According to O Globo, Flamengo was looking forward to the inauguration of the new president of Caixa Econômica, Carlos Antônio Vieira Fernandes, as a green light to accelerate negotiations around the land destined for the future stadium. The anxiety in the air was echoed in the conversations resumed in August, when discussions on the subject were restarted. With the change of leadership at Caixa, the red-black management envisioned a new dynamic in the negotiations. It was believed that, with a new president at the head of the financial institution, negotiations for land for the construction of the long-awaited stadium would gain momentum. The wait, after all, seemed to be about to bear fruit.
The conversations, previously on hold, now had the potential to move forward with greater fluidity. Flamengo, aware of the strategic importance of this process, sought to act with assertiveness and determination. After all, the stadium represented not only a venue for games, but also a significant milestone in the club's history. The return of discussions in August was a crucial milestone in this journey. At that moment, interested parties sat down at the table again, ready to find solutions that met the interests of both parties. The Rio club, aiming for its own home, and Caixa Econômica, aiming for a solid and beneficial partnership.
The change in Caixa's leadership brought a renewed perspective to the negotiations. Carlos Antônio Vieira Fernandes assumed the presidency with the promise of ensuring speed and efficiency in all processes under his responsibility. Flamengo, keeping an eye on this crucial moment, saw the inauguration of the new president as a unique opportunity to boost the new stadium project. As time progressed, anxiety grew among fans, eager for news about the long-awaited stadium. The expectation, previously contained, now overflowed in every bar conversation, in every circle of red and black friends. The future of the stadium was not just an administrative issue for the club; it was a dream shared by the entire Flemish nation.
The board, aware of the responsibility it carried, remained attentive to developments in the negotiations. Every detail was discussed in detail, aiming to ensure that Flamengo's interests were safeguarded. After all, the construction of the stadium did not just represent the construction of a physical structure, but rather the implementation of a project that symbolized the club's grandeur and ambition.
After Carlos Antônio Vieira Fernandes took office, the expectation was that the negotiations would gain a new dynamic, boosting the decision-making process. Flamengo, in its search for a home of its own, longed for concrete advances that could transform the dream of the stadium into reality. Amidst all the expectations and negotiations, August became a key month in Flamengo's journey towards its stadium. The return to conversations and the change in leadership at Caixa Econômica outlined a promising horizon. The fans, in turn, cheered in the hope of soon being able to celebrate not only the victories on the field, but also the conquest of a space that would be the stage for countless glories and emotions.
Tailor-made As time progressed, Flamengo remained firm in its purpose, anxiously awaiting the unfolding of the negotiations that would shape the club's future. And, while the wait continued, the certainty that the dream of the stadium was closer to becoming a reality made every second of expectation valuable, transforming the long-awaited inauguration of the new president of Caixa Econômica into a decisive chapter in red-black history.

Gerson leaves CT Ninho do Urubu without saying goodbye to his Flamengo teammates
Without attending the squad's return and without saying goodbye to his teammates and coaching staff, the player ends his second stint at Gávea in a cold manner.

The deal was concluded directly. Zenit, which had shown interest in strengthening its midfield, officially signed Gerson with full payment of the termination clause . The amount, 25 million euros (approximately R$146 million at the current exchange rate), was paid in cash, with no installments or pending payments.
This operation facilitated the immediate release of the athlete, who did not return to the squad on Friday. Rubro-Negro, in turn, issued a statement confirming the transfer and thanking him for his services.
FLAMENGO WILL HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT LOSS
The midfielder has already scheduled a trip to Russia, where he will be officially presented as a Zenit reinforcement in the coming days . The Russian club sees Gerson as a key player to reinforce the midfield with a view to competing in European and domestic competitions. This will be Gerson's second experience in Europe since leaving Flamengo for the first time, in 2021, when he transferred to Olympique de Marseille.
EXIT THROUGH THE BACK DOORS
Unlike the first farewell, which included tributes on FlaTV and a positive atmosphere, the current departure was marked by coldness. According to an investigation by journalist Venê Casagrande, from “SBT Rio”, the player chose not to say goodbye to his teammates or the coaching staff . Internally, the episode was interpreted as a gesture of discontent with the club's current situation and with his own physical and technical condition, since Gerson had not been performing well and was even the target of criticism from the fans.
Since his return to Flamengo in 2023, Gerson has not been able to return to the high level of performances he had in 2019 and 2020. Between injuries and fluctuations, he lost his place in important moments of the season. The drop in performance, combined with strong competition in the midfield, fueled the player's desire to seek new horizons. Internal sources indicate that the player had been showing signs of fatigue and dissatisfaction with the environment. The early elimination from the Club World Cup was another factor that weighed on his decision to leave the club.

Change of namesakes at Flamengo: Jhonston arrives and Michael may be leaving
The Rio de Janeiro club is unlikely to make any effort to keep the player, who had already expressed his desire to leave since the beginning of the year but was blocked by the World Cup

Negotiations involving Michael and Al-Duhail have gained momentum in recent days . According to journalist Mauro Sant'Ana, the Qatari club has formally proposed to the player's staff, who are positive about the possibility of returning to Middle Eastern football. Flamengo, in turn, was informed of the move and signaled that it will not block his exit.
The 29-year-old striker had been showing dissatisfaction with the lack of minutes under Filipe Luís, especially after the Club World Cup, where he had little participation. Michael's departure has been in the works since the beginning of the season. The player had already asked to leave the club at the beginning of 2025, but was eventually convinced to stay until the end of the first half of the year.
AN IMMINENT EXIT FOR THE STRIKER
The internal promise was that, in the middle of the year, the club would analyze possible proposals more openly. With the mid-year window underway and Al-Duhail's interest confirmed, the tendency is for the negotiation to move forward quickly. The red-black board understands that the time is right to release the player.
A CAST THAT IS DISMEMBERING
With a large offensive sector and the active search for two fast wingers on the market, the club considers the departure of Michael natural, who returned to Flamengo in August 2024 without any costs, after terminating his contract with Al-Hilal. In addition, the eventual transfer will allow to reduce the payroll and make space in the squad for reinforcements that better fit the profile desired by the coaching staff.
Even with Michael's possible departure, Flamengo remains active in the market in search of two wing attackers. The idea is to bring in names with dribbling ability and explosiveness in tight spaces, characteristics that the coaching staff considers essential for the current game model. Recently, the club made inquiries for Michael Johnston, a 25-year-old Irish striker , in addition to monitoring South American players who could arrive on loan with an option to buy.
