Newly promoted English Premier League soccer side Leicester City has unveiled online gaming platform and cryptocurrency casino BC.Game as its new principal partner in a wide-ranging multi-year deal that the club calls one of the “most valuable” in its history.

As principal partner, BC.Game becomes the Leicester men’s side’s new front-of-shirt sponsor on all home, away, and third kits for at least the next two seasons.

Speaking on the partnership, Leicester chief executive Susan Whelan stated: “The ability to attract high-value partners upon our return to the Premier League is vital to our determination to re-establish Leicester City among the game’s elite, to continue to invest in a competitive squad and to ensure the best possible experience for our supporters.”

BC.Game replaces King Power, the Asian duty-free shopping giant which had returned as Leicester's shirt sponsor last season. 

King Power, owned by the club’s Thai ownership, will remain heavily associated with the team, retaining training kit front-of-shirt branding rights and continuing as the naming rights sponsor of the club’s stadium.
