Flamengo recently took an important step towards buy, at auction, the land of the Gasometer, where he intends to build his I dreamed of my own stadium. However, the fans' euphoria contrasts with the concerns raised by experts about the current board's ability to carry out a project of this magnitude.

The architect Fabrício Chicca, owner of the channel 'Mundo na Bola', was blunt in his assessment of Flamengo's management. “An honest question. How can anyone still entrust a stadium project, which will put the club from the most financially healthy position to one of the most indebted in Brazil, to a group that is incapable of professionalizing the football department?”, wrote Chicca in his account. X. Criticism reflects discontent with the way football has been conducted at the club, marked by controversial decisions. adequate. “A management that keeps this department under the command of a person whose greatest quality is being a partner? A management that was unable in 5 years to hire a coach similar to the one they luckily hired in 2019? Who paid R$50 million in technician fines?”, continued the architect.


For Chicca, blind trust in the ability of the businesspeople who lead the club can be a fatal mistake. “I wouldn't trust a hot dog cart, let alone a stadium... The certainty that big businessmen alone would be enough to build a stadium without bankrupting the club is a big mistake. These 'successful businessmen' are not able to recognize their limitations in the football department, would they be able to recognize the limits in running a project like the stadium”, he concluded.


Despite the recent good financial results, the stadium project raises numerous questions regarding how Flamengo will find resources so as not to compromise the club's financial future, if the project is not conducted with due competence.

In addition to criticism of the board, Flamengo faces another challenge: the possibility of canceling the land auction. Caixa Econômica Federal, which manages the investment fund that owned the land, is taking action to annul the process, which could further complicate the club's plans. With so much uncertainty in the air, the dream of having its own stadium seems to be far from becoming a reality without the club facing serious challenges ahead.

Furthermore, he guaranteed that Flamengo will have its new stadium, with the best conditions and security.

The news published by Ancelmo informs that Flamengo would have to pay R$100 million to remove a large gas structure present on land acquired by the club, which is owned by CEG and CEG-Rio, which are companies that are part of the gas concessionaire Naturgy.

Flamengo continues to debate whether to look for a replacement for Pedro, a striker who is recovering from an injury. The decision is complex, involving several variables ranging from the financial cost to the availability of players on the market. One of the main points under discussion is the high cost of a possible replacement. The club is aware that signing a center forward may require a significant investment, something that needs to be carefully evaluated within the team's current budget.

In addition, Flamengofaces the challenge of downtime of players available on the market. Many of the center forwards who are free for transfer come from long periods without playing, with recent injuries or prolonged absence from the field. This situation represents a risk, as the integration of a player who is not in the rhythm of the game may take longer and be less effective initially.


FLAMENGO HAS "WORRIES" AT THE MOMENT

The club is also considering the limited number of viable options on the market. The scarcity of attackers who meet the criteria required by Flamengo – both in terms of quality and physical readiness – is a factor that further complicates the search for a suitable replacement. 

In this scenario, the management of Flamengo assesses whether signing a new player is the best solution or whether there are viable alternatives to deal with Pedro's absence, such as adjusting the tactical formation or promoting youth players. The final decision is still being studied, and the club needs to carefully consider all aspects before making a decision.
