Flamengo announce GAC as new kit sponsor | OneFootball

Flamengo have announced carmaker GAC as a new sponsor, following approval from the club’s Deliberative Council on Tuesday 24.

According to Coluna Do Fla, the brand will appear on the first-team shorts throughout this season’s competitions. The Manto Sagrado is described as the country’s most valuable kit.

The company framed the placement as apt, noting that legs power the game with strength, speed and sharp changes of direction, qualities it associates with performance, technology and dynamism.

GAC will also feature on training and pre-match shirts. The brand will be visible on the team bus and interview backdrops, with the possibility to display vehicles around Maracanã on matchdays.

At the Ninho do Urubu training centre there will be four fixed boards, with two more at the club’s social headquarters. During Campeonato Brasileiro matches, the brand will have one minute on LED boards per game and four big-screen slots at Maracanã, each 30 seconds.

Commercial director Marcos Senna welcomed the partnership, calling GAC a global and innovative company arriving in Brazil with a consistent brand strategy, and said Flamengo values partners who use the club to connect with millions.

GAC marketing and communications director Luis Fernando Guidorzi said sport is a platform for transformation and connection, and that partnering with Flamengo in 2026 shows the company intends to stay in Brazil, uniting passion, performance and innovation.
