The president of the Deliberative Council of Flamengo, Antônio Alcides, called a meeting for the next 29th to approve the club's participation in the auction for the acquisition of the former Gasometer land, expropriated by the City Hall for the construction of a stadium for the minimum 70 thousand people.


The auction takes place on July 31st. As the rules of the dispute provide that participants can increase their offer in verbal bids if there is more than one interested party, the Council's call calls for carte blanche so that the president can increase the minimum value of R$138 million throughout the auction.< /p>


“The President of the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo requested that the following proposition be resolved by the plenary of this Council: 'Authorize Flamengo to participate in the aforementioned auction and offer bids at a value equal to or greater than the valuation, in accordance with the prudent discretion of the President and his team, so that the Flamengo may acquire the aforementioned property at a value it deems fair, reasonable and compatible with its financial health”, says the request.


Flamengo’s expectation is that the conditions of the notice exclude other interested parties from the auction, as Flamengo is the only club interested in building a stadium for 70 thousand people. However, as there is no prior registration for the auction, it will only be known at the time if there are other interested parties and Flamengo will have to spend more than R$138 million.

The president Rodolfo Landim should have meetings this Friday in Brasília with directors of Caixa Econômica Federal to convince the company, administrator of the fund that manages the land, not to question the value of the auction in court. This means that the club can reach an agreement to offer a value above the minimum in the auction that is not questioned by Caixa in court.


Dissident candidate for president of Flamengo, Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap) expressed concerns that the Court will win the case for Caixa and force Flamengo to pay a much higher amount than expected in the auction. In direct negotiations, Flamengo was willing to pay up to R$250 million for the land, and yet Caixa did not accept the offer as it believed the land would be worth up to R$400 million.

ROGERIO CENI IS UNDER INTENSE CHARGE

According to Everton Ribeiro, Rogério Ceni's drive to win remains a hallmark, but the coach has learned to balance pressure and squad management. " Today, he can identify when a player isn't doing well and has the sensitivity to talk to them and offer a word of encouragement. That makes a difference in the atmosphere ," the midfielder stated.


He also highlighted that Ceni has given space to the young players from the academy, as was the case in the final against Confiança . For Ribeiro, this approach contributes to the development of the athletes and strengthens the squad.

FLAMENGO COMES FROM A DRAW IN THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP


Flamengo has not played since a 1-1 draw against Grêmio on August 31st, in the 22nd round of the Brasileirão . The calendar, which had been intense since before the Club World Cup , was softened by the FIFA World Cup break, between September 1st and 10th.

This break gave the squad a breather, having faced a marathon of recent commitments. The break was crucial for physical recovery and tactical adjustments, as well as allowing injured players to regain better conditions before the September season.


TECHNICAL COMMITTEE PLANS RESUMPTION

Even with the Copa do Brasil elimination to Atlético-MG, which initially seemed to open up more space in the calendar, the CBF made adjustments that kept the schedule tight . The coaching staff is taking advantage of the FIFA International Closure period to strengthen preparations for the decisive matches in the Copa Libertadores da América, as well as the fight for top spot in the Brasileirão.

Gerson's departure to Zenit St. Petersburg in the last transfer window changed the course of his recent career. The midfielder, a fixture on the Brazilian national team, has not been mentioned by Carlo Ancelotti since the transfer . The deal brought in €25 million (approximately R$160 million at the time) for the Mais Querido's coffers, a sum paid upfront by the Russian club.


Luiz Henrique, Gerson 's teammate at Zenit, revealed that he maintains close contact with the former Mengão player and highlighted that both have sought to maintain focus and physical fitness for a future opportunity with the national team.


"We talk daily. Gerson and I told each other to stay 100%, because Carlo Ancelotti has already said he's monitoring all the players. It doesn't matter if the athlete is in Russia or England," said Luiz Henrique.


GERSON ON THE RADAR?

The striker also emphasized that the Brazilian national team coach has been repeating that everyone is being watched: " Just because we're in Russia doesn't mean we're no longer being seen. We're maintaining our dedication, because the opportunity can always come, " he added.


CHALLENGE IN EUROPE

Despite the multi-million dollar transfer, Gerson has yet to replicate the prominence he enjoyed at Flamengo at Zenit. In Brazil, he established himself as a starter and an important player for the national team under Carlo Ancelotti. However, his adaptation to Russian football has been more difficult, which may have contributed to his absence from recent call-ups.
