The Deliberative Council of the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo announced this Tuesday the call for an extraordinary meeting for April 1st. The main objective will be to vote on the sponsorship agreement proposed by Banco de Brasília (BRB), which provides for the brand's exposure on the "shoulder" property of the uniforms of several of the club's teams for a period of 24 months, the equivalent of two years.
AGREEMENT ALMOST FINALIZED
This agreement, if approved, will cover not only the men's professional soccer team, but also the women's professional football, as well as men's and women's youth teams, in the Under-17 and Under-20 categories. Flamengo, known for its greatness and its fervent fan base, is constantly looking for partnerships that strengthen its financial structure and its competitiveness on the national and international sporting scene.
This agreement with BRB represents another opportunity for the club to expand its presence in the market and invest in its growth and development. Banco de Brasília, in turn, seeks through this partnership to expand its visibility and reach, taking advantage of the great exposure provided by Flamengo, one of the biggest and most popular football teams in Brazil. This association can open doors to new business opportunities and strengthen BRB's brand in the sporting scene.
It is worth highlighting that the sponsorship proposal comes at a crucial time for Flamengo, which seeks to maintain its hegemony on the national stage and win important titles. The club has invested heavily in its structure and in notable signings, and partnerships like this are essential to make such investments viable.
In addition, Flamengo has a rich history of athletes who marked an era, both in Brazil as abroad. An emblematic example is Zico, the ultimate idol of the Red and Black fans, who shone on the pitch and left an unparalleled legacy for the club. Names like Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Adriano Imperador and many others also left their mark on Flamengo's history, contributing to the construction of one of the greatest traditions in Brazilian football.

Bahia will have great difficulties when facing Flamengo this Sunday (5), in the 27th round of the Brazilian Championship. The team led by Rogério Ceni has 13 absences, a record number of the season , for the clash at Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time).
The Tricolor de Aço will have absences across all positions: goalkeeper, defense, full-backs, midfield, and attack. Nine players are injured and four are suspended, forcing the coach to resort to an alternative formation to face the league leaders.
Among the players missing are Luciano Juba, Rodrigo Nestor, Santiago Arias, and Sanabria , as well as players recovering from injuries like Kanu and Erick. The situation forces Ceni to assemble a new defense and even consider potential debutants.
With so many absences, Rogério Ceni should send an alternative team to the field against Flamengo : Ronaldo; Gilberto, Fredi, Rezende and Zé Guilherme; Acevedo, Jean Lucas and Everton Ribeiro; Kayky, Iago Borduchi (or Michel Araújo, Tiago or Cauly) and Willian José.

Corinthians idol, the goalkeeper was fundamental in Mengão's title in 2020 and shone again against Rubro-Negro in the Brasileirão
03 Out 2025 | 19:37 |
One of Corinthians ' greatest idols, goalkeeper Cássio has a special chapter in Flamengo's recent history, even though he never wore the red-and-black jersey. In 2020, his performance in Corinthians' draw against Internacional was crucial in the Rio de Janeiro club's Brasileirão title victory.
In the final round of that championship, Flamengo and Internacional were neck and neck for the trophy. Flamengo lost to São Paulo at Morumbi Stadium and, to retain the trophy , depended on a slip-up from their Rio Grande do Sul rival. At Beira-Rio Stadium, Corinthians held on for a draw thanks to Cássio's saves, preventing the Colorado victory and confirming the title for Mengão.
The episode has remained etched in the memories of Flamengo fans. In a recent interaction, a Flamengo influencer reminded the goalkeeper of the feat. " You know you're a national idol, right?" he asked. In a relaxed tone, Cássio replied: "Yes, we won that title, didn't we? Two thousand and…?" The fan added: "2020 !"
Last Thursday (2), in a duel valid for the Brazilian Championship, Cássio was once again highlighted against Flamengo, now defending Cruzeiro . The goalkeeper made important saves at Maracanã , guaranteeing a goalless draw and frustrating the red-black team's search for three more points.
With no time to lament the result, Flamengo is already concentrating its efforts on the next match of the competition. This Sunday (5), the team led by Filipe Luís faces Bahia, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador. The match will be valid for the 27th round and will be broadcast exclusively on the Premiere channel.
