What is the issue between Flamengo and Libra?


The debates regarding the amounts that clubs receive from Libra continue to stir discussion. After Flamengo managed to block the transfer of R$ 77 million from Globo to the other teams, the court modified the injunction and reduced the block to R$ 1.6 million.

Thus, Flamengo has five business days to appeal the decision and explain the reason for wanting to block the full amount. Otherwise, the smaller amount will be maintained and the remaining payment should be released in the coming days. The information is from ‘Uol’.

What is happening between Flamengo and Libra?

Flamengo is facing a real behind-the-scenes battle. That’s because the Rubro-Negro does not agree with the current distribution of revenue from broadcasting rights within Libra.

Thus, Flamengo even presented a proposal so the club would not be so adversely affected regarding the amounts. However, teams like Palmeiras, Santos, among others, did not even agree to discuss the matter with the Rubro-Negro.

What action did Flamengo take?

Frustrated by the lack of agreement with the other Libra clubs, Flamengo went to court to block Globo’s transfer to the teams. The drastic measure taken by Mengão comes due to the lack of dialogue from the other teams, according to the Rubro-Negro.

When is Flamengo’s next match?

Amid the dispute with Libra, Flamengo takes the field this Sunday (19) to face Palmeiras. The match kicks off at 4 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Maracanã, for the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship.

Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring the best coverage on the internet via YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Globo (free-to-air), GE TV (YouTube) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Flamengo vs. Palmeiras match.
