Football clubs could be banned from using gamblings logos on their shirts as part of a massive shake-up of sports advertising, reports claim.
The Government are weighing up a blanket ban on betting firm kit sponsorships, according to the Times, a move that would hit Premier League and Championship clubs the hardest. Teams from the top two divisions rake in around £110million a year from shirt deals with gambling companies.
Currently, eight top flight teams out of 20 have their shirt sponsored by betting firms - Burnley, Crystal Palace, Fulham, Leeds, Newcastle, Southampton, West Ham and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
