Flamengo approve GAC kit deal to 2029 worth R$ 12.5m a year | OneFootball

Flamengo’s deliberative council approved a new kit sponsorship with Chinese carmaker GAC on Tuesday night in Gávea. According to Globo.com, the three-year agreement runs to 2029 and is worth R$ 12.5 million per year, with the brand to appear on match shorts plus training and pre-match shirts.

GAC will also feature on the team bus and interview backdrops, with the option to display vehicles around the Maracanã on matchdays. The company will have four fixed boards at Ninho do Urubu and two at the Gávea headquarters.

During Campeonato Brasileiro fixtures, the automaker receives one minute of LED board exposure per game and four inserts on the Maracanã big screens.

In early March, Flamengo approved a separate deal with consórcio firm Ademicon for the lower front bar of the men’s match, training and warm-up shirts. The brand has not yet appeared because the signing was delayed, but paperwork was completed on Tuesday. That contract also runs to 2029 and is worth R$ 42 million in total, R$ 14 million per year.

Both new partners are expected to debut after the FIFA international window, next Wednesday away to Bragantino in the Campeonato Brasileiro.

The Rubro-Negro kit portfolio now totals R$ 450 million annually, although the BRB agreement, worth R$ 25 million per year on the scapula area, expires at the end of this month.
