Red Bull Bragantino II
Red Bull Bragantino II was a professional association football club based in Bragança Paulista, São Paulo, Brazil. The team last played in the Campeonato Paulista Série A3, the third tier of the São Paulo state football league, before requesting their leave from the competition in 2024. It operated as Red Bull Bragantino's reserve team, and played in the Campeonato Brasileiro de Aspirantes under the Red Bull Bragantino name.
Founded on 19 November 2007 as Red Bull Brasil, the club is owned by Red Bull GmbH. Due to the team's failure to reach the Série A, Red Bull instead partnered with Clube Atlético Bragantino, an existing club. They opted to withdraw from the São Paulo football league for two years in November 2024, but are widely expected to be disbanded.
