The Public Ministry of Rio de Janeiro (MPRJ) filed an appeal with the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) to try to overturn the decision that removed Ednaldo Rodrigues from the presidency of the CBF. The Rio MP seeks the suspension of the sentence of the 21st Private Law Chamber of the Rio Court of Justice (TJ-RJ).
The analysis will be ugly by the president of the STJ, Maria Thereza de Assis Moura, who has already denied an effect suspension of the same decision, but on appeal made by the CBF. The MP's attempt is to have him recognized as a legitimate agent to propose the Conduct Adjustment Term (TAC) signed by the CBF during Ednaldo's interim administration.
Why is the MP's TAC crucial in the story?
The document was the foundation for holding the election aiming for a four-year term, in March 2022. The MP's line of argument had already been adopted in the trial of the case, in the TJ-RJ and will in the following line: there is social interest in the matter as it involves football and a consumer relationship between fans and the CBF.
Why the other appeal, from the CBF, was denied
The decision of the president of the STJ in the CBF's appeal addressed procedural and legal issues to question the legitimacy of the CBF in trying to suspend the TJ-RJ sentence.
Among other points, she considered factors that could also be obstacles to the legitimacy of the MP in the TAC issue:
- "The Public Civil Action filed by the Public Prosecutor's Office against a legal entity governed by private law, which does not carry out public activity, neither directly nor under concession or delegation."

-The CBF and other sports entities "do not carry out public activities, either due to the factual nature of their purposes, or due to the absence of a normative act that recognizes them as providers of state services; do not perform public service; they do not exercise any part of state power; they are not delegates or concessionaires of any activity essential to the State or that is related to the Public Administration; and do not manage primary public interest".
And what about the CBF?
With Ednaldo deposed, whoever controls the entity, by court decision, is the licensed president of the Superior Court of Justice Desportiva (STJD), José Perdiz. He has, in total, 30 working days to call new elections. The deadline expires in the week of January 22nd.

The headquarters of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), in Rio de Janeiro, was the target of a Federal Police operation on Wednesday morning (30). The agents carried out a search and seizure warrant related to Operation Caixa Preta, which investigates alleged electoral crimes committed in Roraima. The president of the entity, Samir Xaud, was one of the targets.
CBF releases statement on the case: "The operation has no relation whatsoever with the CBF or Brazilian football"
Despite the police presence, nothing was seized, according to the CBF itself. The organization also stated, in an official statement, that the director " is not the focus of the investigation " and that the operation has no connection with football or the confederation.
According to the Federal Police, the operation focused primarily on Federal Deputy Helena Lima (MDB-RR), whose deputy is Samir Xaud in the Chamber . She is suspected of involvement in a vote-buying scheme. Ten search and seizure warrants were executed, and R$10 million was frozen in the accounts of those under investigation.
The investigation began during the 2024 municipal elections, when businessman Renildo Lima, the parliamentarian's husband, was arrested with R$500,000 in cash , part of which was hidden in his underwear. According to sources close to Samir Xaud, PF agents remained at the CBF headquarters for about 30 minutes. No material was seized during the operation.
In an official statement, the CBF declared: "The operation has no connection with the CBF or Brazilian football, and president Samir Xaud is not the focus of the investigation. The entity has not received any official information about the subject of the investigation . No equipment or materials were taken by the agents. The president remains calm and at the disposal of the authorities for any clarification."

Two young Brazilians on the rise on the international sports scene have demonstrated mutual admiration : 20-year-old driver Gabriel Bortoleto, in his debut season in Formula 1 with Sauber, and 18-year-old tennis player João Fonseca , who competes on the ATP professional circuit.
Gabriel Bortoleto on João Fonseca: "He is incredible"
In an interview with the official F1 website, Bortoleto was asked what career he would pursue if he weren't a driver. His response was good-natured: "I admire a Brazilian, João Fonseca . He's incredible. He's climbing the ATP rankings, and I think he'll be a future star ."
Despite his admiration for tennis, the Brazilian admitted that his experience in the sport is still limited. "Tennis is fascinating, I love watching it and I like the players' mentality , but I don't play it often. I play a lot of padel, but I need to start playing real tennis."
When asked where he sees himself in five years, Bortoleto was blunt: " I'd like to be world champion ." According to him, being in F1 is already part of that process: "The best drivers in the world are here. I've always wanted to be here precisely to fight against them and, who knows, become the best one day."
A native of São Paulo, the driver began his karting career at the age of six and now rubs shoulders with some of the biggest names in motorsports. He also praised his team principal, Mattia Binotto , and highlighted the importance of idols like Ayrton Senna.
Bortoleto also revealed his closeness with current four-time world champion Max Verstappen. " Max and Ollie Bearman are the two guys I'm closest with in the paddock . I started playing video games with Max, and then we started training together on the simulator, back in the Formula 3 days."
According to the Brazilian, this friendship has evolved, and today the two share time off the track. " We have a group of friends with whom we play simulators . I'm even an ambassador for his team, Team Redline. Since then, we've spent a lot of time together—and it's been a lot of fun."
