- Drake bets big on Arsenal & Barcelona
- Barca to celebrate massive Spotify milestone
- Will get OVO Owl shirts for Clasico
WHAT HAPPENED? The music sensation has bet CA$833,333.85 (£537,000/$600,000) on Barcelona winning the Clasico against Real Madrid and Arsenal beating Leeds United. If both the results go his way he is set to make over £2.5 million!
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Barcelona, who are sponsored by Spotify, will take the field on Sunday wearing a special shirt bearing an owl logo used by Drake’s record label, OVO. Barca will also be sporting special training tops during their warm-ups that feature the number 50 on the back. This is to mark Drake becoming the first artist to rack up over 50 billion streams on Spotify.
WHAT NEXT FOR BARCELONA? La Blaugrana are locked together with Madrid at the top of La Liga on 22 points apiece, making their meeting at Santiago Bernabeu a vital game for both teams.
