With the agreement signed in June 2023, in celebration of the 13th anniversary of the betting platform, a new era for business is dawning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SunBet<\/strong> CEO <strong>Simon Gregory<\/strong> said: \u00abWe are absolutely delighted to have Michael on board as a brand ambassador to provide and share his deep insights of the game of football with SunBet customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abAnyone who loves the English Premier League and football in general will appreciate his deep knowledge of the game, coupled with his articulate and insightful commentary and analysis which have made him one of the most sought-after football media personalities in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abAs a former player at the highest level, he knows exactly what goes through the minds of players and managers at key points in a match and during the course of an arduous season and brings this to bear in his commentary and analysis.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael Owen, winner of the 2001 Ballon d&#8217;Or, as part of his duties as a SunBet spokesperson, will provide results predictions, expert advice and insights, weekly football betting odds, and signed memorabilia. In addition, Owen, who is also an experienced racehorse owner and trainer, will periodically share exciting insights into the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abI have come to know South Africa very well over the years in my various roles as a football analyst and I know the deep and incredible passion there is for football in this country. From the PSL, to the Premier League and I cannot wait to share my knowledge and passion with SunBet fans. I am thrilled to be joining one of South Africa\u2019s leading brands and one which shares my passion and enthusiasm for football, horse racing and other pursuits,\u00bb said Owen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1997, at just 17 years old, Michael Owen burst onto the scene by joining English giants Liverpool. Becoming the club&#8217;s youngest player and goalscorer in history, Owen began a journey that took him through hardline rivals Manchester United and Newcastle United, as well as Spanish heavyweight Real Madrid. During his football career, he scored over 220 goals in nearly 500 club appearances. No less impressive were his achievements on the international stage: Owen scored 40 goals in 89 matches for the England national team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 13 short years, SunBet has evolved from a platform that starts with the basic rules of football, rugby, cricket, golf and major horse racing competitions to a much more diverse platform that includes world championships and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SunBet has continued its development and now offers fixed odds bets on the outcomes of slot machines and table games such as roulette, blackjack and baccarat. SunBet paid out over R1 billion in 2022, reflecting the impressive growth in online entertainment.<br>Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3BHW1zr\">Telegram channel<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Owen, who was previously the star of the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United and the England national team, has taken a stunning turn in his career by taking on the role of brand ambassador for SunBet, an online betting platform owned by Sun International.
