The Board of Directors of the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo issued an official note repudiating insinuations regarding a possible operations agreement with Portuguese club Leixões. The allegations were considered irresponsible and untrue by the board, especially in an electoral context, where candidates and their supporters are accused of making unfounded accusations.

Flamengo highlights that the current administration, aware of the strength and size of the club brand, is always looking for strategies that can further enhance Rubro-Negro's growth. In this sense, the club argues that the electoral process must be guided by constructive debates, with no room for accusations without evidence or knowledge of the facts. The negotiations in question, as detailed, are being conducted in order to guarantee benefits to Flamengo, without putting the financial health of the institution at risk.


FLAMENGO TAKES A POSITION 

The operation being planned with Leixões is presented as more advantageous compared to a previous proposal involving another Portuguese club, Tondela. At the time, the proposal for the acquisition of Tondela was brokered by a company run by Claudio Pracownik, who would receive significant remuneration for advising and managing the business. The purchase of Tondela would require a considerable financial outlay on the part of Flamengo, with risks associated with the management of the club by third parties.

In contrast, the current negotiation with Leixões does not involve an immediate purchase of corporate participation, which exempts Flamengo to assume losses or liabilities of the Portuguese club immediately. The contract being discussed provides that Flamengo will take over the management of Leixões for a period of three years, without any initial obligation to purchase shares. After this management period, Flamengo will have the option to purchase the club, a decision that may be taken to the Deliberative Council (CODE) for approval, depending on the results and analyzes carried out throughout the management period.

This partnership model is highlighted as less risky and more advantageous for Flamengo, avoiding advance financial commitments and allowing a careful analysis of the benefits of the operation before any purchasing decision. The board emphasizes that, as soon as the final details of the contract are adjusted, the agreement will be submitted to CODE, which will be responsible for deliberating on the opportunity.
