Fatal Fans secures Gisela Robledo at Corinthians for another season | OneFootball

Corinthians have secured Gisela Robledo’s stay in the women’s squad for another season. This Saturday (5), the club announced that Fatal Fans, one of Timão’s sponsors, will make an additional investment to make it possible to renew the Colombian forward’s contract for another 12 months.

The funding for the player’s stay will be provided on top of the amounts already set out in the sponsorship agreement between the company and Corinthians. The move comes at an important point in the Brabas’ calendar, as they compete in the decisive stages of the Brazilian Championship and prepare for the Women’s Libertadores, scheduled for October.

The renewal also fulfills a request from the coaching staff. Since taking charge of Corinthians, Emily Lima had already publicly expressed her interest in continuing to count on Gisela. During negotiations over the new deal, the forward also drew interest from clubs abroad.

Board highlights importance of her stay

Corinthians women’s football director Iris Sesso praised the sponsor’s role in the negotiations. The executive highlighted Gisela’s sporting importance to the squad and recalled the decisive commitments the team will face ahead.

“Having Fatal Fans by our side, supporting Gisela Robledo’s renewal, is very important for our squad. We are entering the most important moment of the season, with decisive matches ahead, including the CONMEBOL Women’s Libertadores. Gisela’s stay is essential. She is a very important athlete on and off the pitch and helps us maintain the team’s strength and competitiveness. I thank Fatal Fans for this partnership and for believing in women’s football. We move forward together, working to reach the end of the season and achieve all our goals!” said Iris Sesso.

Fatal Fans’ participation represents a specific investment to keep the forward at Parque São Jorge and not the use of funds already established in the current commercial agreement between the parties.

Sponsor expands involvement in women’s football

According to Samuel Ongaratto, partner and director at Fatal Fans, the investment in Gisela’s renewal is part of the company’s strategy to expand its involvement in initiatives related to women’s football.

“We strongly believe in women’s football and understand that it is essential to support the sport on different fronts. Fatal Fans has sought to do that since arriving at Corinthians, and Gisela’s renewal is another example of that commitment. She is an important athlete for the club, the team, and the fans, and we are very happy to be able to contribute so that she remains at Corinthians. This investment is an extra to our sponsorship contract and adds to other initiatives we have been developing.”

In addition to the financial contribution for the new deal, the company prepared special content to mark the Colombian’s stay.

Fatal Fans is a platform focused on connecting content creators, fans, and subscribers and is part of the Fatal Model Group. The company already has a commercial relationship with Corinthians and is now expanding its involvement through an initiative directly linked to maintaining the women’s squad.

Gisela remains available to Emily Lima

With the new 12-month agreement, Gisela will continue to be part of the group led by Emily Lima and will be able to take part in the Brabas’ upcoming challenges.

Corinthians’ next commitment will be a decisive match in the Brazilian Women’s Championship. This Monday (7), at 5 p.m. (Brasília time), the team will face Cruzeiro at Canindé in the second leg of the quarterfinals. The Brabas won the first meeting 1-0 at Arena Independência and hold the advantage of a draw to advance.

In October, Timão will also travel to Quito, Ecuador, where they will defend the Women’s Libertadores title. The continental competition will be held between the 15th and 31st of next month.

With the renewal made possible by Fatal Fans, Corinthians ensure Gisela Robledo’s continuity in their plans and keep one of the players the coaching staff wanted for the rest of the season.
