Chelsea Football Club has announced that William Hill became the club’s official betting partner after the two parties signed a three-year deal. Thanks to the agreement, the Premier League club will work in collaboration with one of the biggest and best-established betting operators in the UK gambling industry. William Hill is also one of the oldest bookmakers in the UK, having more than 80 years of professional experience in the business.

Christian Purslow, Managing Director of Chelsea, commented on the deal the two parties have signed saying that the entire team of the football club were quite satisfied with the fact they were to work alongside the UK betting operator over the next three years.

According to him, the agreement would be beneficial for Chelsea thanks to the great variety of options and exclusive offers provided by William Hill.
