So that there is no doubt about my situation in the recent episode of the departure of the Flamengo football leadership, I would like to communicate the following:

I followed Vice President Kleber Leite's decision to leave the football department's management.

However, I am responsible for the processes under my sponsorship.

Therefore, as a lawyer, I am and will always be at the disposal of CRFlamengo in sports courts.
