“The Czech SAZKA has made a non-binding offer for the purchase of 51% of the National Lottery,” the company told the BNR, adding that the current owner – Vasil Bozhkov who is in Dubai - declined. The company states that they are also concerned about the regulations in the sector.
Earlier today Vasil Bozhkov once again posted on Facebook his allegations of pressure by the state on his gambling business. He also writes that in September 2019 SAZKA GROUP offered 1 billion Leva (around EUR 511 million) for 51% of the National Lottery.
SAZKA is one of the biggest lottery operators in Europe, operating in Austria, Czechia, Cyprus and Greece.
