The company is very excited about the new contract between the Uruguayan striker and Boca Juniors. Jesper Svensson, CEO of Betsson, accompanied Cavani's presentation and expressed his excitement. "We are incredibly proud of our sponsorship with Boca Juniors and to be able to support the club. The match could not have gone better - the women's team was crowned Division One champions, and now, with international superstar Cavani joining the men's team, we couldn't be more thrilled. His exceptional talent will undoubtedly enhance the club's already illustrious history," he said.
Betsson recently signed as sponsor of SSC Napoli, the club where Cavani became a legend (between 2010-2013). The connection between the striker and Maradona, now also with the number 10 jersey, is truly remarkable, not to mention the use of the beautiful colors of both Boca and Sweden's flag, adding to the excitement of this partnership.
Since the bookmaker announced its strategic alliance with Boca Juniors, the ‘Xeneize’ has played a total of eight matches, winning seven (against Monagas, Sarmiento, Huracán, Gimnasia, Barracas Central, Newells and Independiente) and drawing one (Union).
During those games, it scored 16 goals and conceded just 3 in the three competitions they played in this period. In addition, the women's team was crowned champions of the first division football tournament on its debut with the Betsson logo on the chest.
Boca Juniors presented Cavani last Monday, July 31st, at La Bombonera stadium, in front of a crowd of fans who had come to see the former Valencia striker and find out what number he would wear: the Uruguayan won the iconic number 10 jersey, the same one that was used by the legendary Juan Roman Riquelme and Diego Armando Maradona.
"We talk about you so much that it seems like an optical illusion," said Boca Juniors president Jorge Amor Ameal during the press conference, speaking directly to Cavani. "But today you are a reality, a total happiness. I am very excited that you are with us," he concluded.
"I'm happy with the decision I made to come here. Wearing the Boca jersey is a big responsibility. This opportunity made me want to come and give the best I have here in the last years of my career," explained the player to reporters.
