Six Brazilian top-flight clubs lack betting shirt sponsors
Six of Brazil’s 20 top-flight football clubs began the season without a betting sponsor on their kits, according to a report published on 29 January. The report said clubs received an estimated BRL1 billion from betting sponsorships in 2025; licensed operators became the only firms eligible to sponsor in Brazil when regulation took effect on 1 January 2025.
The sponsorship figures and licensing condition indicate how Brazil’s betting rules shape operators’ access to football partnerships.
