The auction of the Gasometer land, purchased by Flamengo for the construction of its stadium, continues with uncertainty after Caixa Econômica Federal, which manages the Porto Maravilha Real Estate Investment Fund (FII PM), asked for its annulment in court. According to the bank, there was a misuse of purpose during the process and favoritism of a single private entity.
Last Tuesday (13), the Mayor of Rio, Eduardo Paes, met with Eduardo Bandeira de Mello, former President of Flamengo, Maurício Gomes de Mattos, pre-candidate for president, and with partners linked to the red-black opposition, to discuss the auction and the land expropriation process, the conversation was recorded and the audio was released by the portal 'Mundo Rubro-Negro'.
In conversation , Eduardo Paes reveals that the bank accuses him of fraud in the process and even jokes about the situation. “Caixa has come, after doing so much media, now they are pulling the plug. I have been beaten up in several cases, saying that I cheated, that I committed bidding fraud. To give you an idea, all I have to do is end up in prison because of Flamengo. That's complete bullshit. Have you ever thought about despair? Why are you in prison? It helped Flamengo. P… it’s not possible, better soon the shooting”, said the mayor, declared a Vasco da Gama fan.
Next, Paes accuses Caixa of committing fraud by creating an “artificial” square meter number, overvaluing the land.
“I hope that Caixa Econômica doesn't try to lie, because this mayor here isn't stupid or anything. And we have several purchase and sale contracts for the real estate fund at value. One fine day, Caixa was negotiating the land and CEPAC for the private sector, to try to sell it to build buildings. And then, the CEPAC price of the property was very balanced. The square meter of land there was very balanced. Soon, when Flamengo's story begins, Caixa throws the price per square meter to the moon, and lowers the price of CEPAC. That's why I said it, if someone wants to leak it, it can be leaked, it's not for nothing that I'm saying what I'm saying here. But in fact they were the ones committing fraud. They were transforming an artificial square meter number there to try to overvalue and make the purchase of the land by Flamengo viable”, stated the mayor.
Last Tuesday (13) the Flamengo Deliberative Council approved an insurance- bail in the amount of R$ 41.4 million, to protect itself in case the Court increases the value of the land at Gasologista, purchased by the rubro-negro to realize the dream of its own stadium for R$ 138.2 million in 31 July 2024. The guarantee was signed with Banco XP.

Three weeks ago, Juninho's representatives presented the club with two loan offers from Arab football . The board, however, rejected the proposals, making it clear that they would only agree to a permanent deal for the striker for a fair fee. Thus, despite previously being on the "expendable" list, the player remained on the roster and will be reused.
Despite the limited opportunities he's had on the pitch so far, Filipe Luís expresses confidence in Juninho. The coach noted that the striker has performed well in training and is maintaining good physical shape. He is expected to return to the squad and earn playing time in the Brazilian Championship. It's worth noting that his signing was approved by the coaching staff at the time.
Bruno Henrique's suspension is unlikely to result in any market movements. Mengão was already considering the possibility of losing the number 27 and believes the current squad offers sufficient alternatives. Filipe Luís believes Pedro has reached his peak physical form and can assume a greater offensive role , while Gonzalo Plata and Wallace Yan are options for the midfield. Furthermore, Juninho will be reinstated in the Brasileirão squad.
The Superior Court of Sports Justice sentenced Bruno Henrique this Thursday (29) to a 12-game suspension and the payment of a fine of R$60,000 . The decision is valid for national competitions, such as the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil, but does not affect, for now, the Libertadores.
However, the case is expected to be referred to FIFA . If the governing body agrees to extend the ban, the striker will also be barred from international matches, increasing the impact of the punishment for Mengão.

Goalkeeper Bruno, a former Flamengo player , has returned to soccer, this time in an amateur tournament. After a period marked by one of the most controversial cases in Brazilian sports , the athlete is trying to find his place in a new arena.
The former goalkeeper's career gained notoriety both for his performance on the field and for the tragic episode involving the death of his ex-wife , Elisa Samudio, which culminated in his arrest and great national repercussion.
Rive Club recently officially announced the signing of Bruno for the 2025 Municipal de Alegre Championship. The board expressed enthusiasm for the new signing, citing the player's experience and technical ability. " The Rive board is pleased to announce goalkeeper Bruno as another addition to the Municipal de Alegre Championship 2025 ," the team announced on social media.
In a message to fans, the goalkeeper expressed excitement and gratitude for the opportunity. " Hello, Alegre! Beautiful and wonderful city. Hello, Rive fan. I want to tell you that I'm committed to the Municipal Championship. Next Sunday I'll be there defending Rive's colors, and we'll begin our journey, " he declared.
In March 2013, Bruno was sentenced to 22 years and three months in prison for the murder of Eliza Samudio . The court found him guilty of triple homicide, kidnapping, and concealment of a corpse.
The former goalkeeper was granted habeas corpus in February 2017 , but returned to prison two months later, following a decision by the First Chamber of the Supreme Federal Court. In July 2019, he was granted the right to progress to a semi-open prison regime. He has been on parole since January 2023.
The club raised R$518.4 million in sales, spent R$309 million on signings and expects historic revenue of over R$1.7 billion by the end of the year.
