TOKYO, Japan – Dreamstock Inc. and Clube Atlético Mineiro, one of the premier clubs in Brazil, have agreed to start a partnership to use the DSFootball product for scouting youth players from all over the globe. Hailing from Belo Horizonte in the state of Minas Gerais, the Copa Libertadores and 3-time Brazilian champion has one of the best youth systems in Brazil, having produced players such as Bremer (Juventus), Bernard (Panathinaikos) and Jemerson (Atlético-MG, formerly Monaco). From now on, they will have access to the entire pool of players signed up for the DSFootball platform. The club will use the DSFootball team of analysts to improve their scouting depth and open new opportunities for kids who could not otherwise be seen by such a big club.
Besides creating new opportunities for male players, Atlético Mineiro will be the first team ever to open up selections for female players to join their youth system through online trials. The girls will be able to be assessed by one of the fastest growing teams in the Brazilian Women’s League in a way never seen before.

GALO, AN INCREASINGLY NATIONAL PASSION
The Rooster announces a partnership with the DSFootball platform, an application that democratizes access to the selection process for the Club’s youth teams and broadens the base for evaluating potential athletes.
The tool makes it possible to sign up during the period in which selections are open for certain ages and positions.
The initial assessment takes place by sending videos, which are then analyzed before they reach Atlético’s technical observers.
As a result, any athlete from anywhere in the world will have the opportunity to try out for a place in Galo’s youth team.
“We’re going to expand the scope for observing young athletes and give even more opportunities to those who want to join our youth team, making the selection process even more accessible,” says Victor Aurélio, Galo’s recruitment coordinator.
