Jay-Roc Z's Nation Sports, which was established in 2013 has now launched an operation in Brazil.

“I strongly identify with a culture that has such an incredible passion for sport and music. Our influence in this game is growing and this move shows our intentions to the world.”

Soon after meeting Jay-Z in May, the two posed for a picture which the Brazilian forward posted on his Instagram, Vinicius joined Roc Nation.
