Emirates hands Arsenal $280 million in record sponsorship deal. Arsenal has just secured its biggest sponsorship deal ever. The top London soccer club and Emirates Airline on Monday announced a 5-year extension to their shirt partnership lasting until the end of the 2023-2024 season.
The deal would also be the third highest in world soccer, behind only FC Barcelona, which has a $122 million per year agreement with Nike, and Real Madrid, which extended its deal with Adidas earlier this year.

Premier League champions Manchester City have signed a long-term kit deal with Germany's Puma, replacing their current agreement with Nike. He said Puma wanted to "maximise on-field performance as well as football culture, in areas such as music, gaming and fashion, to connect and inspire the fanbase of each team".
Emirates first signed its sponsorship agreement with Arsenal in 2004, providing the airline with naming rights to the stadium until 2021 and a shirt sponsorship that began in the 2006-07 season.
The deal is reported to be worth £60m a season for the next 15 years, but the club did not confirm any cash figures. Chelsea said it was an "incredibly exciting and important deal" for it.

They were bought out by Sir Henry Norris that year and to improve the club's financial standing, he moved the team to Arsenal Stadium, Highbury, north London in 1913. After the First World War he arranged for the club's promotion back to the First Division, in controversial circumstances.
The club was founded in 1886 and took the name Royal Arsenal after its first game, combining the moniker of the Royal Oak pub, where the team members met, with that of their workplace, the Arsenal munitions factory in Woolwich.
