This week, a sketch of the project was leaked on how Flamengo will explore the Gasologista area to build its own stadium. The company that created the art is called Arena Events + Venues. The brand stands out for having specialists with experience in sporting events and venues and even made an agreement with Conmebol to consult on the technical infrastructure of the Copa América stadiums.
“The support offered by the Arena will be essential to help with the challenge of adapting our operational model to the facilities provided by the stadiums and identifying and filling the main gaps that may exist, achieving an event with Conmebol's standard of excellence”, said Thiago Jannuzzi, chief executive of Conmebol's World Cup operations recently. América.
On his YouTube channel, architect Fabricio Chicca, from the Mundo na Bola channel, explained that in the case of Flamengo, Arena Events is still in the process of viability of the land.
“Flamengo hired a company that planned the Porto Maravilha area. It is the company Arena Events + Venues. Not that all projects are developed this way, but it is the most common way. Come on, there are three phases: feasibility, development and implementation. It seems to me that Flamengo is in the viability phase”, said Chicca.
Flamengo's financial project by Gasologista
The expert made it clear that Flamengo needs more advanced planning to really know the how much you will spend on the works. So far, the sketch made by Arena Events + Venues doesn't say much.
“Main plan, conceptual design, Roi projection (return on investment) and 3D modeling That's what we've seen. Financial modeling depends on this conceptual study. The more developed this study is, the more accurate the financial modeling study will be. Flamengo needs this to get its investors”, he warned.
On the other hand, in an interview with Fla TV, Rodolfo Landim stated that the club already has the economic conditions to move forward with the project: “I can say that the Flamengo is prepared to go ahead with the purchase of the land. We have been preparing to do this for some time. Flamengo has been structuring itself financially for a long time and preparing to make this move.”
The next step
After the expropriation at public auction of the City Hall of Rio de Janeiro, the Gasometer once again belongs to the state until the auction takes place. Flamengo's estimate is that within 20 or 30 days the notice with the date for acquiring the land will be published.
Mengão purchased the space to build its own arena and the company will pay around 15% of the value to Caixa Econômica Federal.

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.

Abel Braga on Flamengo and Internacional: "neither is at its best"
"It's an extremely close game. Flamengo hasn't been able to maintain a winning streak of four, five, or six wins . They're also coming off an elimination. Inter, which wasn't doing well, managed three or four 1-0 wins and made a significant leap forward. It has all the makings of a great game, but the truth is that neither team is at their best," Abel analyzed in an interview with GE.
The coach also highlighted the strengths of each team: "I hope it's a great game. Both Flamengo and Inter have the squads to put on a great show. Flamengo, with their usual high-pressing . Inter, with their surprising passing from one side to the other, especially with Wesley. It's hard to imagine Flamengo man-marking Alan Patrick," he concluded.
Under Filipe Luís, Flamengo was eliminated from the Copa do Brasil, but remains the undisputed leader of the Brasileirão, despite having played a game less . In its last ten games, the team has six wins, one draw, and three losses. Internacional, meanwhile, has won four, drawn two, and lost four in the same period. The pressure on coach Roger Machado is mounting at the Rio Grande do Sul club.
The clash between Flamengo and Internacional takes place this Wednesday (13), at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã , for the first leg of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. The decisive duel will be on August 20, at Beira-Rio. The match will be broadcast by Globo, ESPN and Disney+.
