After Zico's statement that Flamengo president Marcio Braga had been too hasty in saying that Galinho would lead the club's football in 2010, the club's president set out to clarify the situation. Braga reiterated that this is his dream, but that he can't really confirm anything at this time. The goal now is to speed up the CFZ incorporation process to facilitate Galinho's arrival at the helm. A meeting is scheduled for next week, when the former CSKA coach returns to Brazil. "Zico is arriving next week, and we're going to speed up the CFZ incorporation process. I can't announce it yet because I don't know if the process will be completed by January. And after that, I won't be president. We'll let him get there first. But of course, this is my dream, and I'm excited." Marcio Braga, who was removed from the presidency, is back in charge of Flamengo. In addition to trying to expedite the incorporation of CFZ, the Flamengo president intends to launch other projects in the coming days. "I'm the acting president until September 18th, and then I'll spend two weeks in Europe. I intend to accelerate this partnership with Zico and other projects: the Marketing Agency, Fla Novas Gerações (social responsibility), and Fla Olímpico. I won't be able to have everything ready right now, but when I return from my trip, I'll announce the details. I think this will make things easier for the new president's administration."
