Brazilian football legend and former Real Madrid superstar Roberto Carlos has signed a three-year agreement to become brand ambassador for the expanding European gaming brand planetwin365 in Spain.
After its recent launch of online operations in the Spanish market, the Austrian-Maltese bookmaker is joining forces with the 42-year-old sports icon as it is rolling out its internationally successful gaming offer across the country. Apart from advertising rights for planetwin365, the deal with Roberto Carlos will also bring opportunities for fan involvement activities and promotional events.
In addition to Spain, Roberto Carlos’ image will also be present with the planetwin365 brand in its established markets Austria, Belgium, Italy, Serbia, Montenegro and Bosnia.
