Gambling operator MansionBet has agreed a new deal to become the official UK betting partner of English Premier League football club Newcastle United.

The deal will run for two years – covering the 2019-20 and 2020-21 seasons – with MansionBet to operate betting terminals within the team’s St. James’ Park stadium.

MansionBet will also offer special price boosts and exclusive deals for Newcastle United fans and run a series of fan-focused competitions featuring prizes such as money can’t buy experiences and match tickets.

“We are excited to add Newcastle to our growing portfolio of sponsorships to increase our reach in the UK and Ireland,” MansionBet chief executive, Karel Manasco, said. “We have plans for activities that will benefit both the club and its supporters, and believe this is the perfect partnership.”

Dale Aitchison, head of commercial at Newcastle, added: “MansionBet has a proven track record when it comes to football sponsorship and we look forward to working with the group to deliver a fantastic betting service to our fans on a matchday.”

MansionBet also currently serves as the main shirt sponsor for Premier League club AFC Bournemouth.
