Premier League set to ban betting firms from sponsoring football shirts

The United Kingdom and the Premier League are set to ban betting firms from sponsoring fronts of football shirts, according to the Daily Mail.

The recent government review of the country's controversial gambling laws has resulted in a set of changes that will be published in the upcoming months.

'A wider ban' on betting advertising in sport is reportedly in consideration as well but for now, betting firms could be forbidden from advertising on fronts of shirts.

Nine Premier League clubs have gambling companies as main shirt sponsors: Brentford, Burnley, Crystal Palace, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton, Watford, West Ham and Wolves.
