Thiago Silva becomes Superbet's new brand ambassador

The return of Thiago Silva was the main signing in Brazilian football in the mid-year transfer window to date. Taking advantage of the strength of the Fluminense fans, ‘Tricolor's’ main sponsor, Superbet, informed that the defender becomes its new ambassador. The announcement comes just under a week after the biggest party ever held in Brazil to present a player: more than 50 thousand people attended Maracanã.

“Returning to Brazil is going much better than I expected. The celebration with the Fluminense fans was bigger than any dream. And Superbet joined Flu to make an even stronger team, capable of competing for all titles. Superbet is very well-known in Europe and has arrived heavily in Brazil. I came to be part of this journey and I am happy to say that now I am Super too!,” said Thiago Silva, who will star in the company’s TV and social media campaigns.

Alexandre Fonseca, CEO of Superbet Brasil, emphasizes that choosing Thiago Silva as an ambassador reinforces the brand's strong presence in football, as the company is also the main sponsor of Fluminense, and brings one of its greatest idols closer to the fans.

“Thiago Silva represents grit, consistency, and respect for the sport, attributes aligned with the brand's purpose, which believes in a lasting partnership to strengthen our communication actions,” said the executive. “He is a super idol who returns to the country, and we are happy to be part of this story,” he concluded.

Thiago Silva is back in Brazilian football and was recently announced as the new reinforcement for Fluminense. Trained at Xerém, in the club's youth academy, the athlete left the club that revealed him in 2008 to play for Milan in Italy, where he won the Scudetto and the Super Cup. At PSG, he accumulated national titles until winning the Champions League and the World Cup with Chelsea.
