The Flamengo is finally seeing plans to have its own stadium moving forward. The step of purchasing the Gasometer land has already been done and now it is time to follow the schedule established by the board. However, President Rodolfo Landim assured that even with his arena, he will not abandon the Maracanã, the current red-and-black home.
- If we were to see all the stadiums in Brazil, they are stadiums in which to you play 30-odd dates a year on average. Here at Maracanã it's the opposite, there are 70 dates, seventy something dates. We will continue to have demands from Flamengo here, I have always said that I imagine that Maracanã is the perfect stadium for regional classics. Those from Fluminense will already be here because they are our partner at Maracanã. Just then there are a few more games", said the director.
In principle, as soon as Flamengo's arena is able to host games, Maracanã will be vacant for numerous dates. Therefore, the red president -Negro believes that negotiations for Vasco to play in the most iconic stadium in Rio de Janeiro will become more peaceful.
"We know that Vasco is interested in some dates at Maracanã, they have always shown that. The difficulty we had was adapting this to the football calendar, which is a huge complication. And also associated with the problem of lawn maintenance. Eventually, with Flamengo taking its games away from here, it becomes easier to accommodate Vasco's fair demand."
In short, Landim recalled that the Brazilian team will continue to play at Maracanã and made it clear that shows can be held at the The important thing is to be careful with the lawn.
"Maracanã can be used for other things too. Then having fewer games and developing other techniques that don't harm the pitch, putting on shows will be something we will have to talk about with Fluminense. I have no doubt that Maracanã will remain viable, regardless of the construction of a new stadium for Flamengo."
Fla's next appointment at Maracanã

Flamengo is taking a break from the pitch due to the FIFA World Cup, but the team's recent form is raising alarm bells . In the last five games of the season, the team has scored just three goals and won just one match.
In its most recent matches, Flamengo only defeated Corinthians, 2-1, in a comeback, in the 25th round of the Brasileirão . Furthermore, it drew with Vasco and Cruzeiro, and was defeated by Estudiantes (Libertadores) and Bahia (Brasileirão). During this period, the team failed to score in three matches, an offensive performance well below expectations for a star-studded squad.
The red-and-black attack has been a source of concern for Filipe Luís. In the last ten games, the coach has repeated his attacking line only once: the trio of Gonzalo Plata, Samuel Lino, and Pedro, who were together in the 8-0 rout of Vitória and the 1-1 draw with Grêmio. The lack of continuity and frequent changes have impacted the team's offensive fluidity, which struggles to convert possession into clear-cut chances.
With the calendar suspended, Filipe Luís is taking advantage of the period to recover worn-out players and correct tactical flaws . The 1-0 loss to Bahia cost Palmeiras the lead in the Brasileirão. Both teams have 55 points, but Flamengo is in second place due to wins, an advantage for the São Paulo team.
Flamengo's return to action will be on October 15th, against Botafogo, at 7:30 pm (Brasília time) at Nilton Santos Stadium, for the 28th round of the Brasileirão. The classic will be broadcast live on Premiere (pay-per-view) and promises to be an important test to gauge the squad's response after the FIFA World Cup break.
Exclusive investigation indicates that the midfielder is focused on Zenit and is not in talks with the São Paulo team; Mengão focuses on renewals for 2025

According to information released by journalist Felippe Facincani, Gerson would be willing to return to Brazilian football and had held initial talks with Palmeiras. However, an investigation by Gazeta do Urubu indicates that this information is untrue. The midfielder has been at Zenit for four months and has yet to make his full debut for the Russian club, as he is recovering from an injury suffered shortly after his arrival.
The player hasn't played in 50 days and hasn't even participated in a single official match for the St. Petersburg team . Therefore, negotiations with any Brazilian team are unlikely at this time. Sources close to the player assure that he remains focused on recovery and regaining his place in the Zenit squad.
Flamengo 's name was even considered, but a return is practically ruled out. The relationship between Marcão, Gerson's father and agent, and the Flamengo board has remained strained since the player's tumultuous departure. Furthermore, the squad already boasts recent midfield reinforcements like Jorginho and Saúl, which eliminates the need for new signings in that area.
On Palmeiras' side, although coach Abel Ferreira has been mentioned in some speculation, the São Paulo club is not in talks with the player. The investigation itself confirms that, to date, there has been no formal contact or concrete interest from the Palmeiras board.
While Gerson seeks a place in Russia, Flamengo 's board focuses its efforts on securing the continued presence of key players. José Boto is working on extending Giorgian De Arrascaeta's contract until 2028 , reinforcing the club's long-term sporting plan.
The midfielder would be willing to return to Brazilian football, and representatives are in contact with the São Paulo team; Zenit agrees to negotiate in January

According to journalist Felippe Facincani, midfielder Gerson is reportedly interested in returning to Brazil next season . His staff is in initial talks with Palmeiras , although the process is still in the preliminary stages. The player, currently at Zenit, was acquired for €25 million (approximately R$157 million), which represents a financial obstacle for any interested Brazilian club.
The Russian team's board is reportedly willing to release the player in January , provided they receive a satisfactory offer. However, Gerson hasn't been a regular starter in Zenit's squad, which facilitates a possible negotiation.
A return to Flamengo is considered unlikely at this point. The relationship between Marcão, Gerson's father and agent, and the Flamengo board has remained strained since the player's tumultuous departure . Furthermore, the club recently signed defensive midfielders Jorginho and Saúl, bolstering the midfield and reducing the need for further investments in that area.
On the green and white side, Palmeiras appears to be the most viable option, mainly because it offers the player greater visibility. Gerson's goal is to play in the 2026 World Cup, and the showcase of Brazilian football could help him regain his place on the national team. Coach Abel Ferreira has reportedly already given the green light for a possible deal, although sources close to Gazeta do Urubu indicate that negotiations are currently underway.
While Gerson decides his future in Europe, Mengão's board is focusing its efforts on retaining key players . Executive director José Boto is working on extending Giorgian De Arrascaeta's contract until 2028, aiming to ensure the Uruguayan midfielder remains a cornerstone of the team.
