According to Léo José, Rodolfo Landim  president of Flamengo, is leading one of the Rio club's most ambitious projects: the construction of its own stadium. Although this has been a long-standing desire of fans, the development of this plan has been surrounded by a high degree of secrecy. Landim has strived to keep the details of the project away from prying eyes, creating an environment of mystery and expectation.

The project for Flamengo's own stadium is being treated in a highly confidential manner. Only the club's top brass and Landim's main supporters have access to the detailed document. This secrecy is no coincidence; it is a deliberate strategy to protect the negotiations and the club's interests while negotiations are ongoing.

LANDIM OPTS FOR SECRECY IN THE CASE

The decision to keep the project secret, in However, it did not please everyone within the Flamengo. Many club advisors and members have expressed interest in finding out more about the plans for the new arena. Several of them even directly asked Landim for the opportunity to see the project, but these requests were refused. The board justifies the stance as a necessary measure to guarantee the safety and viability of the project.


In March, an important meeting took place between Rodolfo Landim, Carlos Vieira, president of Caixa Econômica Federal, and Marcos Bodin, designated by Flamengo to lead the negotiations for the construction of the stadium. The main objective of the meeting was to discuss the club's plans for the construction of the new sports arena.

The Flamengo adopts a cautious stance in negotiating the football market and, unlike previous years, does not intend to make exorbitant financial investments to make up for shortages. The current management, led by president Rodolfo Landim, has already allocated more than R$329 million to signings this season, making it the second year with the highest spending since 2019, when the club spent R$360.9 million on reinforcements. Even with the large number of signings, the club still faces difficulties in balancing its finances due to low revenue from player sales.

In contrast to the high amount spent on reinforcements, Flamengo isstay experiencing the worst year in terms of athlete sales since Rodolfo Landim assumed the presidency. Transfers made so far total just R$71.4 million, a value that frustrates the board's expectations. Furthermore, important negotiations that could represent a significant improvement in the club's accounts, such as the sales of Wesley and Fabrício Bruno, ended up not materializing.


FLAMENGO ADOPTS CAUTION IN TIME OF CRISIS

This disparity between spending on reinforcements and the return obtained from sales reflects a market policy that, at the moment, has not generated the expected financial results. Despite attempts to negotiate players and alleviate the wage bill, Flamengo continues without major progress in the field of athlete transfers. The lack of success in sales directly affects the club's financial planning, which is looking for alternatives to deal with the high costs of maintaining a competitive squad without compromising its financial health.

The 2023 scenario contrasts sharply with the situation experienced in 2019, when Flamengo achieved a balance between expenses and revenue, driven by notable sales and strategic signings that led the team to important achievements. However, the current season presents an additional challenge: finding solutions to address shortages in the squad without further compromising the club's budget.


The lack of success in sales has directly impacted Flamengo's finances, which already had faced difficulties in closing the financial statement at the beginning of the year. With the lack of resources from the transfer of athletes, the board is forced to rethink its market strategy, avoiding signings at any cost and looking for more viable alternatives to strengthen the squad.

The presence of Bruno Henrique could be the key for Flamengo to overcome difficulties in the final stretch of the 2024 season. The team, under the command of coach Tite, remains active in all competitions, but lost Pedro, the team's top scorer. Brazil in the year, which shook confidence in the offensive sector. Gabigol and Carlinhos, immediate replacements for the center forward position, have not yet demonstrated the necessary security to maintain the goalscoring pace that the team needs.

Bruno Henrique, who has shone brightly in other moments for Flamengo, especially in the 2019 campaign under the command of Jorge Jesus, could be the solution to the problems in attack. He was tested by Tite as a center forward in some matches, but ended up losing space in the starting lineup. However, his versatility opens up an important possibility of resuming his role as number 9, something that Flamengo director Bruno Spindel recently highlighted at a press conference. Spindel mentioned that Bruno Henrique is a viable option for the position, expanding the possibilities for tactical adjustments in the team.


CAN THE KING OF AMERICA SAVE FLAMENGO?

< Bruno Henrique's performance as a center forward proved to be relevant in crucial moments, such as in the recent 1-0 victory against Bahia, in the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. The player, known for his decision-making ability in classics, scored the winning goal with a header, showing that, even out of his original position, he can still be decisive for the team. This result gives Flamengo an important advantage in the return match, which will take place on September 12th.

Bruno Henrique's story on Flamengoalready has remarkable passages, the most brilliant being in 2019, when under the command of Jorge Jesus, he experienced his peak with the red-black shirt. At that time, although he officially played as a left winger, his role on the field was much more dynamic. With Gabigol occupying a more advanced position in the attack, Bruno's movement was essential to create scoring opportunities. Gabigol dropped back to help with creation, often collaborating with Everton Ribeiro on the right, while Bruno Henrique took advantage of the spaces in the area to finish the plays.

Luiz Eduardo Baptista, better known as BAP, one of Flamengo's presidential candidates, recently shared his vision about building a new stadium for the club. On an official note, BAP addressed several critical points to ensure that the dream of its own stadium does not compromise the financial and sporting future of Rubro- Black. Below, we present the main excerpts of this statement and what they mean for fans and the future of the club.

Since 2012, Flamengo has been working to make the dream of having its own stadium come true. According to BAP, this is a desire shared by all Flamengo fans. "Just like every red and black fan, I want to have our stadium," said BAP. He highlighted that the efforts started more than a decade ago have been fundamental in making this dream possible.

FLAMENGO HAS ELECTIONS ON FIRE


However, he emphasizes that it is essential that this project does not compromise the club’s financial sustainability. One of the most controversial points addressed by BAP is the issue of Sociedade Anônima do Futebol (SAF). Recently, many Brazilian clubs have adopted this model as a way of attracting investment and making large projects viable.


However, BAP is emphatic in stating that this is not the solution to Flamengo. "We cannot let our fans' dreams be used to sell 1% of our club," he declared. He believes that Flamengo has the capacity to generate sufficient revenue on its own, especially with professional management, without the need to sell parts of the club.
