The Governor of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Cláudio Castro was present at Maracanã last Thursday night (20) to watch the duel between Flamengo and Bahia, in the 10th round of the Brazilian Championship. In contact with journalists before the game, the politician guaranteed the support of the State Government to Rubro-Negro in relation to the construction of the stadium in Gasologista.
“The negotiations are being carried out with the City Hall and Caixa Econômica, It is not with the State Government, but from here you will always have full support. We are finalizing the Maracanã concession, which is the equipment that belongs to the State Government. The land negotiated there (Gasologista) belongs to the City Hall and Caixa Econômica. But from the Government of Rio, we always support you”, said Cláudio Castro.
When asked if the Government of Rio de Janeiro would be able to speed up the negotiations, Cláudio Castro revealed that there was no type of contact by Flamengo so far, but he said again that he is open to help.
“So far Flamengo hasn't looked for us, but when they do, any demand that any club in Rio de Janeiro If you have, you will certainly always have our support”, he declared.
Flamengo wants a stadium in the Gasometer
Flamengo defined that the area of the old Gasometer, in the region central Rio de Janeiro, is the ideal place to build your new stadium. The club, under the command of president Rodolfo Landim, is negotiating with Caixa Econômica Federal to purchase the land. The idea is to build a stadium with capacity for 80 thousand fans.
In Cláudio Castro's view, however, Flamengo's new stadium “threatens” Maracanã. Despite guaranteeing support for the club this Thursday, the governor of Rio de Janeiro spoke about this concern in a recent interview, and said that care needs to be taken so that Maraca does not become a white elephant.
“We have a point positive and another negative. I think Rio de Janeiro needs at least one more medium to large stadium. When you do a study, we understand that Maracanã is the stadium that has the most games in the world, so it is clear that Rio needs more sports equipment.
However, we have to be careful so that Maracanã do not become a new Mineirão or Pacaembu, which have become true white elephants. So we need to have a business model that serves us and does not harm Maracanã, which is so important for Rio de Janeiro”, said the governor, in May.

Flamengo received important news this Monday (4). Midfielder Arrascaeta underwent tests at the club's training center, Ninho do Urubu, which ruled out any muscle injury in the thigh. Thus, the number 10 is fit to reinforce the team in the return match against Atlético-MG , in the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil.
The Uruguayan was substituted at halftime of the match against Ceará last weekend after complaining of muscle discomfort. The decision to withdraw him was made by coach Filipe Luís as a preventative measure , avoiding the worsening of a possible clinical condition.
The player's departure at half-time caused apprehension among fans, who feared the absence of the team's main playmaker in a decisive match. However, tests carried out on Monday ruled out any medical concerns , and Arrascaeta is available to the coaching staff for the match against Atlético-MG, on Wednesday (6).
Internally, the news was received enthusiastically, particularly given the tactical importance the midfielder represents to the team's attacking system . If he's fully fit by game day, Arrascaeta is likely to start.
After a 1-0 defeat in the first leg at Maracanã, Flamengo needs to win by two goals to secure a direct spot in the quarterfinals. If Flamengo wins by one goal, the match will go to penalties . A draw or another defeat in Belo Horizonte will result in Flamengo 's elimination from the competition.
