Prior to competing in the Club World Cup in 2023 at an undetermined time, Real Madrid will have a lot on their minds. They are aware of one of their possible competitors, though. Flamengo will represent South America as the Copa Libertadores winners after the Brazilian team won its second title in four years and made a third final appearance during that time.
Everton Ribeiro and Pedro, two current Brazil internationals, as well as former La Liga stars Diego, Filipe Luis, and Arturo Vidal, are all on the Flamengo team. The former midfielder for Bayern Munich, Juventus, and Barcelona is well known for his hatred of Los Blancos, and he fired a warning shot amid the celebrations.
During the celebrations, Vidal takes the microphone to shout “Madrid, we will break your a***.” Vidal’s career-long rivalry with Real Madrid has resulted in just four victories and eight losses in 16 games. This includes two red cards and three notably brutal eliminations from the Champions League’s latter stages.
Former Atletico Madrid player also wants revenge against Real Madrid
Veteran Flamengo defender Filipe Luis admits they’re already planning for the Club World Cup after winning the Copa Libertadores. And Luis has hinted he fancies revenge on Real Madrid after losing two Champions League finals against them as an Atletico Madrid player. “Real Madrid took two Champions from me,” said the former Chelsea defender, “ but it wouldn’t be a rematch.
“It would be a nice opportunity for Flamengo to continue making history.” Flamengo defeated Athletico Paranaense in the final on Saturday to reach the Club World Cup, where Real Madrid will be present as European champions.
