Fulham Football Club has welcomed global betting brand Dafabet as its new Main Team Partner, in a two-year record shirt sponsorship deal for the club.

The Main Team Partner announcement coincides with the launch of the club’s new 18/19 adidas Home and Away Kits which will carry the Dafabet logo displayed on the front of the playing shirts worn by the First Team for the 2018/19 Premier League campaign and the Fulham FC Women’s team.   

The Home Kit will be worn for the first time this Saturday (14 July) when Slaviša Jokanović’s side plays Reading in a pre-season friendly at Aldershot Town.

The heritage of London’s original football club is weaved further into the kit with a subtle neck sign-off of the club’s founding year, whilst modern features remain at the heart of the kit, with adidas’ climalite technology.

As well as presence on the front of playing shirts from 2018/19, Dafabet branding will be visible around Craven Cottage on matchdays and across the club’s social media and digital channels. There will also be significant engagement opportunities for Dafabet to reach the club’s domestic and international fan base.

Casper Stylsvig, Chief Revenue Officer of Fulham FC, said: “I am delighted that the club has been able to benefit from the team’s tremendous success of last season’s promotion to the Premier League by securing a record shirt sponsorship deal.

“We look forward to enjoying our return to the top flight with Dafabet and working with them to continue to grow the club’s brand globally.”

Dimitris Karatzas, Chief Executive Officer at Dafabet, said: “We are delighted to continue our long-lasting presence in the Premier League by partnering with a club full of heritage and tradition.  

While the relationship is in the early stages, our initial discussions with the club’s officials have given me every confidence that we share the same passion for football, we’re looking forward to a fruitful and successful partnership.”
