Bap questions Leila’s Vasco loan, comments on Flamengo and Libra | OneFootball

Palmeiras president's company loaned R$ 80 million to Vasco before match between the teams

The Flamengo is going to leave Libra? Zero chance, assures the Flamengo president Luiz Eduardo Baptista. In a meeting of the Deliberative Council held this Tuesday (07), Bap spoke about this and several other subjects. In one of them, the president questioned the recent loan from Palmeiras president, Leila Pereira, to Vasco, through Crefisa, presided over by the director.

— There is a very clear agenda. We are talking about this Libra problem, and the company she presides over loaned money to Vasco's SAF. Who here has ever taken money from a financial institution? Does any bank ask for the shares of your poorly performing business or real assets as collateral? —, said Bap, therefore, during the meeting.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST?

On the eve of the clash between Palmeiras and Vasco, in the Brasileirão, Leila Pereira's Crefisa loaned R$ 80 million to the Rio club. So, the move, which had little repercussion, bothered Bap, who made the reported questions, after all. On the field, the Paulistas easily won, by 3 to 0, with the score defined at 25 minutes of the first half.

IS FLAMENGO LEAVING LIBRA?

With difficulties in negotiations with Flamengo, the Libra clubs want to exclude the Rubro-Negro. When asked if he intends to say goodbye to the group, Luiz Eduardo Bapista assured that the idea is to stay until 2029, as agreed in the contract.

“Zero chance of Flamengo leaving Libra. Flamengo will have to coexist until December 31, 2029 with Libra, and they will have to coexist until December 31, 2029 with Flamengo. Period”, said the Flamengo president, who also shared the plans for the post-period.

In summary, Bap stated that, after 2029, the future will be the use of FlamengoTV to broadcast the games. Therefore, the idea is to sell the broadcasting rights directly to the fans. Therefore, the director made a comparison with taxis and the switch to app-based transportation, or from old travel agencies to travel websites, without 'intermediaries'.
