Flutter Entertainment will delist from the London Stock Exchange at 8am on Monday, bringing to an end more than 25 years of trading in London.

Flutter completed a secondary listing on the New York Stock Exchange in January 2024, and shareholders later backed making New York its primary listing with 98% support.
