Santos is preparing to face Botafogo-SB on Tuesday (11), at 7 pm, away from home, in the first leg of the third stage of the Brazilian Cup. While Odair Hellmann leads activities on the field, the board continues to work behind the scenes to put planning for the season into action. In the midst of the crisis at Villa Belmero, the news excited the fans this Monday (10), as Neymar helped Peixe in a millionaire deal and “shocked” everyone.

That’s because, according to journalists Marcelo Hazan and Lucas Musetti, of UOL Esportes, Santos is negotiating with a new major shirt sponsor worth around R$45 million for a two-year contract. This is Blaze, which will replace Pixbet. The value offered by the new online bookmaker is more than double the amount raised with the company currently occupying the prime space in Peixe.

Talks between Santos and Blaze have been going on for some time, and Alvinegro Praiano’s board of directors is trying to negotiate an amicable agreement with Pixbet, the current sponsor, to replace the brand before the end of the current contract. Peixe started the negotiations on her own and got Neymar Sr.’s help in the final talks. It is important to note that the online bettor has Neymar Jr.

Another important fact is that on Friday (14), Santos turns 111 years old. For this reason, it is in the board’s interest to reach an agreement with Blaze as soon as possible to announce the novelty in April. This means that the signing of major sponsorships with the online bookmaker will be a kind of Christmas gift for fans. Pisces tend to resolve the whole situation pretty soon, regardless of whether the outcome is positive or negative.
