Epic Games will sponsor Santos Football Club

Brazil's most iconic Santos Football Club has sponsored Epic Games for the Copa Libertadores final game. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.

The deal will enable Santos Football Club to display the Fortnite brand on their jersey during the Copa Libertadores Final. The meeting will take place on January 30 against Palmeiras at the Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

This is the most important game of the season for both Santos and Palmeiras, as the winner qualifies for the FIFA Club World Cup in Qatar, which German club Bayern Munich have already qualified for after winning the Champions League.

The deal was closed with the support of marketing agency Druid, which supports Epic Games' communications and business in Brazil.

While the deal is only valid for one game, this isn't Santos's only visit to the esports world. The club has founded its own esports organization, represented in disciplines such as League of Legends, Free Fire, PUBG Mobile, Rainbow Six Siege, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer.
