Flamengo caused a stir on social media by publishing a photo of Johnny Cardoso, a midfielder signed by Atlético Madrid from Betis last July for 30 million euros. This Monday, the Rio club announced the renewal of coach Luís Filipe's contract and, when announcing the news on social media, in a photo carousel, it also published the photo of Johnny Cardoso that Atlético Madrid had used to announce the reinforcement. The photograph was quickly deleted, but the record remained on social media. Contacted by the Brazilian press, the Rio de Janeiro club assumed that it was a “mistake” and that it has no interest in the player who, six months ago, signed a contract valid until 2030 with the colchoneros.
