According to the Máquina do Esporte sports news website, the consortium is now looking at a second round of agreements with each of the clubs in order to control all stadium assets.
This would involve not only the sale of the advertising boards but “activation actions in the field, in social networks, branding, promotions, public relations and institutional relations,” the consortium said.
Máquina do Esporte reported that Sport Promotion already has two club clients in Corinthians and Flamengo.
