Betsson to Sponsor Racing Club de Avellaneda

Gaming operator Betsson announced this week that it has signed a sponsorship agreement with Racing Club de Avellaneda and will have its logo appearing on the football club's kits for the 2023-2024 season.

The agreement is effective today and will see Betsson's logo showing up on the kits of the club's men's and women's teams. The logo will appear on matches in the Argentinian team's league, as well as in international play. Betsson has been working on expanding in Latin America and South America, having recently launched operations in Mexico.

News of the sponsorship comes days after Betsson was fined €2.4 million in Finland for allegedly marketing to players in the country. Without a doubt, it seems that the company is looking to new markets to spread its brand.

"We are excited to start this journey with one of the most popular teams in Argentina," said Betsson Group CEO Jesper Svensson. "The club's history, its loyal fanbase, and the enormous potential of its squad made them the perfect team for us to support."

Racomg Club de Avellaneda president Victor Blanco added: "Once again, we confirm the relevance of Racing Club as a brand. It fills us with pride to be selected by a prestigious company like Betsson has chosen us as a platform to further enhance their brand promotion.

"Racing Club ensures extensive reach and visibility for some of the most influential brands in Latin America. Furthermore, being the first football club in Argentina to secure a sponsorship from Betsson holds strategic importance for us."
