Everyone was taken by surprise last Monday (25) after the Court's decision to suspend Gabigol for two years from football for attempted fraud in the anti-doping test. In recent days, the name of Marcio Tannure, health and high performance manager at Flamengo, also appeared in the news. After all, the doctor would have told the player not to perform the tests, as he was already training and could cause changes in the results. This Thursday (28), the doctor preferred not to comment on the topic.


"The information I have is the same as yours. I am not authorized to talk about this subject without the club's advice. But we have hierarchy and an organizational chart. For me to talk about this subject, only through the club's official press office. I hope you understand and respect me. Here in Brazil, we have to praise because football is the most tested sport. Obviously no player likes to be tested, some are afraid of the needle when taking a blood test", said Marcio Tannure.


"We have to understand each person's peculiarities. But it's obvious that we are in favor of anti-doping. a policy of athlete protection and sporting equality. It is important. Flamengo has been competing in all competitions, so it is the team that has done the most anti-doping. Words are lost, actions remain. We have had experience for a long time and have never had complications. I can't say it's comfortable, not everything about your job is comfortable, of course", added Tannure, during the Super Fut Summit, at the Museum of Tomorrow, in Rio de Janeiro.


GABIGOL SUSPENSION

Gávea's number 10 was suspended for two years. However, as the infraction took place in April 2023, the Sports Anti-Doping Court (TJD-AD) understands that Gabigol will be free in April 2025. However, the Mais Querido will try to appeal the decision and is confident of the effect suspensive and also in the acquittal.


SKILL IN THE OFFICIAL COMPETITIONS OF THE SEASON

In this way, while the Flamengo does not appeal the decision and Gabigol's case is not judged again, the attacker will be banned from going to Ninho do Urubu or Gávea to carry out training, thus, he will be absent for Mais Querido in the Carioca finals, in the group stage of the Libertadores, Copa do Brasil and Brasileirão.

Flamengo is about to reach the milestone of 100,000 active members in its "Nação" program , which currently has over 95,000 members . This number represents an increase of about 30% since January, when the club had approximately 70,000 subscribers, according to journalist Venê Casagrande.


REFORMULATION CHANGED THE GAME


The increase in membership was driven by the launch of the new program in April, which highlighted the “ Nação Sem Fronteiras ” plan, aimed at fans from outside Rio de Janeiro or who do not regularly attend Maracanã.


With a symbolic value of R$19.81 per month, in honor of the 1981 world title , the plan offers advantages such as priority in purchasing tickets for games outside Rio, the right to purchase tickets for one game per year at Maracanã (except semifinals and finals) and discounts with commercial partners.

NEW STRUCTURE FOR THOSE WHO ATTEND MARACANÃ


Traditional plans have been revamped in the "Maraca Nation" category, divided into three tiers with different prices and benefits . The focus is to offer priority and deeper discounts on ticket purchases for stadium games.

To democratize access, Flamengo has also reserved 10% of its ticket supply for members in categories 2 and 3 , ensuring they don't miss out on purchasing tickets. Within these plans, attendance will be one of the priority criteria.

Check out the new values and benefits:

  • Nation Without Borders: R$19.81/month – aimed at fans from outside Rio who are not regular fans.
  • Nação Maraca 3 (formerly Prata): R$61.00/month – Priority 3 and 60% discount.
  • Nação Maraca 2 (formerly Platinum and Gold): R$150.00/month – Priority 2 and 65% discount.
  • Nação Maraca 1 (formerly Diamante): R$325.40/month – Priority 1 and 75% discount, limited to 10,000 cardholders.
