Grêmio intensifies training ahead of decisive Brasileirão clash with Flamengo

Grêmio used the national league break to conduct intensive sessions at the Ulbra Sports Complex in Canoas, culminating in a three‑period, 30‑minute training match against the club’s Sub‑15 boys’ team. Coach Jéssica de Lima emphasized assessing player understanding of recent tactical work and preparing the squad for the upcoming official fixtures. The team’s next competitive match will be against Flamengo on 24 May at the Luso‑Brasileiro Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, a game that could determine Grêmio’s chances of advancing in the season.

Midfielder Miguel Monsalve, whose contract runs to December 2028, featured in recent friendlies versus Cascavel and Chapecoense. He contributed to the second goal in the Cascavel match and showed improved play against Chapecoense, earning renewed confidence from the coaching staff. Argentine club Estudiantes has reportedly inquired about a possible transfer, though no formal offer has been made.
