STJD grants suspension effect to Bruno Henrique, player cleared to play | OneFootball

Bruno Henrique may return to play for Flamengo

Good news for Flamengo. This Saturday (13), the Superior Court of Sports Justice (STJD) granted a suspensive effect to the forward Bruno Henrique, who had been punished for alleged involvement with sports betting. However, the Most Beloved announced that the athlete will be out of the match against Juventude due to load control.

WHAT DOES THE STJD SAY?

“Furthermore, art. 53, § 4º, of Law n. 9.615/98 (Pelé Law) and art. 147-B, section II, of the CBJD do not confer discretion to the judge regarding the granting of the measure, imposing a binding character to the suspension of the effects of the penalty imposed, provided that the objective requirements are met, namely, that the penalty exceeds two matches or fifteen days of suspension, as well as the imposition of a fine penalty.

Therefore, the granting of the measure by legal force is necessary, for which reason I GRANT THE SUSPENSIVE EFFECT, in the terms of art. 53, § 4º, of Law nº 9.615/1998 and art. 147-B, section II, of the CBJD until the judgment of the declaration of appeal filed.”

WHAT IS THE CONTEXT?

Bruno Henrique was investigated and indicted for possible involvement with sports betting. On the occasion, the Flamengo striker received a yellow card against Santos, in 2023, at the Mané Garrincha Stadium, in Brasília, in a match valid for the Brazilian Championship. Shortly after, the referee expelled the number 27 for insisting on exaggerated complaints.

Thus, the STJD judged the case last Thursday (4) and had national repercussion. Bruno Henrique was suspended for 12 matches in competitions of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), such as the Brazilian Championship and the Brazil Cup. In addition, the rubro-negro athlete will have to pay a fine of R$ 60 thousand.

WILL HE PLAY?

Flamengo announced that it did not include Bruno Henrique for the match against Juventude this Sunday (14) due to load control. Therefore, the number 27 did not travel to Caxias do Sul to face the team from Rio Grande do Sul.

Thus, without Bruno Henrique, Flamengo faces Juventude this Sunday (14), at 4 pm (Brasília time), in a match valid for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship. The Coluna do Fla brings all the information, with Simon Lédo covering directly from Caxias do Sul.
