Manchester United Signs Training Kit Deal with DHL

Defending English Premier League champions Manchester United have signed a 40 million pounds ($66 million) training kit sponsor deal with express delivery and freight firm DHL.

According to a press release from DHL:

DHL, the world’s leading express and logistics company, has today become the first official training kit sponsor of Manchester United.

The new four-year-agreement sees the DHL logo included on the clubs’ training kit worn by all first, reserve and youth team players during domestic competitions and builds on DHL’s relationship behind the scenes at the club.

DHL has been the Club’s Official Logistics Partner for a year and played a key role supporting United’s pre-season tour of the United States, and will continue to work hard to help deliver success on and off the pitch.

To mark the extended partnership, and as part of United’s celebrations of its record-breaking 19th top-flight championship win last season, the logistics company will be delivering the Club’s gift to its fans attending this evening’s match against Tottenham Hotspur – 73,000 specially-commissioned commemorative scarves.
