Hoboken, New Jersey–(Newsfile Corp. – March 2, 2022) – Esports Entertainment Group, Inc.

"The proceeds from this important offering allow us to build our working capital reserves and enable the Company to repay a portion of its outstanding debt," said Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group. "Collectively, this will provide our Company with a far firmer foundation which will allow us to take advantage of the growth potential provided by our newest esports products as well as our European-based iGaming and online sports betting businesses. In particular, we remain extremely bullish about the growing interest in our OMEGA solution and believe the debut of our LANDuel platform later this month will have a material impact on our financial performance in the coming quarters."
