Premier League Gambling Ban: Why Stake, Betway And Other Betting Logos Have Disappeared From Shirts | Explained
Summary
The Premier League introduced a voluntary ban on gambling logos on front-of-shirt sponsors to curb the normalization of betting, especially among young viewers. Clubs can still place gambling brands on sleeves, training kits, and stadium advertising, but the move is expected to create an estimated £80 million revenue gap as betting firms paid premium rates for chest space. New sponsors from finance, tech and airlines are stepping in, widening the commercial divide between top clubs and mid‑table teams.
