Everton CEO Robert Elstone and former Blues midfielder Leon Osman have travelled to Tanzania to find out more about SportPesa’s growing presence in the area ahead of the Club’s pre-season friendly in the East African country.
The Everton duo will witness first-hand SportPesa’s key role in contributing towards football development in East Africa, and will also take part in a press conference with local and regional media to look ahead to the Blues’ fixture at the Tanzania National Main Stadium in Dar-es-Salaam on Thursday 13 July, 5pm kick-off local time (3pm kick-off BST).
The pre-season match in Tanzania will celebrate the Club’s new main partnership with gaming giant SportPesa and will see the Toffees become the first Premier League side to play in the East African nation, taking on the winners of the inaugural SportPesa Super Cup.
