About Crefisa being the master sponsor of Palmeiras, the president reinforced: “I am the president of Palmeiras and also of the sponsors. We have been sponsoring the club since 2015, and he was signed to Palmeiras football. We didn’t separate if it was base, female. It was for Palmeiras football. When I was a candidate, I was asked about the conflict of interest, that I could not be president and sponsor of the club. There is no such conflict of interest, according to the CBF code of ethics, I can be president and sponsor. There is no such conflict of interest, it’s just that they don’t have anything to say”, he assured.
“If I weren’t president of Palmeiras, a sponsor would never give up spaces to benefit the club. I gave up these properties for Palmeiras to have more revenue, I didn’t reduce the amount I pay Palmeiras at all”, added Leila Pereira about the other sponsorships.
Recently, the president gave up Crefisa’s space as the master sponsor of women’s football, opening space for Betfair, the bookmaker that closed with Verdão this year, and for Cimed, which will join the account from now on.
