New information has emerged about the legal impasse involving Caixa Econômica Federal and the Gasologista land, located in the Port Zone of Rio de Janeiro, where Flamengo's future stadium is planned. The state bank demands compensation of R$1.08 billion to free up the area for the club.
DEMANDS FROM CAIXA ECONÔMICA FEDERAL

According to the website Exame, Caixa is charging R$240 million for land ownership and R$840 million for air rights for the work, which would allow for an expansion of the construction potential of the stadium project. Only with the payment of this amount would the bank be willing to provide the site for construction.

In 2024, the City of Rio de Janeiro, led by Mayor Eduardo Paes, expropriated the Gasometer land. Mais Querido then acquired the area at an auction for R$146 million. However, Caixa Econômica challenged the transaction in court, triggering a long legal battle that has not yet been resolved.


ONGOING NEGOTIATIONS

To try to resolve the conflict, Flamengo, City Hall and Caixa are looking for an agreement that could put an end to the legal disputes. A deadline of mid-November this year was set for the parties to reach a consensus and make progress on the stadium project possible.

The process for construction Flamengo's stadiumin Gasometer gained another chapter. This Thursday, together with Caixa Econômica Federal, the Attorney General's Office and Rio City Hall, Rubro-Negro requested that all processes regarding the expropriation of the Gasometer land be suspended for 90 days.

< The parties filed a joint action in the Federal Regional Court this Thursday (12). Decision that takes place shortly after the start of the mediation process with the Federal Public Administration Mediation and Conciliation Chamber (CCAF). The information comes from journalist Ancelmo Gois, from ‘O Globo’.

The deadline for the mediating body to suggest a solution to the impasse involving the value of the land is 45 days. As the process was initiated on August 30th, the forecast is that the AGU will present options from the second half of October, when there will finally be a definition on the construction of the Flamengo stadium in the Gasometer.


Today , despite having already paid for the land purchased at auction, Flamengo cannot acquire the term of possession of the land. This is because issuance is only permitted after all stages of legal challenges have been completed. The movements are part of the agreement signed in a meeting between AGU, Caixa and Rio City Hall with President Lula, in Brasília, at the end of August. The expectation is that a deal will finally happen.


Decision on the stadium will be close to Flamengo's election

Less than two months to go until Flamengo's presidential election Flamengo when a solution for the stadium is defined. The stadium is important in red-black politics this year and used by all candidates, who have their own construction projects.


The vote to define the new president of Flamengo will be on December 9th , a Monday. But, in addition, it is important to highlight the even greater proximity to the municipal elections. An agreement and the term of possession of the land may be what is needed for Eduardo Paes to confirm re-election as Rio City Hall in the first round.
