Flamengo are set to face Santos at the Maracanã. The match is valid for the 10th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.
Pedro will be looking to end his goal drought. He also has the chance to reach historic milestones previously set by Gabigol.
Pedro’s Potential Milestones
If Pedro scores, he will have 161 goals for Flamengo. This would tie him with Gabigol as the top scorer of the century for Flamengo. It would also make them the sixth highest scorer in the club’s history.
Additionally, a goal would make Pedro the fourth-highest scorer in the history of the Maracanã. He would have 112 goals, alongside Doval, an Argentine forward who played for Flamengo and Fluminense in the 1970s.
Pedro’s Recent Form
Pedro has gone three matches without scoring. His last goal was in the 3-0 victory over Botafogo. The match took place at the Nilton Santos on 19 March, in the Campeonato Brasileiro.
In the 3-0 defeat to Red Bull Bragantino, Pedro started but was substituted. He came off in the 22nd minute of the second half and had a quiet game.
Gabigol’s Santos Return
Pedro and Gabigol played together at Flamengo for four years. During this time, managers were often asked if both players could start in the team.
Gabigol eventually spent more time on the bench. Unhappy, he moved to Cruzeiro at the start of 2025.
In 2026, Gabigol was loaned by Cruzeiro to Santos until the end of the year. Santos is the club where he began his career.
