Newcastle United to land biggest sponsor deal in club history ahead of 2023/24 season

Newcastle United are set for their biggest-ever sponsorship deal for the 2023/24 season with their agreement with Fun88 ended a year early.

News of Fun88's deal in 2017 brought with it talk that the agreement was the most lucrative in club history as former stars such as Supermac, Bob Moncur and Frank Clark launched the kit at the training ground. The Chinese betting firm will see their logo on the shirt for the final time in the Premier League after the last match of the season away to Chelsea though.

Half a decade ago the word at United was that Fun88's deal had beaten the £24million Wonga deal in place in the years before. But at £6.5million a year, Fun88's deal could look like a drop in the ocean as the club prepare for their next big commercial move.
