Betsson, a leading name in global sports betting, has significantly strengthened its commitment to Greek football by becoming the Official Sponsor of Iraklis FC.
This strategic partnership follows the demonstrated success of the Betsson Greek Cup and the ongoing sponsorship of OFI Crete, cementing Betsson’s growing investment in the country’s most celebrated sports institutions.
Iraklis FC, known affectionately as the “Elder,” boasts a rich history spanning over a century and stands as a true emblem of sportsmanship, passion, and enduring tradition within Greek football.
The club has left a remarkable legacy on the domestic football scene, consistently embodying the core values of integrity, fighting spirit, and perseverance that have inspired generations of loyal supporters.
Commencing with the upcoming 2025–26 season, the Betsson logo will be prominently displayed on the back of the Iraklis official team jersey. This visual alliance signifies a collaboration founded on shared principles of excellence, fair play, and dedication to the highest standards of competition.
The sponsorship arrives at a crucial juncture for Iraklis. The team is currently focused on achieving promotion from the Super League 2, with the ultimate goal of reclaiming its well-deserved position in Greece’s top-tier football division.
With the robust backing and resources provided by Betsson, the club is set to embark on a new era defined by renewed confidence, ambition, and a resolute pursuit of both on-pitch victories and long-term institutional success.
This move underscores Betsson’s dedication not merely to branding but to actively supporting the growth and competitive resurgence of teams that hold deep cultural significance for Greek fans.
The partnership is a clear statement of intent, aligning Betsson with a beloved, traditional club as it seeks to achieve its pivotal developmental goals. Both organizations anticipate that this alliance will yield meaningful contributions to the team’s immediate journey and the broader ambitions of the historic club.
Thanos Marinos, Managing Director of Betsson Greece:
We are truly delighted to become the Official Sponsor of this historic club. With more than a hundred years of history, the team embodies values that perfectly align with our own philosophy—passion, integrity, and love for football. Through this partnership, we aim to stand by Iraklis in its effort to return to where it belongs: the top division. We believe our support can make a meaningful contribution to the team’s journey and the club’s long-term ambitions.
