Driely Severino Ferreira

She is described as a tough, intelligent holding midfielder known for organizing play and shooting from distance.

She won Campeonato Carioca titles with two different Rio de Janeiro clubs: Botafogo and Flamengo.

Driely was part of the Iranduba squad that became one of the biggest surprise stories in Brazilian women’s football during the club’s rise in Amazonas.

Joining Flamengo was something Driely described as an “honor” because of the club’s worldwide reputation, adding that she arrived feeling “happy, motivated and excited” to get on the pitch quickly with the team.
