Currently, CRF occupies fourth place in the Brazilian Championship, which would earn the club a prize of R$40.6 million, based on the amounts distributed in 2023. However, this position is below the target established by the board for 2024, which predicted at least runner-up in the Brasileirão, which would result in R$45 million to the club's coffers. So far, this goal seems far from being achieved.

BUDGETARY EXPECTATIONS AND OBJECTIVES

In a published document On the club's official website, Mengão detailed its budgetary expectations for football in 2024. Among the objectives were qualifying for the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores and Copa do Brasil, in addition to the final of the Campeonato Carioca and runner-up in Brazil. In Carioca, the club achieved its goal, becoming champion, and is in the semi-finals of the Copa do Brasil, where it will face Corinthians.

However, the early elimination for Peñarol in the Libertadores was a big blow for red-black planning. Failure to qualify for the semi-finals of the South American tournament meant a significant financial loss of R$11.6 million, which had already been accounted for as part of the revenue forecast.



NEED FOR RECOVERY IN THE BRASILEIRÃO

To achieve the goals established in the Brasileirão, Mais Querido will need to begin a consistent recovery. CRF has one game less than its competitors, but saw leader Botafogo reach 57 points, closely followed by Palmeiras, with 56. Fortaleza is in third place, with 52 points.

If they win the Athletico-PR this Sunday (29), at Maracanã, Mengão will have 48 points, still far from the first placed, but remaining in contention. The red and black team knows that a sequence of good results is essential to avoid further frustrations in the season and, thus, guarantee the expected revenues.
