Flamengo is approaching an important step towards getting its own stadium project off the ground. There are two possibilities on the radar for purchasing the area in the port area of Rio de Janeiro: Caixa agreeing to negotiate the location or City Hall expropriating it. In this context, the club wants to increase the area acquired to also build a parking lot.
The club decided to invest in two plots of land that will total 104 thousand square meters in the Gasometer area. One of them has 87 thousand square meters, for the construction of the stadium, and the other has approximately 17 thousand square meters, which would be transformed into a parking lot. Both belong to the investment fund managed by Caixa.
The meeting last Monday put Caixa's commitment to presenting the final value this Friday on the table. Flamengo believes it will receive a fair price to begin purchase negotiations, which should continue over the next few months. The tendency is for there to be no update in the next few days, as President Rodolfo Landim and his colleagues are traveling abroad. Conversations are expected to be resumed after they return to Brazil.
A recent report from the Fundação Instituto de Pesquisas Econômicas (FIPE) valued the 87,000 square meter plot of land at R$240.5 million. Caixa, however, understands that the value is much higher and points to the appreciation in the port area region. For the bank, the site is worth approximately R$400 million. The support of Rio City Hall, which defends the red-black project to enhance the region, is an asset for Flamengo in negotiations with Caixa. Mayor Eduardo Paes stated that he will expropriate the area if there is no reduction in the amounts requested from the club.
The expropriation of private land by the Executive Branch is provided for in the Constitution. There are a series of legal requirements for this, but in short, the measure is possible as long as there is public interest and payment of prior, fair, cash compensation. To speed up the negotiations, deputy Pedro Paulo, an ally of Eduardo Paes and Flamengo in this negotiation with Caixa, has insisted that the priority is for the federal institution to convey the real value of the land, leaving the Cepac discussions for another time. .
Cepac (Certificate of Additional Construction Potential) is a title that gives the builder of a property the possibility of changing the urban parameters established by the City Hall in an Urban Consortium Operation (OUC). At the beginning of the week, Paes stated, via Twitter, that the City Hall had committed to transferring the CEPACs and that it had forgiven Caixa's R$4 billion debt.
The result was crucial to reduce the gap to the leader

The 28th round of the Brazilian Championship ended with an important victory for Mais Querido. Last Sunday (29), Flamengo beat Athletico-PR 1-0 at Maracanã, ensuring their stay in the G-4 of the competition. The result was crucial in reducing the gap to the leader, Botafogo, which is now nine points. It is worth remembering that Mengão still has one game less, which could shorten the distance even further.
Playing at home, Rubro-Negro from Rio was superior on the field and carried out most of the offensive plays during the match. However, the winning goal only came 44 minutes into the second half, with Gerson, guaranteeing the three points for CRF. The triumph was essential for the team to remain among the top four in the table.
After winning the 28th round, Mengão now turns his attention to his next commitment in the Brazilian Championship. The team will face Bahia next Saturday (05), at 7pm (Brasília time), at Arena Fonte Nova, for the 29th round of the competition. The match will be another test for the team to maintain the rhythm and continue in the fight for the title.
With the victory over Athletico-PR, the Flamengo added three more points to its Brasileirão campaign. So far, the team has 14 wins, six draws and seven defeats, with 43 goals scored and 32 conceded. The team's regularity has been essential to remain in the fight for the top positions in the tournament.
Before returning to focusing on the Brasileirão, Rubro-Negro has an important mission for the Copa do Brasil. Next Wednesday (02), Flamengo will face Corinthians at Maracanã, in the first match of the competition's semi-finals. The team led by Tite is looking for a good result at home, as the decision to place in the final will be in São Paulo.
The fans present booed the Mais Querido coach a lot

Despite Mais Querido's victory over Athletico-PR, coach Tite did not escape harsh criticism from the fans at Maracanã. The fans' dissatisfaction, especially after the elimination in the Libertadores, was evident with boos and insults both upon the coach's arrival and departure from the stadium.
The team's irregular performance this season also contributed to the discontent of the Red and Blacks, who demanded more results and better performances.
During the post-game press conference, Tite commented on the protests from the fans, demonstrating understanding in the face of criticism. "I understand the demonstrations and the fans' love for the club. I seek to bring this maturity to the athletes so that they have the capacity to resist, resilience, to try as happened. That's why we deserve the score", declared the coach.
The pressure on Mengão increased last Thursday, when the team was eliminated from the Libertadores after draw at home with Peñarol. This result increased criticism of Tite's work and further shook the atmosphere at the club. Furthermore, the irregular performance in the Brazilian Championship, which removed the team from contention for the title, raised the tone of the fans' protests.
At the reunion with the fans, last Sunday, the frustration was evident. Even after the victory over Athletico-PR, chants of protest and dissatisfaction echoed in the stands, demonstrating that the climate of demand remains strong.
During the press conference, a journalist read a letter from an anonymous fan who questioned the coach about responsibility for the team's problems. Tite, in response, highlighted his commitment to work and dignity in the position. "I try to do my best, maybe I won't be the coach of your dreams. But the work and dignity you can be sure will always be there. Respect for you, the athletes and the entity will always be there", said the coach, showing confidence in leading the team.
Bank asks for billion-dollar compensation to free up land in the Port Zone

New information has emerged about the legal impasse involving Caixa Econômica Federal and the Gasologista land, located in the Port Zone of Rio de Janeiro, where Flamengo's future stadium is planned. The state bank demands compensation of R$1.08 billion to free up the area for the club.
DEMANDS FROM CAIXA ECONÔMICA FEDERAL
According to the website Exame, Caixa is charging R$240 million for land ownership and R$840 million for air rights for the work, which would allow for an expansion of the construction potential of the stadium project. Only with the payment of this amount would the bank be willing to provide the site for construction.
In 2024, the City of Rio de Janeiro, led by Mayor Eduardo Paes, expropriated the Gasometer land. Mais Querido then acquired the area at an auction for R$146 million. However, Caixa Econômica challenged the transaction in court, triggering a long legal battle that has not yet been resolved.
To try to resolve the conflict, Flamengo, City Hall and Caixa are looking for an agreement that could put an end to the legal disputes. A deadline of mid-November this year was set for the parties to reach a consensus and make progress on the stadium project possible.
