Premier League clubs face losing lucrative sponsors if unlicensed gambling firms banned
Sports2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported58m ago
Premier League clubs face the potential loss of tens of millions of pounds in sponsorship revenue as the UK government develops plans that could ban unlicensed gambling firms next year. Currently, half of the league's 20 clubs maintain advertising or sponsorship agreements with such companies, which may become illegal under the proposed measures.
Simultaneously, Liverpool FC announced a major commercial shift, securing Turkish Airlines as their new front-of-shirt sponsor beginning in the 2027/28 season. While official financial terms were not disclosed by the club, media reports indicate the five-year agreement is valued at £300 million.
