Santa Cruz announced the creation of the Santa Cruz Academy in partnership with Licenci, focusing on expanding the coral brand in Pernambuco and the main urban centers of the Northeast, as well as developing new talents. The club stated that Licenci was involved in football school projects linked to Atlético-MG, Botafogo, Vitória, and Pelé Academy, and that its network included more than 20,000 active students. To expand the initiative, Santa Cruz said it would seek entrepreneurs and local partners to manage academy units in their cities. #SantaCruz #Academia #Futebol (translated)
