The recent change in the Brazilian football calendar, promoted by the CBF, has generated strong dissatisfaction at Flamengo . The club's president, Luiz Eduardo Baptista (BAP), stated that the Rubro-Negro was consulted, presented its opposition , and was ultimately ignored by the organization.
Flamengo president Bap on CBF change: "They were supposed to evaluate it and never came back"
The changes defined the end of the Brasileirão to be brought forward to December 7th and the Copa do Brasil to be postponed to the same month, in order to avoid conflict with the Intercontinental Cup. For Flamengo , however, the decision directly affected their season planning.
Since the beginning of the year, the club prioritized the Brasileirão and the Libertadores, even using mixed teams in the Copa do Brasil , which resulted in early elimination. However, the relegation was offset by the guaranteed free weeks for recovery and training, a benefit lost with the CBF's change. According to internal calculations, at least four rest dates were removed.
Bap lamented the incident and highlighted the organization's lack of response: " We clearly stated that our priorities were the Brasileirão and the Libertadores . They promised to evaluate the situation and never responded. They decided, and that was it," the director told journalist Rodrigo Mattos.
According to the journalist, the CBF consulted with Flamengo and Palmeiras before making a decision. The São Paulo club, more aligned with the organization, accepted the proposal. The Rubro-Negro, on the other hand, formalized its rejection in writing . Last Monday (25), after the 8-0 rout over Vitória, the Mais Querido released an official statement reaffirming its opposition and criticizing the CBF's unilateral decision.
Flamengo's institutional relations manager, Dekko Roisman, emphasized that elimination from the Copa do Brasil shouldn't negate the right to rest. Furthermore, the club was asked about the possibility of using an alternate team in the event of a clash between the Brasileirão and the Intercontinental Cup, but the response was categorical: such a change would only benefit the Libertadores winner and compromise the championship's equality.
Mengão applied a historic 8-0 result over Leão and the coach rewarded the players with Tuesday off after the game.
