Vasco hit back at Flamengo’s offer, check it out | OneFootball

Vasco da Gama reacted negatively to the suggestions presented by Flamengo in the debate about the Financial Fair Play project in Brazilian football. According to journalist Diogo Dantas, Vasco's management believes that the measures proposed by the red-black club do not contribute to the strengthening and recovery of national football.

Among the ideas raised by Flamengo is the creation of restrictions for clubs undergoing Judicial Recovery, preventing them from using the debt payment suspension period as a possible “competitive advantage.” The proposal includes everything from the blocking of new player registrations to point deductions in case of rule violations.

Behind the scenes, Vasco considered the initiative as unsupportive and contradictory, recalling that Flamengo itself benefited from similar mechanisms in the past — when it used the labor act to renegotiate and settle debts during its financial restructuring process, including with players like Ronaldinho Gaúcho.

The cross-maltese leadership argues that Financial Fair Play should be an instrument to balance conditions between clubs and encourage responsible management, not a punitive mechanism that could hinder the recovery of teams in delicate economic situations.

The topic remains under discussion among clubs and entities in Brazilian football, but the disagreement between Vasco and Flamengo highlights how far the debate over the new financial model is from reaching a consensus.
