Clube de Regatas do Flamengo e a quebra de paradigma nas transmissões de jogos: uma análise crítica da Medida Provisória 984/2020.

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze Provisional Measure 984/2020, commonly known as the “PM of the client”, which aimed at changing the wording of Law 9.615 / 98 (Lei Pelé), more specifically with regard to the right to commercialize image of sports practices in Brazil, especially with regard to football games. The aforementioned critical analysis will be based on the role played by the Clube de Regatas do Flamengo as an institution in search of its rights, demonstrating how a financially and administratively restructured club has the capacity to change standards of the television sports establishment, ending, even that the Provisional Measure has “expired”, with the transmission monopoly, often belonging to Grupo Globo. The choice of the Provisional Measure will also be analyzed as a legal remedy to make the clubs claim effective.
