International music star Drake has reportedly wagered $1 million on Arsenal F.C. as they prepare to face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League final, intensifying the buzz around one of the season’s most awaited football showdowns.

The Champions League final is set to take place at the Puskás Aréna in Hungary on Saturday, May 30, drawing global attention as two European giants compete for continental glory.

Following reports of the bet, conversations about the so-called “Drake curse” have resurfaced among fans, with many once again questioning whether the rapper’s association with sporting events spells bad luck for the teams he supports.

This isn’t Drake’s first massive sports gamble. He previously lost a $1 million bet on Argentina during the 2022 FIFA World Cup final, even though the South American side ultimately triumphed over France on penalties to lift the trophy.

Another of his high-profile losses came when Tyson Fury was defeated by Oleksandr Usyk, further adding to the talk surrounding his betting misfortunes.

With Arsenal breaking their 22-year Premier League title drought this season, Drake’s latest stake has injected even more excitement and speculation into the buildup to the UCL final.

Whether mere coincidence or something more superstitious, the God’s Plan hitmaker’s betting activities continue to attract widespread attention whenever a major sporting event takes place.
