Patrice Evra Becomes Stake’s Crypto Betting Ambassador

⭐ Patrice Evra has officially joined Stake as a global crypto betting ambassador, marking another high-profile signing for the fast-growing crypto gambling platform.

⚽ Former Manchester United, Juventus, and Monaco star Patrice Evra has signed on as a global crypto betting ambassador for Stake, the company announced this week. Evra’s storied career includes 17 titles, among them five Premier League crowns and a UEFA Champions League triumph in 2008, making him one of the most decorated defenders in modern football.

🧢 Since retiring in 2019, Evra has worked as a football pundit and remains a popular figure in the footballing world. His new role as a crypto betting ambassador aligns him with another ex-Premier League icon, Sergio Aguero, who already serves as part of Stake’s ambassador team. Evra’s appointment underscores Stake’s continued investment in big-name partnerships across the sports industry.

🥋 In addition to his footballing credentials, Evra is known to be an avid MMA fan—something he highlighted when speaking about his new role as a crypto betting ambassador. “I am so excited to be working with Stake and joining the family. I am a massive MMA fan and Stake is a brand that everyone thinks of when it comes to the sport,” he said. Stake is notably active in promoting MMA alongside football and Formula 1.

📈 The full terms of Evra’s contract as a crypto betting ambassador have not been disclosed, but the company confirmed that fans can expect more content featuring the French star on Stake’s channels in the coming months. His charismatic personality and outspoken views on football are expected to resonate strongly with Stake’s global audience.

🏆 Evra made 81 appearances for the French national team, even captaining the squad during his international career. His addition as a crypto betting ambassador comes despite Stake’s previous removal from the UK market, a consequence of controversy surrounding the promotion of OnlyFans content. The partnership with such a high-profile UK football figure marks a bold and notable move for the company.

🎤 Commenting on the announcement, Akhil Sarin, CMO of Stake, described Evra as “a footballing icon” and praised his unique personality. “Patrice is a footballing icon and one of the best players to ever play in his position. As much as his incredible credentials, we love his eccentric, larger-than-life personality and his strong opinions on the beautiful game,” Sarin said about their latest crypto betting ambassador.

🇮🇹 The signing also follows another strategic move by Stake, which recently appointed Fabio Angeli Bufalini as its Country Manager for Italy. That appointment aims to strengthen Stake’s presence in the Italian market, complementing its ongoing global expansion and its growing roster of crypto betting ambassador partnerships.
