Marcio Carlomagno is no longer the general superintendent of São Paulo. After meeting this Wednesday with Harry Massis Júnior, the club’s new president, the parties reached an agreement for the executive’s departure, just a few minutes after Julio Casares resigned from the presidential seat.
Carlomagno will continue performing his duties until February 2, but will leave São Paulo after this period.
Marcio Carlomagno was considered one of Julio Casares’ main ‘right-hand men’ at São Paulo. Behind the scenes, information indicated that the now former president was inclined to support the general superintendent in the presidential elections scheduled for the end of this year.
The information was initially reported by the blog “Tricolor na Web” and confirmed by Gazeta Esportiva.
Marcio Carlomagno was mentioned by name in an audio recording released by ge, which revealed an alleged illegal ticket-selling scheme for concerts in a VIP box at Morumbis. The executive, for his part, denied any financial involvement in the episode and stated that his name was used as a form of “pressure.”
Audio recordings between Douglas Schwartzmann, São Paulo’s assistant youth director, and Mara Casares, ex-wife of president Julio Casares and cultural and events director, revealed an illegal scheme for the sale of a VIP box for concerts held at Morumbis. After the case leaked, Schwartzmann and Mara requested leave from their positions.
In the recording, Schwartzmann admits that he, Mara, and others made money from the scheme. He states that Mara Casares received a VIP box from superintendent Marcio Carlomagno and sold tickets for the concert of Colombian singer Shakira, in February of this year.
The VIP box that prompted the leaked recording, now at the center of a judicial process, was 3A, in the east sector of Morumbis. In club documents, this space is listed as the “presidential room” and is located in front of the office of president Julio Casares.
The case is under investigation by the Department of Police for the Protection of Citizenship (DPPC), of the Civil Police. This Wednesday, authorities carried out a search and seizure operation related to the scheme. One of the prosecutors responsible for the case even stated that Morumbis had become a “gigantic slot machine.”
