VALETTA, Malta and SARAJEVO, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sept. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Meridianbet Group, known not only for delivering world-class entertainment but also for its profound commitment to social responsibility and community engagement, has taken a significant step in reinforcing its support for sports, particularly in Southeast Europe.
Today, Meridian proudly announced its sponsorship of FK Sarajevo, a football club with a storied history and a prospective future. Founded in 1946, their illustrious achievements include being crowned champions of former Yugoslavia twice, securing the title of Bosnia and Herzegovina champions five times, winning the Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup seven times, and clinching the Bosnia and Herzegovina Super Cup once.
