Flamengo purchased the land for R$ 138,195,000.00 for the construction of the new stadium, but they still don't know if this will be the total amount to keep the space in the Gasometer region. The rules of the city council's notice place responsibility for possible losses in court on the club's account, in the dispute between Caixa Econômica Federal (CEF) as litigant.
Articles 11.7 and 11.8 of the final version of the notice, dated July 9, make clear the obligation of the successful bidder (Flamengo ) in the payment of "any difference, if any, between the value of the winning bid at the auction and that fixed in the expropriation process".
In the terms of purchase and sale of the property, the club undertakes to assume any judicial liens, taxes, tariffs and fines levied on the property, "renouncing, irrevocably, the right to subsequently charge such amounts from the Municipality".
For the lawyer specializing in administrative law Francisco Defanti, these conditions create some uncertainty about the final amount to be paid by Flamengo to take over the land in the central region of Rio de Janeiro, in addition to directing any possible loss to the club.
"There is no up or down parameter low. The value could be very high. It's a risk. It is the main risk that Flamengo runs. For any bidder who enters this model, the risk is this: you don't know what the value set by the judge will be up front. And Flamengo is committed to paying the difference that may be determined by the judge. This is both in the notice and in the promise of purchase and sale" - said Defanti in an interview with the portal "Lance".
Flamengo trusts in well-done expertise
Flamengo is aware of the litigious process ahead and calculated the risks before entering the auction. This is what the report heard from sources linked to the red and black board. the winning bid, but trusts in the expertise carried out by the city hall and in the studies that indicate an appreciation of the site no greater than R$ 240 million.
Lance spoke with members of the club's Deliberative Council who raised the issue! to the board. Behind the scenes, the directors showed confidence in dialogue with the parties involved, despite the inevitable legal fight. When contacted by the report, Caixa reported that it "does not comment on judicial matters".
It may be that. the value is actually higher. And this is done through expertise. The expert may identify this value as above or below the value set by the City Hall. I think it's very difficult for City Hall's assessment to be wrong. I imagine that the City Hall's assessment is reasonably correct - added Francisco Defanti.
Expropriation process
In recent days, Caixa returned to court to ask for the annulment of the auction won by Flamengo. The bank criticized the allegedly biased process to favor Flamengo and criticized the amount of R$138.2 million. The entity is the administrator of the investment fund that owns the property.
Before the notice, Flamengo offered R$250 million to reach an agreement with the current owners. The expropriation process could have been carried out amicably, but there was no agreement. For this reason, the City of Rio initiated the expropriation process because it considered the property "abandoned and without fulfilling its social function".
Now, an expert was appointed by the Court to determine the value of the property. Any possible divergence with the assessment made by the city hall will be resolved by the judge.

The classic between Vasco and Flamengo will not be at São Januário . In an official statement, this Thursday (3), the Specialized Battalion for Policing in Stadiums (BEPE) refused the request of Cruz-Maltino for the game to be at the stadium. The entity, after all, alleges "security risks on the perimeter and inside the sports square" .
The decision was made based on the unit's strategic analyses that point to security risks.
"The SEPM Press Office informs that the command of the Specialized Battalion for Policing in Stadiums (BEPE) opposed the request of the Clube de Regatas Vasco da Gama for the next classic between Vasco and Flamengo, scheduled for April 19, to be held at the São Januário Stadium. The decision was made based on the unit's strategic analyses that point to security risks on the perimeter and inside the sports arena in games of this nature" , says the statement.
BUT SO WHAT? WHERE WILL THE GAME BE?
Now, Vasco needs to decide where to host the classic match on April 19th. The CBF regulations prohibit the match from being transferred to another state, since the request for this must be made at least 20 days in advance. In addition, Nilton Santos will host a musical event on the same day and will not be able to host the match. A likely location would be Raulino de Oliveira, in Volta Redonda .
LAST MEETING BETWEEN THE TEAMS AT CRUZMALTINO STADIUM
It is worth remembering that the last match between the teams at São Januário, in 2017, ended in chaos. Flamengo won the match 1-0, and Vasco fans threw bombs and objects at the red-and-black players, who were unable to access the tunnel. There was also an attempt to invade the field and a confrontation with the Military Police.
Since then, the only derby at the stadium took place in 2020 without the presence of fans. The Cruzmaltino adopted the same stance in the Campeonato Carioca, when it took the first game of the semifinal to Engenhão, which Mais Querido won 1-0.

Former player Denílson named his favorites for the 2025 Libertadores without hesitation. Even with a history linked to São Paulo and Palmeiras, he left both clubs out of the list of the main candidates for the title. For him, two teams stand out in the competition: Flamengo and Racing. During an appearance on "Globo Esporte" , Denílson was asked by Fred Bruno about his favorites for both the Libertadores and the South American. The former athlete surprised everyone by choosing an Argentine team alongside Rubro-Negro.
Now, in the Libertadores, Flamengo and Racing. I was surprised with Racing.”, replied Denílson.
RACING AS A SURPRISE AMONG THE FAVORITES
When asked about the likely champions, Denílson was direct . For the South American, he pointed to Atlético-MG and Huracán as the strongest teams. In the continent's main competition, he mentioned Mengão and Racing as the main contenders for the title. "Racing surprised me," he commented . The presence of the Argentine club on the list shows that the former player sees an evolution in the team, capable of competing for the trophy alongside the giants of South American football.
Palmeiras, which has been struggling in 2025, continues to seek stability. For Denílson, the team needs a positive result against Sporting Cristal, away from home, to start getting back on the winning track . "In addition to the result, they have to show attitude and organization on the field. Technically, some players need to improve. In the Brasileirão, against Botafogo, Palmeiras was unable to impose itself", he analyzed.
CLUBS HAVE DIFFICULTY
Another traditional Brazilian football club that is still trying to get going is São Paulo. Even after beating Talleres in Argentina, the team led by Zubeldía is still under pressure. Denílson stressed that another setback in the Brasileirão could increase the coach's instability. "This weekend we have Galo, a very strong team. São Paulo needs to play well to ensure more peace of mind for the team and for Zubeldía," he commented.
With the Libertadores taking shape, Brazilian clubs are moving to consolidate their position in the competition. CRF, mentioned among the favorites, has a recent history of good performances in the tournament and is seeking another continental title. Racing, considered a surprise in Denílson's analysis , also wants to establish itself in the competition. With a competitive squad, the Argentine team could be a dangerous opponent for Brazilian teams throughout the competition.
