Be sure that Flamengo will spare no effort to minimise this pain.“The club is collaborating with the authorities so that the causes of the fire can be cleared.“No one but us has full interest for this to happen. Everyone in the club is in mourning.”Gilberto Silva, the former Arsenal and Brazil midfielder, joined talkSPORT to discuss the heartbreaking incident.“It is very, very sad,” he said. “It’s quite normal for clubs in Brazil to have these hotel homes for their youth players, and this tragedy is something very unexpected.“My condolences to all of them and their families, and everyone help Flamengo in this very sad moment.”Some of the countrys most famous footballers have played for Flamengo, including Zico, Leonardo,Romario and Ronaldinho.
