Flamengo has moved behind the scenes and signed the largest master sponsorship contract in Brazilian football history, alongside Betano. The brands have even signed a partnership until the end of 2028. The director of the betting house, Guilherme Figueiredo, revealed that one of the possible actions are friendlies of Mengão with other teams sponsored by the company.
— Without a doubt, yes. There is a big challenge, which is the issue of the calendar, to adjust the teams' calendar. But this is, in fact, in our contract, that both parties would make their best efforts for this to happen -, he said, before concluding:
— For us, it would be wonderful. We have historic teams, like River itself, and great European clubs, which, without a doubt, would be spectacular. Both them coming to Maracanã, as well as Flamengo being there. In these three years of partnership, we will certainly have time for that -, concluded Guilherme, in an interview with 'FlamengoTV'.
Betano sponsors several clubs in world football. One of the friendlies, in fact, can be a rematch of the quarterfinals of the FIFA Club World Cup, since Bayern Munich (GER) has a bond with the betting house. It's worth remembering that Flamengo faced the German team in the first phase of the knockout stage, but ended up losing.
Beyond Germany, Betano is also present in various other parts of the world. Some of the sponsored teams are: River Plate (ARG), Aston Villa (ENG), Sporting (POR), Benfica (POR), Porto (POR), Sparta Prague (CZE), Paok (GRE), Olympiacos (GRE), Panathinaikos (GRE), Steaua Bucharest (ROM), and Brøndby IF (DEN).
Flamengo and Betano have signed the largest master sponsorship contract in Brazilian football history. The agreement provides for R$ 268.5 million per year guaranteed, plus bonuses for performance, conversions, and sales. In addition, the total value can approach R$ 1 billion with the variables.
