It's getting pretty porno in Bella Italia!
The porn video portal Pornhub will provide an Italian sports club for financial highlight and jersey sponsor. Whether football, volleyball or basketball - no matter! Only Italy it should be.
Pornhub-Vice Corey Price: "We encourage all eligible teams to submit their application. We can expect to work with the winner hardly. The only condition: No team member may be under 18".
This could be a great innovation for the Italian football league because the advertisement is likely to be worthwhile for all parties. For the publicity Pornhub will bear all the expenses, which the club makes. In football, this could mean many millions of euros. But is this ethically right? Many football lovers are under 18, this could mean that the team who gets sponsored from Pornhub might not get full TV rights, since the TV channels are afraid that underaged people are looking TV. This might influence the advertisement. But we don't know if this will happen, because there are no recent advertisements of a porn-industry in the football, so it can go either way. And if there is no background information, the change for both businesses might be extreme, since both might benefit, but also both might fail.
But why should an italian football team and pornhub make an agreement on sponsoring. While the strategy of pornhub is to competite with other porn-sites, the football team tries to make money out of it. I think that they would not care so much about their image then because in football nowadays, money plays a big role.
