Three time European champions, FC Internazionale has announced a sponsorship agreement with online betting company, Bwin.

The partnership which has been agreed until 2020, means bwin is the club’s first ever official betting partner. The Italian club will utilise bwin’s services to provide fresh and international content, introducing pitch side led screens that will advertise in-play odds during the Nerazzurri’s matches.

The services were first enjoyed by Inter fans during the club’s convincing 3-0 victory against Fiorentina at the San Siro on the opening day of the Italian season.

Bwin’s presence will also be felt on Inter’s social media channels and within the club’s digital sphere, as a digital content strategy will provide odds content to enhance sporting information.
