We are aware of the responsibility that we acquire with our presence on the front of a shirt like River's and for this reason we will put all our efforts into continuing to grow together and achieve our goals. At Codere, we are convinced that this will continue to be an even more fruitful alliance and that we have made a winning bet by joining our paths”.

It is a source of pride that such a prestigious international brand continues to trust in River and that it chooses to enlarge the agreement and be our 'Main Sponsor'. We are very happy with this new opportunity that has been generated, so that River and Codere can strengthen each other”.
