About Atletico Mineiro

Atletico Mineiro are one of Brazil's most passionate football clubs, a Belo Horizonte institution whose 2013 Copa Libertadores triumph was the most celebrated moment in the club's history and delivered long-overdue continental recognition to the Minas Gerais giant. Multiple Brazilian championship titles and a move to the new Arena MRV have given Atletico a home and a trophy cabinet worthy of their enormous fanbase. The black and white stripes of Galo are iconic across Brazilian football. Founded in 1908, Atletico Mineiro play at the Arena MRV in Belo Horizonte and compete in the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie A. Key honours include the 2013 Copa Libertadores and the 2021 Brazilian championship. Known as Galo (The Rooster), the club is one of Brazil's most passionate and widely followed football institutions with a fanbase that rivals any in the country. Black and white vertical stripes are Atletico Mineiro's identity and they have been worn through decades of glory and near-misses before the 2013 continental triumph. The Copa Libertadores winning shirt from 2013, worn as Atletico finally claimed the prize their fans had dreamed of for generations, is the most significant piece in the modern wardrobe. The rooster crest on the chest gives the strip real visual power, and recent designs from Le Coq Sportif have produced some bold interpretations of the classic black and white.
