On the shirt. In the game.

Southend United’s front-of-shirt sponsor, in real life and in FIFA.

Watchlotto became Southend United’s main shirt partner in 2020. The club’s original kit-launch artwork shows the logo taking its place on the front of the home shirt.

That real-world sponsorship appeared in FIFA through Southend’s in-game kit. It was part of the game’s normal club branding, bringing Watchlotto to a new audience.
