0The Brazilian calendar is on pause due to the FIFA Date. However, John Textor couldn't contain himself and spoke about Flamengo again this Sunday (8) on his social networks. The main shareholder of SAF Botafogo mocked Rubro-Negro's interest in implementing financial fair play.
On his social networks, Textor used an old photo of a mannequin wearing a Flamengo shirt and a Botafogo cap in a Mais Querido store: “Old photo, new meaning: Flamengo shirt R$349, Flamengo pants R$229. Blue cap with 'Gringo' gift logo (R$0)… Botafogo's financial fair play” , he wrote.
It is worth remembering that John Textor had already mentioned Flamengo on Wednesday (4) . On the occasion, the North American spoke about Mais Querido during a press conference.
"When people say that Eagle (Textor's company) spends a lot more money than Flamengo and Palmeiras, of course we did We had to build a squad from nothing. We had to return to Serie A and be competitive, we had four weeks to build a squad with 27 players and escape relegation. , and the contract required us to do exactly what is being done", said Textor at the time.
President Rodolfo Landim expressed discomfort with Botafogo's high investment in 2023. At the time, Mais Querido's representative highlighted that the rival team invested around 75 million euros (R$450 million). Thus, the value exceeds the revenue of General Severiano's team for the year, which was R$ 322 million.
Last week, the Club Commission met at the CBF headquarters to discuss a possible implementation of the financial fair play in Brazilian football. However, conversations are still at an early stage.
