The former Vice President of Finance of Flamengo, Rodrigo Tostes, decided to open up about his recent departure from the club's board of directors to journalist Venê Casagrande. In a frank interview, he detailed the reasons for his decision, declared his support for candidate Ricardo Lomba (Bap) in the next election and spoke about his relationship with the current president, Rodolfo Landim.


Rodrigo Tostes began by explaining that his decision was motivated by an alignment of vision and work with Bap, and for the concern to avoid a conflict of interest in the club. "My alignment of vision and work with Bap is very great. As always, I choose what I believe is best for Flamengo. I took the initiative to talk to President Landim because it would be bad for the club to support different candidates. By mutual agreement we decided it was best for me to leave," said Tostes.


ALLIANCES IN THE ELECTIONS 


Tostes sees this year's election as crucial to the future of Flamengo< /a>, comparing it with the 2013 election, when the club underwent a significant administrative transformation. "This year's election is as important as the 2013 election. The complexity of the football business and the size of Flamengo demand very high level corporate experience and a very qualified support group like we had in 2013. Partners need to understand that the electoral process it must be faced with a rigorous selection process to decide the president of Flamengo based on skills and abilities", he emphasized.

About a possible return to the position of VP of Finance, Tostes was reserved, preferring to focus on Bap's government plan. "I'm Flamengo and I have a huge honor to have been part of Flamengo's transformation process. I would never discuss a position. My support is based on the government plan that he discussed with me and will present soon."

“Filipe Luís took me off the team after the 3-0 defeat to Fortaleza (in last year’s Under-20 Brazilian Championship). I said: ‘ he wants to screw me over ’. Then he put me at 9 and asked me to attack the space. I didn’t understand anything . I scored two goals and he said he warned me . He helped me a lot to understand the processes”, said Wallace Yan, in an interview with Julio Miguel Neto.
