On June 3, 2026, Law No. 15,427 (“Law 15,427<\/u>“) was enacted and published in Brazil’s Official Gazette on June 8, 2026. The law amends Law No. 14,193\/2021 (“SAF Law<\/u>“), the legal framework for Football Corporations (Sociedades An\u00f4nimas do Futebol <\/em>or \u201cSAF<\/u>\u201d). The amendments seek to improve governance rules, strengthen investor protection, preserve clubs’ rights, and provide clearer discipline for the treatment of historical liabilities. For domestic and foreign investors, investment funds, creditors, and clubs operating or considering operating under the SAF model, the new law introduces immediate implications for corporate structures, transparency obligations, and debt settlement mechanisms.<\/p>\n
