The newspaper "O Globo" published an editorial this Sunday criticizing Rio de Janeiro City Hall for assisting Flamengo in obtaining land and planning for the construction of its own stadium in Gasmetro.
According to the editorial, the city of Rio de Janeiro does not need a new stadium located just 3 km from Maracanã, whose renovation cost the public coffers more than R$1 billion. The construction of the Flamengo stadium, argues the newspaper, would transform Maracanã into a "white elephant".
"Despite club and electoral interests, the city does not need a new stadium, especially just 3 kilometers from Maracanã. It is well served with what it has (…) It would be terrible for the city and the country if Maracanã became another white elephant, as happens with stadiums built or renovated for the 2014 World Cup, which are currently the largest. part of the time to the flies", writes the editorial.
The editorial suggests that the motivations of Mayor Eduardo Paes to support Flamengo's project are voters, considering that the red and black fans represent more than 50% of the city's electorate. Recent polls indicate that Paes is well positioned to be re-elected in the first round.
The text also suggests that, instead of building a new stadium, Flamengo should renegotiate the terms of the Maracanã concession to make it more profitable. However, the editorial recognizes that this measure is impractical, given that the rules of the notice took almost five years to be drawn up and approved by the State Court of Auditors.
MISTRUST ABOUT FLAMENGO'S INTENTIONS
The editorial reveals skepticism regarding Flamengo's claim that it intends to fulfill the 20-year Maracanã concession even while building a new stadium. "Flamengo has said that it will not abandon it even with the new home. But it is unlikely that it will build a structure costing R$2 billion to play only occasionally. (…) One of the best and most popular stadiums in the world cannot only be the venue for games or special shows. With the drop in attendance, the maintenance bill will be left up to the state, therefore", states the editorial.
