PokerStars have made some great signings over the years from the world of football, but they might have saved the best until their latest with the addition of French former Spurs and Newcastle winger David Ginola.

With French sportsbetting fans likely to be as amused with Ginola’s performance in the advert as they are pleased with the offers that are available, it’s solid sportsbetting gold when it comes to the advert, which you can watch below:

The PokerStars brand has been busy in the last few months, putting together a multimedia campaign that doesn’t just feature Ginola, but also enhancing the overall offering to French players and sportsbettors. Amaya’s purchase of The Stars Group saw some controversial moments – Victoria Coren-Mitchell’s departure was followed by an exodus of players such as Jason Mercier and Daniel Negreanu – but in recent months the smoke seems to have cleared.
