One of the country’s main narrators, Cléber Machado, may change stations again. The SBT narrator received an offer from Record to act in the broadcasts of the Brazilian Club Championship of the Forte União League and the Paulista Championship in 2025. In the case of the regional one, the agreement was renewed until 2029.
The professional confirms receipt of the proposal, but denies having reached an agreement with the channel.
Even without a final decision, Cléber claims that negotiations are ongoing and claims to have informed SBT, his current broadcaster, about the competitor’s interest.
“I received a proposal and immediately communicated it to SBT. Nothing has been signed yet. And all the parties involved are aware of the entire process, of the entire negotiation,” said Cléber Machado in an official statement issued by the SBT.
Since leaving Grupo Globo, where he worked for more than three decades, the narrator quickly adapted and faced new challenges, being SBT’s presenter and main narrator for competitions such as the Champions League, Copa Sudamericana and Libertadores.
