Flamengo has already decided who will be their new Master Sponsor, after leaving Pixbet. This Tuesday (19), the contract will undergo vote on the Deliberative Council.
The confidentiality regarding the chosen is great, so much so that the name of the company did not appear in the call document, sent on Saturday morning to the counselors.
The three betting houses sent proposals with values over R $ 200 million per year, figures that make Flamengo the best paid club in Master Patrocínio in Brazilian football.
The chosen one will stamp the most important space of the red-black uniform on the male and female professional team, as well as basketball. The “Flamengo Time” of Olympic sports will also be contemplated in the agreement.
Why did Flamengo broke with Pixbet?
The dissatisfaction of the board began when the betting house stopped honoring the salaries. Internally, Pixbet admits difficulty in cash flow and, therefore, has moved away from a possible renewal.
The departure of the company did not involve termination. The contract, signed in 2024, ends later this year and has the possibility of automatic renewal for two more, a fact that would yield another R $ 250 million to Flamengo.
Faced with financial difficulties, however, Pixbet did not exercise the clause. The departure will also end Flabet’s operations, Flamengo’s official house at Pixbet. The Rio club would receive $ 50 million more for the partnership if it renewed the contract.
