Luiz Eduardo Baptista, known as Bap, met with partners supporting his candidacy for the presidency of Flamengo this Saturday (27), in Gávea. During the meeting, the current president of the Board of Directors addressed several topics that have been stirring behind the scenes at the club, including the recent statements by president Rodolfo Landim about the Sociedade Anônima do Futebol (SAF).
LANDIM'S STATEMENTS ABOUT SAF
In an interview with Charla Podcast, Rodolfo Landim stated that it was not him who introduced the debate about SAF in Flamengo, but rather the presidents of the Administrative and Deliberative Councils, Antônio Alcides. Landim explained: “It wasn't me who brought the SAF issue to Flamengo, it was the presidents of the Board of Directors and Deliberative Council. They scheduled two meetings and summoned all the advisors, preaching the advantages of SAF in Flamengo.”
BAP'S POSITION ON SAF
Bap, in turn, clarified that his role on the Board of Directors is to encourage debates on matters of interest to partners, such as the issue of SAF and compliance. However, he assured that he never supported the sale of any percentage of the club. “As president of the Board of Directors, I always understood that I should bring up topics of interest to club members so that they could have an idea of what each one was about. It was like that with compliance, which we don't have, and also with SAF. For them to understand that the medicine that works well for A does not work for B. Now, I never stated that I was in favor of FAS.”
REBATE LANDIM'S STATEMENTS
Bap also refuted Landim's statements, suggesting that the counselors should check what each one actually said on the topic. “You have to see what he said, the statements he made. It seems like he talked a lot about it. I don't think I have the power to force him to say something he doesn't want to say. Just see what each person said and preached in the Deliberative Council and group meetings. I have never been in favor of SAF and never will be, to be clear here. Everyone inside the club knows this. And my reputation here is that what I say I do.”

Flamengo has taken an important step towards finalizing the permanent transfer of midfielder Victor Hugo, 21 , to Famalicão, in Portugal. The Portuguese club has presented a purchase proposal that was considered satisfactory by the red-black board, which has already authorized the player's representatives to define the contract terms with the Europeans.
The expectation is that the contract with Famalicão will be valid for three seasons . The values involved in the negotiation were not revealed. The information was released by journalist Venê Casagrande.
NO SPACE IN THE CAST
Victor Hugo recently returned to the club after a loan spell at Goztepe in Turkey. The contract with the Turkish club included a buyout clause set at 8 million euros (approximately R$51 million) , but the European team chose not to exercise the option. Without a place in the squad led by Filipe Luís, the player is not part of the plans for the rest of the season.
Initially, Famalicão discussed the possibility of a new loan , but the talks evolved into a permanent transfer, considered the most advantageous solution by Flamengo 's football department.
PASSING TURKEY
During his time at Goztepe, Victor Hugo made 35 appearances, starting 12 of them, and scored three goals. He was involved in the team's eighth-place finish in the national league and also in the team's run to the semi-finals of the Turkish Cup, ending his spell with a stoppage-time goal against Kasimpasa on May 30.

On Tuesday (1), Zenit agreed to sign Gerson after depositing the amount of the midfielder's termination fee into Flamengo's bank account. Thus, with the amount, Mais Querido reached the budget target set for the season.
At the beginning of the season, Flamengo's idea was to raise around 35 million euros (R$225 million) from the sale of athletes in 2025. In this way, Rubro-Negro surpassed the mark, as it raised 47 million euros (R$302 million).
ALCARAZ AND FABRÍCIO BRUNO HELP TO COMPLEMENT THE GOAL
It is worth remembering that before the sale of Gerson , Flamengo had already agreed the sales of Fabrício Bruno, to Cruzeiro for 7 million euros (R$ 44 million) and Carlos Alcaraz, to Everton (ING), for 15 million euros (R$ 96 million).
BILLING MAY INCREASE
Despite having already surpassed the target set at the beginning of the year, Flamengo can still raise more money. This is because more players like Wesley are expected to leave during this transfer window. The full-back has already received inquiries from several European football clubs and could be sold for up to 35 million euros (R$225 million).
FOCUS ON SEASON SEQUENCE
Without Gerson, coach Filipe Luís will begin preparing the team for the rest of the season. Now, Rubro-Negro will focus its attention on the Brazilian Championship, Libertadores and Copa do Brasil. In the Brazilian Championship, Mais Querido is the leader, with 24 points, in addition to being qualified for the round of 16 of the knockout stages.
