Fun88, Newcastle's current shirt sponsor, replaced Wonga three years ago. The three-year sponsorship deal was said to be the biggest in the club’s history - it runs out after this season.
Saudi Aramco (Arabic: أرامكو السعودية ʾArāmkō al-Saʿūdiyyah), officially the Saudi Arabian Oil Company (formerly Arabian-American Oil Company), is a Saudi Arabian multinational petroleum and natural gas company. It is one of the largest companies in the world by revenue, and according to accounts seen by Bloomberg News, the most profitable company in the world. On December 4 2019, it raised $25.6 billion in its IPO, making it the world's largest IPO to date.
Newcastle United, meanwhile, has reportedly signed an one-year extension with Puma for the 2020-21 season. From the 2021-22 season, it is likely that a new supplier will make Newcastle United's kits - at least there will be a new bidding process for the right to make their kits from 2021.
