Flamengo posted an extensive video report this Friday (7), on its official YouTube channel, about the victory in the Maracanã bidding process. The consortium formed with Fluminense won the right to manage the stadium for the next 20 years. In the article, the story of the beginning of Fla and Flu's administration and the plans for the new period were told.

Flamengo's legal and general vice-president, Rodrigo Dunshee, Flamengo's CEO, Ronaldo Belotti , and the CEO of Maracanã, Severiano Braga, were interviewed in the article. First, the three recalled their memories at the stadium. Dunshee and Belotti, red and black, talked about historic games they had seen and Braga, who is from Minas Gerais, revealed that he had never seen a game at Maracanã.

Then, the three talked about how Flamengo took over the Maracanã, in 2019, on a provisional basis. Severiano Braga stated that the place was in a state of abandonment, without electricity and with serious problems with the water supply and air conditioning. Dunshee, who is a candidate for president of Flamengo with the support of president Rodolfo Landim, said that the stadium looked like a pigsty and was causing losses for everyone, including the clubs, concessionaire and the State Government.

In continuation, the three interviewees spoke of the improvements made in the five years of provisional concession. Severiano Braga highlighted the work with the pitch, which drew criticism from fans and the press. The Maracanã CEO said that today the two best grass companies in Brazil work at the stadium and the field situation has improved a lot, even with the high number of games.

Dunshee defended the area behind the goals no chairs

When they spoke about the future, the three agreed that with the concession of 20 years, shelved plans could become reality. Belotti talked about restaurants and other attractions for fans/customers. Braga cited the issue of coverage, which will require maintenance and eventual replacement.

At this point, Flamengo's pre-candidate for president, Rodrigo Dunshee, said he would like to see the Maracanã with areas behind the goal without the chairs, but only with standing fans. The VP said, however, that everything will be discussed with Fluminense in the new company that will manage Maracanã. In this company, Flamengo will have 65% control.

However, Mundo Rubro Negro read all the documents of the winning proposal sent by Flamengo and Fluminense to the Government of Rio. At no time was the possibility of withdrawing the chairs in the areas behind the goals are mentioned. The creation of an area for popular tickets is also not mentioned.
