Overview

  • STJD’s Plenary overturned the September first‑instance 12‑game ban and left only a R$100,000 penalty, keeping the Flamengo forward available to play.
  • Auditors rejected manipulation charges tied to the 1 Nov 2023 yellow card against Santos and framed the conduct as a regulatory breach under the CBJD.
  • Reports diverged on the vote count—listed as 6–3 or 5–3—while three votes backed suspension proposals of 270 days or 12 matches.
  • The R$100,000 sanction amounts to about 0.0067% of Flamengo’s projected 2025 revenue, drawing criticism over proportionality as club officials voiced respect yet said they were not fully satisfied.
  • This is the last domestic sporting instance, though a CAS appeal remains possible, and separate PF/MPDF criminal proceedings continue outside sports justice.
