The President of Flamengo, Rodolfo Landim, received space from publicist Washington Olivetto in the newspaper 'O Globo', to talk about the new stadium that the red-black team intends to build on the Gasologista land, which the More Querido won in auction on July 31st for R$138.2 million after the city of Rio de Janeiro expropriated the space.
No text, Rodolfo Landim begins by pointing out that the actions taken by Flamengo end up generating controversy due to little understanding regarding the process and the city of Rio de Janeiro . The agent writes that the expropriation process took place on land that had not been used and was used irregularly for a long time.
“There are those who criticize the mayor of Rio for expropriating the area, without taking into account that that unoccupied land, with a privileged location, has been unused for decades, which contributes to its current state of abandonment. As it stands, the area recently acquired by Flamengo does not generate jobs and does nothing to strengthen the municipality's economic-financial scenario”, stated Landim.
The red-black president guarantees that “the construction of a sports arena there for 80 thousand fans will result in the modernization of its entire surroundings, including the Port Zone, Porto Maravilha and neighboring regions. In addition to the joy and pride of the red and black fans, the benefits generated by the stadium will extend to millions of Rio de Janeiro residents.”
Rodolfo Landim also states that the requirements of the notice, which will have to be fulfilled by Flamengo, foresee a large investment in the area not only for the construction of the stadium, but for the revitalization of the region and to guarantee mobility facilities for the citizens of Rio de Janeiro.

The road and infrastructure interventions in those 87 thousand square meters will be carried out using the best and most modern urban mobility solutions. The creation of jobs is another relevant point, since putting a dream that could cost between R$1.5 billion and R$2 billion into practice will require the hiring of a large volume of labor, creating jobs and income for workers from all sectors. fans”, list.

Rodolfo Landim defends the SAF to help raise funds for the project, which is frowned upon by red and black fans.
The decision was made after a press conference with coach Filipe Luís, who exposed the striker's actions in a press conference this Saturday (12), after the victory over São Paulo

After Flamengo's victory over São Paulo this Saturday (12), coach Filipe Luís spoke out about Pedro's actions in the club's daily life. The Mais Querido coach highlighted that the number 9 had unacceptable behavior. Therefore, the athlete's representatives will seek proposals for the player to leave Rubro-Negro.
" We're going to make an offer to Flamengo and try to find a way out ," a representative for Pedro told journalist Venê Casagrande. The response came after a press conference with coach Filipe Luís, who explained the reason for the player's departure.
Pedro was not included by Filipe Luís for the match against São Paulo this Saturday (12). Thus, the coach explained, in a press conference, that the player had unacceptable behavior. In addition, the coach stated that the number 9 should apologize and that he has been training below expectations.
"Pedro's behavior and attitude during the week was deplorable, bordering on ridiculous. Pedro has his personal issues with the club's board, but he's been training poorly for a while now. This week, however, he broke a clear principle we have as a coaching staff and players: training culture ," the coach emphasized before adding:
"For me, what he did was disrespectful, his behavior in training. I didn't hesitate for a moment to leave him out of this game, as this behavior can be contagious. I hope he recovers, apologizes to his teammates and goes back to being Pedro. It's not just a lack of respect for his teammates, it's also for himself, " said Filipe Luís .
Pedro returned from a serious injury a few months ago. Since then, the center forward has appeared in 17 matches for Flamengo. He has scored five goals and provided three assists for his teammates.
The Mais Querido full-back is being targeted by Roma and other European giants, but has not yet received any official offer.

Roma is watching Wesley, who is still being watched by other clubs and may be leaving Flamengo. The number 43 confirmed during halftime of the match against São Paulo that there is a chance he will leave the club soon.
Wesley talks about a possible departure from Flamengo: "This is a matter for Flamengo's board and my agents ."
Wesley's contract with Flamengo runs until December 2028. Flamengo is demanding €30 million (R$195 million) to sell the young full-back. The player has also made clear his desire to play for a European club.
Therefore, Wesley is one of Roma's (ITA) priorities. This is because the Italian team hired coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who was at Atalanta (ITA). The coach had even considered signing the full-back while he was still at the previous team, but negotiations failed.
Thus, while Wesley does not receive an official offer, Flamengo remains focused on the next commitments of the season. Rubro-Negro returns to the field on Wednesday (16), against Santos, at Vila Belmiro, at 8 pm.
The Mais Querido pointed out the problems that the full-backs had; it is worth remembering that the Rubro-Negro's number 6 suffered a strong tackle from Enzo Diaz

This Saturday (12), Flamengo beat São Paulo by 2-0, in a match valid for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. However, throughout the match, Mais Querido suffered two important losses: Alex Sandro and Ayrton Lucas. Thus, Rubro-Negro updated the situation of the athletes.
It is worth remembering that after a clash with Enzo Diaz, a deep cut was found on Ayrton Lucas ' leg. After the game, Flamengo issued a statement revealing "bone exposure" in the player's wound. In addition, the club took the opportunity to talk about the situation of Alex Sandro, who will undergo tests this Sunday (13).
Left-back Ayrton Lucas suffered direct trauma to his left leg during the second half of the 2-0 victory over São Paulo, resulting in a blunt force trauma of approximately 8 cm. The player received local anesthesia in the locker room, where Flamengo doctor, Dr. Fernando Sassaki, cleaned and initially examined the wound. After confirming the bone exposure, a dressing was applied and the player was then sent for an x-ray, which ruled out a fracture in the region. Ayrton was taken to Barra D'Or Hospital, where he will undergo surgery. The player will remain hospitalized for at least 48 hours for antibiotics and infection prevention .
"The player felt pain in the posterior muscle of his left thigh in the first half of Flamengo 2 x 0 São Paulo. He will undergo an MRI scan on Sunday (13) ," Flamengo said in a statement issued to the press.
Thus, with Alex Sandro and Ayrton Lucas being doubtful, it is likely that Filipe Luís will once again field Varela at left-back for Flamengo . Rubro-Negro returns to the field on Wednesday (16), against Santos, at Vila Belmiro, at 8 pm.
