Everton have signed a club-record sponsorship deal with gambling company Stake.com despite reports that clubs may soon be banned from being sponsored by betting organisations.
The Toffees announced on Thursday morning that they have signed a lucrative front-of-shirt sponsorship agreement with the global betting company, which is based on the Caribbean island of Curacao. Stake.com have a number of big-name clients from the world of football and showbiz on their books.
Last season, they signed a multi-year deal to sponsor Watford ’s shirts and, earlier this year, signed clients including former Manchester City and Barcelona striker Sergio Aguero and four-time Grammy Award-winning musician Drake.
