August 17 – Armenian football, which has been so plagued by match-fixing that it abandoned its second tier league, has announced a new sponsorship deal with online bookmaker brand VBET, owned by BetConstruct.
Under the agreement with the Football Federation of Armenia (FFA), the leagues will be rebranded as the VBET Armenia Premier League and VBET Armenian Cup respectively.
The three-year deal is the largest sponsorship on Armenian football history.
In July football authorities in Armenia suspended their entire second tier and handed out 45 lifetime bans after one of the biggest match-fixing episodes of recent years in Europe.
