On April 2, 2026, American ridesharing and delivery company Uber reached an agreement with Uberlândia to purchase the club's naming rights. With this, the Brazilian team will now be called UberLÂNDIA, in a move that plays on the similarity between the brand name and the city, and reinforces the company's presence in football.^[2]
