CÁ CƯỢC THỂ THAO
Brazil – Liên đoàn bóng đá Brazil muốn có nhiều hơn từ dự luật cá cược thể thao

Liên đoàn bóng đá Brazil (Confederação Brasileira de Futebol; CBF) filed a request with the Ministry of Finance to modify sports betting regulations so that football clubs would receive a higher percentage of revenue from sports betting.
Trong đề xuất của mình, CBF cũng đề xuất chính phủ coi việc chuyển tiền tài chính từ ngành này sang các câu lạc bộ không phải là tiền công mà là khoản thù lao cho việc sử dụng tên câu lạc bộ và thương hiệu vô địch. Do đó, các câu lạc bộ và các đơn vị thể thao khác sẽ ít chịu sự giám sát của chính phủ hơn.
The CBF also stated that it wanted the creation of a registry of sports betting operators, the control of which will come under the supervision of the confederation itself. The registry would serve to supervise the assignment of commercial rights, control transfers of money from sports betting operators to clubs and create mechanisms to combat match fixing.
The CBF’s demands were relayed to the Ministry of Finance by its general secretary, Alcino Rocha. As the reception of these proposals “were not well received”, the confederation said that it would aim to arrange a meeting with Tổng thống Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva và Minister of Finance Fernando Haddad.
When consulted by Brazilian news outlet Globo, the CBF indicated that “the document in question, sent at the request of the Ministry of Finance, is still preliminary” and that “it is a complex and unprecedented issue” that “will be submitted for the consideration of all parties involved.”
They also noted that “all the clubs present were informed that the document presented was not a definitive text, but only a starting point.”
The president of the CBF, Ednaldo Rodrigues, said that his administration was “open and democratic dialogue will always be respected”, and that “only after a broad debate, the agenda of a provisional measure will be sent to the Federal Government. “
“Our commitment is to listen and give a voice to everyone. It is undeniable that betting revenue is another source of revenue for clubs. But it is necessary to understand, discuss and reach a consensus,” Rodrigues said.
Law 13,756/18, which legalized sports betting in Brazil in 2018, ruled that teams that allowed bets to be placed on their sporting events would be entitled to 1.63 per cent of net income. The CBF wants this percentage to be increased to 4 per cent and that the amount be deducted from gross income which would means significantly more cash for clubs.
