Flamengo until made payment for the Gasologista land, where the stadium will be built. However, Caixa Econômica is trying to invalidate the result of the auction held on July 31st. But Rubro-Negro received good news this Wednesday (14). The City of Rio de Janeiro won an important legal battle against the bank and the Attorney General's Office (AGU) to maintain Mengão's triumph in purchasing the Gasometer area.
The 7th Court of Federal Justice, through by judge Dmitri Vasconcelos Wanderley, the only one who had ruled in favor of Caixa, backed down and accepted an appeal from City Hall, which is on Flamengo's side in the dispute. Dmitri was the one who issued an injunction in the action of lawyer Vinicius Monte Custódio on the eve of the auction, causing apprehension in Fla.

Angry with the measure, Caixa filed a petition in the process, alleging a misuse of the purpose of the auction. The bank was irritated by the presence of politicians wearing Flamengo shirts on the day of the red-and-black auction, for R$ 138.1 million.
Flamengo follows the planning and has held meetings for the construction of the stadium . Rubro-Negro's idea is to inaugurate the arena on November 15th, the club's anniversary. However, the year is undefined: 2028 or 2029. Until the new house is ready, Mengão will remain at Maracanã.
