the Herons, the Rio de Janeiro team would have had talks to coordinate friendlies against River Plate of Argentina, Atlético Nacional of Colombia and the Mexican team. Although not all of them would fit into their tight schedule, since Flamengo would only spend the second half of January on North American soil.

Whatever his rivals, the next preseason will be important for Tite, who took charge of the team a few weeks ago, with the pressure to achieve results quickly. In January 2024, he will have the opportunity to plan the next campaign with more work time.
