Man United confirm Qualcomm's Snapdragon as new shirt sponsor
Manchester
United have agreed a deal with US technology company Qualcomm that will see its
Snapdragon brand replace the TeamViewer logo as their shirt sponsor from next
season, the Premier League club said.
The club did
not reveal the financial details of the deal but The Athletic reported Qualcomm
and United had agreed on a contract for a minimum of three years, with the Old
Trafford-based side "targeting an agreement worth 60 million pounds
(US$74.92 million) per year".
United
signed a five-year deal with German tech firm TeamViewer in 2021 to be their
principal shirt sponsor, replacing Chevrolet.
However,
United said in December that they had reached a "mutually-beneficial
agreement" with TeamViewer giving the club the option of buying back the
rights to its shirt front sponsorship.
It added
that it would undertake a focused sales process in a "normalised
market", having agreed the TeamViewer deal at the height of the COVID-19
pandemic.
"Manchester
United has agreed to an expanded strategic collaboration with Qualcomm
Technologies, that will see the Snapdragon brand displayed on the front of the
club's famous shirt," United said in a press release late on Tuesday.
"Qualcomm
Technologies is already a global partner of Manchester United, promoting its
Snapdragon brand.
"Under
the expanded agreement, Snapdragon will become Manchester United's
front-of-shirt partner from the start of the 2024-25 season, featuring on the
home, away and third kits of the men's and women's teams."
United
signed a 900 million pounds deal with Adidas in July, renewing their
partnership with its official kit supplier for 10 more years.
