Behind the scenes at Flamengo continues to be busy due to the presidential elections that will take place at the end of this year. This Thursday (05), Maurício Gomes de Mattos officially launched his candidacy, with the support of Eduardo Bandeira de Mello. During the event, the former president of Flamengo harshly criticized the current management, addressing issues such as the SAF (Sociedade Anônima de Futebol) and the distancing of fans.

“Mainly in the contribution of resources made by clubs who organized themselves as SAF. A solution that doesn't work for Flamengo, but that guarantees some opponents a moment or a bubble, perhaps, of competitiveness. With these resources that Flamengo generates today autonomously and organically, no other club in Brazil is able to do the same” , said the former President of the club.


Bandeira de Mello, alongside Maurício Gomes de Mattos, strongly criticized the proposal to implement the SAF in Flamengo. This is because Rodolfo Landim has already mentioned the possibility of discussing and voting on the adoption of this model at the club.


“We are able to face these challenges, but as long as we return to good governance and professionalism practices. We have human capital, and that is what you will see in the next three years. On the other hand, it is essential that Flamengo gets closer to its main asset, which is its fans, the main reason for its greatness. Treat fans with respect and make them represent a vector for the recovery of our image, growth and affirmation”, concludes Bandeira de Mello.
