Eight current Premier League clubs have gambling companies as their front-of-shirt sponsor and will still be allowed them until the start of the 2025-26 season.
Premier League clubs have collectively agreed to withdraw gambling sponsorship from the front of matchday shirts, but it will only come into effect at the end of the 2025-26 season.
“The Premier League is also working with other sports on the development of a new code for responsible gambling sponsorship. James Grimes, Founder of The Big Step campaign to kick gambling advertising out of football, said: “Today’s announcement is a significant acceptance of the harm caused by gambling sponsorship. No gambling ads are seen more than those on Premier League shirts, worn by billions around the world.
