The Minas Gerais state government has announced multi-million-real financial support for Clube Atlético Mineiro, Cruzeiro and other football clubs in the state. The aid comes after a ban on betting companies, whose sponsorships had become a major source of club revenue. Brazilian sports media, including ESPN Brasil, are covering the decision, which is drawing attention amid the broader disruption to club finances caused by the betting sponsorship prohibition.
