Barcelona are being tipped to overtake Manchester United in landing
the world’s most lucrative kit sponsorship deal, according to reports.
Spanish source Mundo Deportivo
claims the La Liga champions will announce a new deal with Qatar
Airways shortly, which could see them make
€65 million (£47.6m) a year.
United broke the record for highest kit deal when they struck a deal
with Chevrolet, which sees them bring in a cool €64m per year.
This is certainly significant business by Barca, who didn’t even have
a shirt sponsor until as recently as 2006, and that was with charity
UNICEF.
They made the transition to corporate sponsorship with the Qatar Foundation in 2011.
