After Pedro ‘scare’, Flamengo asks fans to design new shirt | OneFootball

Flamengo fans can take part in campaign launched this Tuesday (14)

Flamengo unveiled, this Tuesday (14), a brand-new campaign to bring the club’s supporters even closer. Called Manto da Nação, the initiative will allow Rubro-Negro fans to create an official jersey, which will be chosen by popular vote and produced in a limited edition. Before the announcement, however, the club used Pedro to spark fans’ curiosity on social media.

The striker posted an Instagram story with the phrase “soon I’ll be wearing a new shirt,” which led many Flamengo supporters to speculate about a possible departure for the No. 9. Shortly afterward, the mystery was cleared up by the player himself in a video released by Flamengo.

IN SHORT, HOW DOES MANTO DA NAÇÃO WORK?

The initiative will allow fans to submit original designs for the jersey. After the submission period, a committee will select ten finalists. Then, the fans themselves will decide through online voting which kit will be officially produced by Flamengo. The winning model will be sold in a limited edition, available for order during an exclusive one-week period.

Check out the campaign schedule:

SO, WHO CAN TAKE PART?

Entries are open until August 9. To participate, you must be over 18 and submit an original project in PDF format, with a maximum size of 20 MB, along with a text explaining the concept behind the design.

The campaign winner will receive R$10,000, in addition to one unit of the shirt produced with their own design. The other nine finalists will also receive a copy of the model chosen by the fans.

AFTER ALL, WHAT DOES FLAMENGO EXPECT FROM THE FANS?

In an official statement, the club emphasized that the proposal goes beyond creating a uniform and aims to represent Rubro-Negro identity through the participants’ creativity. “Flamengo invites participants to go beyond aesthetics. Each proposal should tell a story and translate, in a creative and original way, the Rubro-Negro identity. A remarkable moment, a character, a tradition, a symbol, or the strength of the stands can serve as inspiration to create a unique Manto, made by the Nation and for the Nation,” the club published.
