2014 FIFA World Cup Official Mascot: His song

Brazil 2014 reaches"cruise speed" - valcke

Brazil 2014 reaches"cruise speed" - valcke
FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke has said work on 2014 World Cup stadia and infrastructure is progressing well, adding that Brazil’s preparations for the tournament have reached “cruise speed”.

Valcke was speaking on Thursday after completing visits to the host cities of Manaus and Cuiaba. His comments come after a key official behind Brazil’s massive infrastructure development for both the World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games this week acknowledged the challenges facing the country before it stages the football showpiece in less than two years’ time. Benedicto Barbosada Silva Junior, CEO of the infrastructure unit of Brazilian conglomerate Odebrecht, stated that timelines had been “accelerated”, adding: “Today, I’m more worried about the World Cup than I am about the Olympics.”
 

The English Football Association (FA) has announced Nike partnership

The English Football Association (FA) has announced a new partnership with Nike running through July 2018, ending its long relationship with Umbro.

Monday’s announcement had been widely anticipated after the American sportswear giant in May revealed its intention to sell Umbro and focus its efforts on driving growth in its own brand just four years after having acquired the football-focused British company. Nike will now design and create the kits for men and women’s England teams at every level, with the first kits due to be launched in Spring 2013.
 

Sao Paulo ends search for shirt

Sao Paulo has ended its search for a main shirt sponsor by signing a lucrative new deal with Semp Toshiba.
The Brazilian giant has signed a contract with the electronics firm which runs through to the end of 2014 and is reportedly worth R$23 million (US$11.3 million) a year to the club. Semp Toshiba made its debut on Sao Paulo shirts for its Campeonato Brasiliero clash against Internacional on Wednesday, with the deal being formally announced on Thursday.

Armadillo chosen as World Cup mascot

FIFA and the local organising committee (LOC) for the 2014 World Cup have announced that an armadillo will serve as the official mascot of Brazil’s tournament.
The three-banded armadillo, which is indigenous to Brazil, was chosen after FIFA and the LOC analysed 47 proposals created by six different Brazilian agencies. The designs were further analysed through extensive research carried out amongst its primary target audience, Brazilian children between the ages of five and 12, with the favourite being the armadillo, created by 100%Design. The Brazilian population will now have the chance to give the mascot a name by taking part in a public voting campaign which will run up until the middle of November. The three options are Amijubi – which is designed to represent friendliness and joy – and two names which link to the ecological message, Fuleco and Zuzeco.
