The crypto casino and sportsbook noted that the agreement reinforces the sponsorship platform for national teams, adding a new category and territory to expand the reach of the AFA brand in different South American countries.

“Duelbits is delighted to be an online regional betting sponsor of the Argentine Football Association,” said Duelbits SportsBook Head Ross Haffie.

“This is a landmark deal for us, and we are very excited to work closely with the team over the next 12 months. Also, this is a great year for Argentina, and we want to wish them the best of luck in Qatar.”

AFA President Claudio Tapia commented: “In all these years of management, we have developed a strong expansion of the AFA brand, obtaining a global reach. 

“Thanks to this work, we can build agreements with important brands that today find in AFA a strategic partner for their marketing plans, not only in Argentina but in the rest of the continent and the world. We welcome Duelbits to our National Team sponsorship program and wish them every success.”

AFA Commercial Marketing Director Leandro Petersen commented: “Today we are pleased to announce this commercial agreement with Duelbits, becoming the first national team to work alongside them. 

“The process of global expansion that we started four years ago grows day by day, increasing the volume of income of our Association and expanding our horizons and our commercial frontiers.”

Last month, Duelbits agreed a partnership with Premier League football club Aston Villa, with the company becoming the club’s official European betting partner.
