After almost a decade of legal battles and outstanding debts according to the MRN, Flamengo and Viton 44, a beverage company, finally reached an agreement. The dispute began due to more than R$4 million in late sponsorship, which left the club in a delicate financial situation. Now, Viton 44 has agreed to transfer land located in the Portobello luxury condominium, located in Mangaratiba, Rio de Janeiro, as a way of ending the process.
This outcome marks a significant turning point for both parties involved. On the one hand, Flamengo can finally resolve a financial issue that has been going on for years, allowing the club to move forward without the weight of that outstanding debt. On the other hand, Viton 44 is able to close a contentious chapter in its corporate history by opting for a solution that involves the transfer of ownership rather than continuing in a prolonged legal impasse.
AGREEMENT AND PAYMENT METHOD CLOSED
The property in question will be auctioned extrajudicially next Tuesday, the 14th, with a minimum bid set at more than R$13 million. This value represents not only the cost of the land, but also the years of litigation and delays that led to this resolution. The auction is a crucial stage in this process, as it will determine the final outcome of this long dispute between Flamengo and Viton 44.
The luxury condominium Portobello, where the land in question is located, is known for its beauty and exclusivity. Located in Mangaratiba, a paradisiacal region of Rio de Janeiro, the condominium offers a series of amenities and attractions for its residents. Thus, the land at auction is not only a physical property, but also represents an investment opportunity in a highly valued and coveted location.

Flamengo has officially filed an appeal with the Superior Court of Justice (STJD) against Bruno Henrique's 12-game suspension . The club has also requested a stay of execution, allowing the striker to be released pending a new trial in the second instance before the full court.
The expectation is to count on the number 27 next Sunday (14), against Juventude, at 4 pm (Brasília time), at Alfredo Jaconi, for the 23rd round of the Brasileirão . The information was published by the newspaper O Globo. The decision on the request should come out this Wednesday (10), and coach Filipe Luís will be informed whether or not he can include the player for the trip to Caxias do Sul.
Bruno Henrique was found guilty by the 1st disciplinary committee of the Superior Court of Justice (STJD), accused of forcing a yellow card in 2023 to benefit gamblers. The conviction sparked debate, and Flamengo believes it has solid arguments to reverse the decision.
Flamengo lawyer on Bruno Henrique case: "Penalties per match must be served in the same championship in which they occurred"
During the trial, rapporteur Dr. Alcino Guedes argued that the suspension should also apply to international tournaments, such as the Copa Libertadores. In this case, Bruno would miss matches against Estudiantes and potential semifinals on October 22nd and 29th . However, lawyer Michel Assef Filho, who represents the striker, ruled out this possibility:
"There was a request to extend this punishment, which is completely unfounded. The Brazilian Code of Sports Justice is very clear: penalties per match must be served in the same championship in which they occurred . In this case, the Brasileirão ," the lawyer stated. Despite this, according to the GE, FIFA could extend the effects to international competitions if the STJD took action against the CBF.
Until the decision is made, the striker remains suspended for the following matches:
