FUN88 has become Newcastle United’s official Asian betting partner in a multi-year deal from the 2023/2024 season onwards. FUN88, one of Asia’s leading betting and gaming sites, has built strong ties with Newcastle United and its supporters since becoming the club’s principal sponsor at the beginning of the 2017/18 campaign, with the brand’s logo featured on the front of the Magpies’ kits and training wear for a total of six seasons.
The partnership will continue to support with the club’s commercial growth in Asia through FUN88, offering in-market initiatives, official club merchandise and VIP experiences for supporters. The club thanks FUN88 for its support over the past six campaigns and looks forward to working together over coming seasons.
The confirmation of the end of FUN88’s shirt sponsorship deal – from now on FUN88 will be NUFC’s official Asian betting partner – means that the Magpies will be looking a new main sponsor after six seasons. According to various reports Newcastle’s success in the Premier League and their qualification in next season’s Champions League, led the club to negotiate an early exit from the £6.5million-per-season deal in order to pursue more lucrative commercial opportunities.
