Ladbrokes sees off rivals for Rangers extension

Bookmaker Ladbrokes has signed a two-year extension to its partnership with Scottish Premiership football club Rangers.

Ladbrokes will continue to serve as the Glasgow-based club’s retail betting partner for the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons.

Under the agreement, Ladbrokes will provide all betting services at Rangers’ Ibrox Stadium.

Rangers said that it had a number of other options for prospective betting partners, but stated that Ladbrokes was the preferred brand.
