JACK’S BACK: WILSHERE TEAMS UP WITH PADDY POWER TO PRODUCE ‘PLEA VIDEO’ FOR CLUBS TO SIGN HIM
Fit, ready and available for offers…but not from Tottenham
Out-of-work Jack Wilshere is hoping to attract the attention of potential new clubs by seeking the help of ‘marketing gurus’ in Paddy Power’s latest video.
The spoof clip sees two marketing execs kick-off their meeting by presenting their “Retirement plans for Jack Wilshere” – but just six months after leaving Bournemouth, the former Arsenal star reminds them that he hasn’t yet hung up his boots.
So, the duo are forced to skip past their suggested next steps for him, including I’m A Celebrity or creating his own NFT.
Instead, Wilshere is presented with a ‘digital strategy’ for getting him back in the game – because if strapping a GoPro to his head “every time he takes a pre-game dump” keeps 38-year-old Ben Foster relevant, it’ll work for him too.
Despite his protestations, the former England international has a go at some of the tasks set, including how to write the perfect apology message à la Bruno Fernandes. Wilshere shares his attempt at a real-world example: “Sorry I forgot to take the bins out this week. Wasn’t good enough, and not what the house deserves.”
Not forgetting that all important line, “We go again next week.”
Viewers are then taken on a journey of the creation of Wilshere’s digital dossier, which includes doing loads of keepie-uppies and eating a sandwich to symbolise his “hunger” to return to football.
But after the midfielder declares his frustration with the process, he decides to keep things simple. Turning to the camera, Wilshere speaks directly to clubs as he says: “Jack Wilshere. Fit, ready and available for offers.”
Just not from Tottenham.
Spokesman Paddy Power said: “Jack Wilshere hasn’t actually retired from football yet – who knew?! He’s still a top professional though, so we wanted to do our bit to help him get back in the game.
“But, being pretty good at football just won’t cut it anymore – you have to excel in other areas, such as having millions of Instagram followers, or filming yourself eating breakfast for your TikTok channel.
“Thankfully, Jack understood the need to improve his digital profile and really threw himself into the process. In fact, I’d go as far to say that his acting display was an even better performance than that night against Barcelona.”

Less than a month after obtaining a key sportsbook certificate for Brazil, global B2B supplier Delasport is cementing its presence in regulated LatAm with a key Vibra Solutions deal.
The partnership is centered around Delasport’s multi-award-winning sportsbook solution in its Plug & Play iFrame form.
Vibra Solutions is an Latam-based B2B platform provider with clients in all key countries of the region. This deal will boost Delasport’s expansion in the region, giving them access to thriving regulated markets such as Brazil and Argentina, among others.
Delasport’s iFrame solution is now established as an operator favorite due to its unique features that sport bettors love to engage with. It offers everything the full sportsbook provides, including unrivaled personalization, new ways to bet, and more.
“We are very pleased to be partnering up with Vibra Solutions as part of our LatAm expansion”, Delasport’s Senior Business Director Unai Concha comments. “Vibra Solutions and its professional team is a well-known company in LatAm and we had no doubt they are the right ally for Delasport in this region.”
“Having the opportunity to offer our customers Delasport’s modern Sportsbook is a great addition to our portfolio, and the first of many new products Vibra will add to its sports betting offering”, Vibra Solutions’ Commercial Director Federico Saini says. “Sports are essential for Latin America and while we have our own sportsbook, we recognize that each operator has unique needs. That’s why we prioritize offering the best-fit solution. Delasport cutting-edge product is perfectly aligned with this strategy.”

Amusnet announces the exclusive launch of 20 Wild Goals at Betano in Romania from February 20th to March 24th, 2025. This collaboration further strengthens the company’s long-term partnership with the operator and reflects Amusnet’s focus on providing localized gaming solutions to meet the needs of the Romanian market.
“With a clear focus on delivering localized, high-quality content, we continue to foster our mutually beneficial collaboration with Betano. By providing tailored gaming experiences, we ensure both Amusnet and our partners drive growth, meet player expectations, and strengthen our collective presence in the region,” said Andreea Popa, Commercial Manager at Amusnet Romania.
20 Wild Goals is a 5-reel video slot set in a stadium environment, offering 20 paylines. The Wild symbol, represented by a ball, expands to cover the entire reel, boosting the potential for higher wins. The tumbling reel feature adds a layer of excitement by removing winning combinations and increasing multipliers with each subsequent spin. The game presents a dynamic and engaging experience designed to appeal to players seeking thrilling gameplay.
Features
Expanding Wild
During the base game, the Wild symbol expands on the whole reel and substitutes for other symbols, increasing the winning potential.
Tumbling Reels with Increasing Multiplier
Winning symbols disappear, making way for the symbols above them while increasing the multiplier with each consecutive win. If new winning combinations appear on the screen after filling the empty positions, they are multiplied by Multiplier, which starts from x2 and increases by 1 with every consequent Tumbling Reels Feature.
Jackpot Cards
The four-level mystery jackpot bonus game Jackpot Cards is also available, just like in the rest of Amusnet’s Online Casino portfolio.
