The Canadian rapper has made a huge bet on these weekend’s standout fixtures.
Drake has bet £537,000 on Barcelona winning the Clasico against Real Madrid and Arsenal defeating Leeds United.
The hip-hop star has shared a photo of his bet slip on his Instagram page, using a crypto betting app.
In case the double bet wins, Drake would have an insane payout of around £2.5m.
Arsenal are clear favourites to beat Leeds, given their incredible form at the moment. But the situation in El Clasico is different.
Barca come into the game on the back of a disappointing draw against Inter in the Champions League.
Having struggled against heavyweight teams this season, the Catalans hope to leapfrog Real Madrid from the top of the La Liga table by winning the Clasico.
The revealed bets are not Drake’s only connection to the upcoming match.
Barcelona players will wear shirts with Drake’s name on it during their pre-match warmup. As the first Spotify artist with over 50bn streams, Drake will also see his OVO logo replace Spotify’s logo on Barcelona’s jersey for El Clasico.
Drake’s curse has become a widespread football meme in recent years. However, his huge wins in UFC betting might indicate he’s ready to defend his name in football too!
