This decree aims to combat gambling addiction, especially among young people. Mikel Arana, CEO of the Government of Spain, has pointed out that the presence of soccer players in the ads related to the game or the fact of holding the name of these companies in t-shirts is not a positive message, "about what a league should be".

Therefore, in the case of Osasuna, the presence of the company Olybet will not be very visible, in addition to what it can have in the online platforms. The same applies to the club’s agreements with a betting house in China and the Philippines. At the last meeting the management informed of these agreements.

In his English note, Osasuna pointed out that the agreement will make its name known in Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania, "where football popularity grows".
