Sport Club Botafogo announced that VBET, an Armenian betting platform, is its new main sponsor after an agreement was reached between the Brazilian football club and the bookmaker. As reported, VBET's sponsorship has become the largest commercial contract in the 130-year history of the team from Rio de Janeiro. 

For Thairo Arruda, Botafogo's CEO, this agreement reflects the expansion that both the company and the team are seeking into new markets and represents an important moment for the club and its fans. 

"The champion of Brazil and America is joining forces with a global company that believes in the work of the Club and its legacy. VBET arrives to join forces and brings the necessary momentum to Botafogo, which will continue its path to the pinnacle of Brazilian and world soccer," he commented.
