Esportes da Sorte has asked Corinthians to terminate their sponsorship agreement without a penalty, saying a federal measure suspending betting operations in Brazil makes continuing the deal unviable. The contract, renewed in February 2026 through 2029, provides for R$150 million annually; Corinthians says the outcome depends on the measure’s consideration by Congress.
Esportes da Sorte has notified Corinthians that it wants to end their main sponsorship contract without paying a penalty, citing the suspension of the agreement under Medida Provisória 1.394/2026, which prohibits betting houses from operating in Brazil. Corinthians holds that any decision on the contract depends on the outcome of the measure in the National Congress, the step needed to make the prohibition definitive.
