Former footballer Dimitar Berbatov has renewed his partnership with JBO (Just Bet Online) brand, Asian sports betting and eSports operator. He will continue to act as a brand ambassador.
Berbatov will continue to star in a series of promotions and activations for one of Asia’s most reputable sportsbook. Regarded as the greatest Bulgarian footballer of all time, Berbatov’s appeal and on-field record has blended perfectly with JBO’s brand values in recent years.
Indeed, having played for Europe’s greatest football teams – including Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Bayer Leverkusen, Fulham and Monaco – Berbatov has formed a powerful bond with football fans across the world. JBO already has a rich offer in football and international sports, with a robust portfolio of sponsorships.
Having successfully worked with Bologna FC in the Italian Championship and secured title sponsorship of the Dota 2 eSports property for the JBO Asian Masters League event, JBO is also the official regional partner of Olympique de Marseille in France. The brand has also previously partnered with VICI Gaming, Keen Gaming, Killer Angel, 5POWER Gaming, and 496 Gaming.
The Berbatov deal extension further highlights JBO’s progressive and ambitious expansion over the years, growing its global presence in emerging markets, strengthened by the operator’s aim to engage, educate and entertain.

“Of course, there will also be the chance for our customers to get more exclusive analysis and match previews from one of the brightest minds in football.

“We are invariably looking for new creative ways to interact with our customers across digital channels and betting verticals as varied as sports betting, esports and casino.

“JBO pioneered a truly unified and gamified betting experience. Our players remain incredibly loyal and proud of the brand values, which resonate with them through fair play and creativity, helping to foster a responsible recreational community.”
