And I say with the same clarity that the sustainability of the SNS is not guaranteed just by spending less, but by investing better, with planning, evaluation, good management, and stability. According to António José Seguro, it is necessary to "value careers and retain professionals where they are most needed. It is an essential investment" and "create conditions for younger people to want to build their future" in Portugal – "perhaps the greatest investment we can make in the health of the Portuguese," he pointed out.

Today I have the joy of sanctioning the creation of the Federal University of Northern Frontier, Unifron, in Oiapoque, Amapá. I also sanction the transformation of the Cefet of Minas Gerais and the Cefet of Rio de Janeiro into federal universities. These institutions gain even more strength to train professionals, conduct research, and produce the knowledge that Brazil needs to develop. For a long time, those who governed this country did not want the people to have access to education. We changed this story. I am proud to be the president who has created the most universities and federal institutes in Brazil and to see so many young people change their lives with technical and higher education. There is no country that grows without investing in education, science, and technology. We will continue to advance towards the future, with more production of science and technology made here in Brazil. (translated)
Sasha Alex Sloan, one of the composers of "Never Be the Same," spoke about Camila Cabello: "I love Camila. She is iconic, an incredible songwriter and, by the way, underappreciated as a songwriter. I was with her recently and we were talking about that time. We were just babies (…). But it was also such a pure time, we were just having fun, we were young. (…) Camila came into the booth and sang some crazy melodies. She sang that entire pre-chorus in one take." (translated)

Hey folks! I haven’t been speaking out about things here lately because I feel that usually it fuels darkness and hate, but this is something I feel obligated to talk about. Seeing this disgusting AI deepfake video of me being spread genuinely breaks my heart. I can’t believe that such horrible people exist in this world to even think of creating something like that, let alone make it, and fabricate a narrative of me or ANYONE saying such offensive words. People often forget that we are human with feelings, teenagers and young adults, and we are not made of steel. Doing things like this can be truly harmful. I really appreciate you eyekons who have been asking how I am and sending me love, thank you so much🖤 I really love all of you, and I will always love you. Let’s keep spreading kindness, folks. Because this was absolutely madness. I'm very excited for SNL this weekend!!! And for the return of the tour🥺🖤 much love to all of you 🖤🖤🖤🖤 (translated)
"The technical committee of the Brazilian National Team understands that what is happening with the young player from Brazil is that he does not mature because he does not play. And he does not play here and does not play abroad. So you take the case of Endrick or Estêvão. He leaves here at 18 or 19 years old, arrives in Europe to a top club and does not play. If he does not play, he does not mature!" (translated)
🚨 End of the 12-game limit and creation of a "B team": proposals will be debated by clubs and CBF: The ideas were presented by Guilherme Bellintani, owner of SAF of Londrina. • MORE FREEDOM FOR TRANSFERS Currently, a player can change clubs in the Brasileirão as long as they have not exceeded 12 matches. The proposal is to END this restriction. • CREATION OF THE "B TEAM" Bellintani also proposed allowing clubs from Series A, B, or C to have a B team competing in official competitions, as Barcelona, Benfica, and Porto do. The idea is to create an intermediate step between the youth team and the professional team, providing a schedule and games for young players who are not yet ready for the main team. The proposals will be discussed at a future meeting between the clubs and the CBF. (translated)
🚨 Clubs support the CBF's thesis that there are too many foreigners in the Brasileirão; managers defend more space for young Brazilians. • ALEXANDRE MATTOS (football director of Santos): "Brazil has always been a training country, but in recent years, it has become a buyer. This movement reduces the space for the emergence of new Brazilian talents and reverses a historical characteristic of our football, which is to reveal and produce stars. It is necessary to find a balance, with more criteria in hiring." • FÁBIO MOTA (president of Vitória): "I voted for it because Vitória is a training club. The measure encourages the training of athletes, and these athletes gain more opportunities." • GRÊMIO'S POSITION: The club sees the measure as an "attempt to strengthen the training process in the country" and to "expand the use of base athletes." • CRISTIANO DRESCH (president of Cuiabá): "Today, the amount of foreign players in Brazil is excessive. I think this is a measure that can benefit training, but it is important that it comes along with initiatives that encourage this work." • JOÃO PAULO SILVA (president of Ceará): "We need to give these boys opportunities so they can perform on the field and financially. Brazilian football continues to be a good trainer of talents. The more Brazilians play in our leagues, the greater and faster the evolution of football in the country will be." DORIVAL JÚNIOR believes that the massive presence of foreign players in Brazil penalizes an 'entire generation.' "In the future, we will pay a very high price. We are not realizing this. Italy paid a very high price in two World Cups," said the coach earlier this year when he was still coaching Corinthians. • PALMEIRAS AND FLAMENGO DEFEND ANOTHER CHANGE Palmeiras, which has 8 foreigners, believes the new rule will stimulate investments in training and provide more opportunities for young players. The club is also talking to the CBF about mechanisms to protect base athletes from being approached by European teams. Among its proposals is to allow 16-year-old players to sign 5-year contracts with the training club; today, the limit is 3 years. Palmeiras and Flamengo also advocate for the end of the match limit in the Brasileirão for transfers between clubs in the country. Bap, president of Fla, suggested voting on this change, but it was not accepted. Therefore, he voted against reducing the foreign limit. Bahia and Londrina were the other opposing votes. The CBF promised to evaluate Bap's suggestion and should bring it to a vote in the future. (translated)
DID NOT STOP THERE! 🚨🇧🇷 Guilherme Bellintani, owner of SAF of Londrina, proposed that Brazilian clubs can have B CLUBS in the national football chain. The idea would be similar to the B teams of Real Madrid, Barcelona, etc. The idea is to give more space to young players and create an intermediate stage between the youth and the professional level. This topic is expected to be discussed at the next meeting of the clubs, along with the possibility of removing the transfer restriction for players with 12 games in the Campeonato Brasileiro.

🚨 BEHIND THE SCENES: Ancelotti approved CBF's plan to reduce the limit of foreigners in the Brasileirão. The measure aims to give more space to young Brazilians and prevent the early departure of great talents, such as Endrick and Estêvão. The CBF's management and the national team coaching staff participated in discussions about the problems in player development. Ancelotti took part in the conversations and ADMITTED THE DIFFICULTY in finding athletes ready to renew the national team after the 2026 World Cup. The elimination to Norway accelerated CBF's plan, which aims for a strong renewal by the 2030 World Cup. The CBF sees problems mainly in the training of MIDFIELDERS and understands that jewels leave the country before an important stage of development in Brazilian football. There is also an understanding that clubs prioritize FORWARDS, especially wingers, as they generate higher sales. With fewer foreigners in other positions, the expectation is that these teams will increase investment in the training of young Brazilians. (translated)

Palmeiras 'meets' Abel Ferreira with a reduction of foreigners, but the coach demands a change in the transfer rule. The club voted in favor of reducing the limit of foreigners, a topic already criticized by Abel. Today, the club has 8 foreigners in the squad, while the limit is 9 per game. For Abel, however, the measure needs to be accompanied by a change in the rule that restricts player transfers between clubs after 12 matches in the Brasileirão. The coach relates the two issues: he would like to hire more Brazilians, especially young ones, but he claims that the match limit leads clubs to seek reinforcements from abroad. The limit of foreigners will decrease to 8 in 2027, 7 in 2028, 6 in 2029, and 5 in 2030. (translated)
