Parimatch will continue to offer Leeds fans exclusive opportunities throughout the season, including the chance to win signed memorabilia, unforgettable matchday experiences and the chance to meet Leeds legends.

Adam Davenport, Head of Parimatch UK, said: “For us, it’s never just about a logo on a shirt – it’s about giving Leeds fans memories they’ll talk about for years. We want to be right there in the thick of it, celebrating the big wins, feeling every kick on those tense nights under the Elland Road lights, and sharing in the roar when the ball hits the back of the net. This partnership is about passion, pride and unforgettable fan experiences – from giving away tickets to the biggest matches, to putting signed shirts straight into the hands of supporters, to creating moments with Leeds legends that money simply can’t buy. We know how much this club means to the city and we’re here to make this season one to remember on and off the pitch for every Leeds United fan.”
