Gambling website operated by Douglas company, new shirt sponsor for Premier League club?

Wednesday, 28 June 2023 07:22

A gambling website operated by a Douglas company could be the new shirt sponsor for Premier League club Chelsea.

Stake.uk.com, which is operated by TGP Europe, already appears on the shirts of Everton players.

It's now in talks to have its brand featured on the West London team's kit in a one-year deal after a deal with mobile phone company Three ran out.

But the deal has yet to be finalized, and 77 per cent of the club's fans polled by the Chelsea Supporter's Trust said they disagreed with the proposal.
