The Brazilian FA, the CBF, and Japanese video games maker Konami have struck a two-year partnership deal for the Pro Evolution Soccer video game. 
In September Konami will launch Pro Evolution Soccer 2017. As well as the CBF, Konami also holds exclusive image rights to leading Brazilian clubs Flamengo and Corinthians.
Konami produces and distributes trading cards, animation, tokusatsu, slot machines and arcade cabinets, as well as being a video game developer and publisher.
The Brazilian FA is looking towards the future, when it envisages a ‘virtual’ Brazilian championship – the idea of different gamers taking on each other, akin to FIFA’s virtual championship but with gamers representing clubs. The CBF wants every club to have a representative in the championship and to launch the competition next year. The calendar would align with the real national championship, the Brasileirão.
“Yes, it is among the possibilities,” said CBF secretary general Walter Feldman. “It may be realised soon. We are still studying the different platforms. We are looking for sponsors. Even live-broadcasting on TV is possible.”
The partnership was signed by the president of the CBF Marco Polo Del Nero who made the announcement. Del Nero is under pressure following multiple investigations into his leadership at the CBF.
