Health services company Unimed Seguros has signed up as a sponsor of the Brazil national team.

Unimed Seguros struck the agreement with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). The deal will run for six years and covers all levels of the Brazil national team, including the U-15, U-17, U-20, U-23 and women’s team, as well as the senior men’s team. Financial details were not revealed.
