Rodolfo Landim, current president of Flamengo, made a strong statement regarding the future of the club, highlighting the importance of Rodrigo Dunshee, legal vice-president, in his succession plans. "I don't have There is no doubt that if we don't elect Dunshee, this stadium won't come out", stated Landim, in an emphatic tone, referring to the long-awaited project for Flamengo's own stadium. The phrase reflects the trust that Landim places in Dunshee as a central figure to continue his work and fulfill one of the greatest desires of the red and black fans.


Dunshee, who gained prominence throughout Landim's management, is considered the main bet to assume the presidency of Flamengo in the next elections. In addition to his work in the club's legal area, Dunshee played an important role in crucial moments of the current administration, consolidating its position as a strong name for succession. Landim's speech not only reinforces this perspective, but also highlights the stadium project, which has been on the club's and fans' agenda for years.


 STADIUM SHOULD OR NOT LEAVE 


A Building its own stadium is a long-standing desire of Flamengo and its immense fans. With Maracanã facing administrative challenges and being shared with other clubs, the idea of ​​having an exclusive stadium for Flamengo has always gained strength. However, bureaucratic and financial issues are obstacles that need to be overcome. It is in this context that Landim sees Dunshee as the ideal person to lead the project forward, if he is elected. The lack of support for this continuity, in the current president's view, could put the realization of the dream at risk.

The succession of Landim, who has already announced that he does not intend to seek a new mandate, promises to be one of the most fierce elections in Flamengo's recent history. The internal dispute at the club is always intense, with different political groups seeking to direct the future of the institution. However, with Landim's statement, it is clear that he will seek to join forces around Dunshee, who, in addition to legal experience, will need to show the ability to lead the club in other areas, especially football, which is always the center of attention.


 OLD DREAM OF LANDIM MANAGEMENT 

The stadium itself is seen as a watershed in Flamengo's history. For Landim, there is no doubt that the completion of this project will be a fundamental milestone for the club's financial and institutional future. The idea of ​​depending less on Maracanã, which is still managed by the state government, reinforces the need for o Flamengo will have greater autonomy, both in terms of revenue and in the organization of its games. And for this to happen, the continuity of your group in leading the club is seen as essential.

Signed with star status, Gabigol is still seeking regular starting positions at Cruzeiro. Unlike what he became accustomed to during his years as a star player at Flamengo, the striker is currently in a transitional phase. Even though he's not a regular in the starting eleven, he's been touted as an important player in Leonardo Jardim's project.


Pedro Junio, vice president of the Minas Gerais club, emphasized in an interview with the program Donos da Bola that the number 9 did not disappoint. According to the director, the striker has fulfilled everything agreed upon at the time of his signing, both on the field and in marketing. " He delivers everything we agreed on, both in the sporting and commercial and marketing aspects . Gabriel was a package deal we signed, and he delivers," he noted.


BOARD DEFENDS GABIGOL'S PARTICIPATION


Since arriving at Toca da Raposa, Gabigol has started 11 matches, initially under Fernando Diniz and later under Leonardo Jardim. Following the 1-1 draw with São Paulo on April 13th, in the third round of the Brasileirão , the striker has lost his place in the starting lineup. Even so, management emphasizes that there is no dissatisfaction or bad blood behind the scenes.

" Cruzeiro's advantage is that everyone understands that Cruzeiro is the top priority. Regardless of who's playing or not," explained Pedro Junio, highlighting the positive internal atmosphere at the club and the players' maturity in accepting coaching decisions.


GABIGOL REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO CRUZEIRO

Despite recurring speculation that he's unhappy about not being a regular starter, Gabigol has publicly expressed his composure about this new phase. After the 2-0 victory over Vila Nova on May 1st in the Copa do Brasil , the striker addressed the issue directly.

" I'm very calm about it. I know the pressure there is , and there are a lot of people who say things without realizing it. I try to work hard, show my football skills on the field," he said. On that occasion, the striker also highlighted the welcome he received at the club and reinforced his desire to continue contributing.
