The Brazilian sports scene has witnessed a new chapter in the race for master sponsorships. According to the UOL portal, Flamengo readjusted its contract in response to the record value achieved by Corinthians. The recent announcement revealed that the value of Corinthians' master sponsorship will reach an incredible R$120 million per year, exceeding the R$85 million received annually by Flamengo. This movement, without a doubt, provoked a wave of action on the part of the Rio club.
The board of directors of Flamengo, surprised by the loss of leadership in terms of master sponsorship value, He wasted no time in pressuring his sponsor for an adjustment. And, as expected, it wasn't just the red and black leaders who noticed the change. Companies interested in associating their brands with the Brazilian football giant began to approach the club, offering higher prices to gain prominent space on its shirt.

The threat of losing such a valuable partnership forced the sponsor of Flamengo to reconsider its position and accept the requested increase. However, the counterpart came in the form of an increase in the contract period. The new agreement, sealed in the midst of this fierce competition, stipulates a total value of approximately R$470 million over 4 years.
The immediate impact of this adjustment can already be seen on the club's finances. This year, Flamengo will see its coffers reinforced with R$105 million from master sponsorship. But the strategy goes beyond a one-off increase. The club plans progressive growth in this value, aiming to establish the largest sponsorship in the history of Rubro-Negro.
With Arrascaeta suspended and key absences, Filipe Luís is betting on a fast attack and confirms Jorginho's return to the starting lineup

Flamengo is ready to face Internacional this Wednesday (13), at Maracanã , for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. Coach Filipe Luís confirmed the entry of Luiz Araújo in place of Arrascaeta, who is suspended, and promoted the return of Jorginho to the starting lineup.
Without the Uruguayan number 10, the red-black team will take to the field with: Rossi; Royal, Léo Ortiz, Léo Pereira and Alex Sandro; Jorginho, Allan; Luiz Araújo, Plata, Samuel Lino and Pedro.
The main new addition is Jorginho, who returns after serving a suspension in the Brasileirão victory over Mirassol. Arrascaeta, on the other hand, is out due to an accumulation of yellow cards in the continental competition.
In addition to Arrascaeta, Flamengo will be without Erick Pulgar (right foot surgery), De La Cruz (left knee injury), and Danilo (right thigh injury). The final roster could still be surprising, as Filipe Luís has opted for strategic cuts due to the excess players on the roster.
The match between Flamengo and Internacional is scheduled for 9:30 pm (Brasília time), with live broadcast on Rede Globo, on open TV, and on Disney+, via streaming. The return duel takes place next Wednesday (20), at Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre.

Flamengo's own stadium project gained direct participation from Companhia Carioca de Parcerias e Investimentos (CCPAR) in the preliminary agreement signed between the club, the Rio de Janeiro City Hall, and Caixa Econômica Federal. Specializing in concessions and partnerships, the municipal public company will be responsible for investing R$29.2 million, approximately 15% of the R$199.6 million earmarked for the Gasômetro land acquisition.
The amount will be allocated as financial compensation to Caixa, the former owner of the space through the Porto Maravilha Real Estate Investment Fund , which was expropriated by the City for the auction that resulted in Flamengo 's purchase. This information is from GE.
Flamengo will receive the majority of the amount: R$170 million . This amount includes the R$138 million already paid in the 2023 auction, plus R$7.9 million for the judicial investigation, and an additional R$23.6 million, which will be paid in five installments.
Despite progress in negotiations, the project still faces obstacles. Removing the gas pipelines and clearing the land remain the responsibility of the City Hall . Governor Cláudio Castro assured the website 'MundoBola Flamengo' that the municipality is committed to these steps.
At Flamengo, the topic is being treated cautiously. The Deliberative Council is preparing to discuss ways to secure the necessary resources without compromising the institution's financial health . Contrary to what had been reported, the topic of the new stadium did not come up at the last CoDe meeting.
