Shirt sponsorship is a vital source of income for clubs. Along with qualification for and progress in various tournaments, it can affect their level of activity in the transfer market and therefore have a knock-on effect on the team's performances on the pitch. For kit fans however, how the sponsor logo looks on the jersey is equally important. Read on to find out when each Premier League club's deal expires, and who may be in the running to take over.
Arsenal - Fly Emirates - 2024
Fly Emirates have appeared on Arsenal's shirts since 2006 and has been extended several times. The current contract is up in 2024, so there's at least one more season left in this one. The club earn £40 million a season from the airline, but will be looking for improved terms for their next deal.
Aston Villa - Cazoo - 2023
Villa will definitely have a new sponsor for the 23-24 season. Cazoo will not be renewing this deal, or any of the others they started around Europe last summer, as their own financial difficulties mean they have had to cancel these commercial partnerships. Aston Villa have reportedly an agreement in place with betting firm BK8 for next season but fans want the club to reconsider.
Bournemouth - Dafabet - 2024
Bournemouth's deal with Dafabet will expire at the end of the next campaign so there will likely be no change until then.
Brentford - Hollywoodbets - 2023
The Bees are heading itno the final months of their current deal and should be able to negotiate something more lucrative from a new sponsor this summer thanks to their success in the Premier League since they gained promotion.
Brighton - American Express - 2031
American Express are in this one for the long haul. The company has its headquarters in Brighton and also bought the naming rights to their stadium in 2019. They will pay Brighton £100 million pounds in total over the duration of the deal.
Chelsea - Three - 2023
There was talk of this deal ending even sooner than planned last season amidst the sanctions on Chelsea's then owner, Roman Abramovich. That didn't happen in the end, but the current campaign looks sure to be the last one Chelsea fans will have to endure with the numeric logo on their kits.
Crystal Palace - Cinch - 2024 (at least)
Cinch came on board with Palace last season in what was announced as a multi-year deal, so there has to be at least one more season to go before it expires, possibly more.
Everton - Stake - 2024 (at least)
Like Palace, Everton also signed a "multi-year" deal with betting company Stake last summer, so 2024 is the earliest possible expiry date.
Fulham - W88 - 2023
Betting site W88 previously had one year partnerships with Wolves and Aston Villa, and they added Fulham to that list in 2022. The contract is up this summer so Fulham will be in the market for new sponsor.
Leeds - SBOTOP - 2024?
Another mysterious multi-year deal, but the Athletic expect this one to continue for another season. The value of that additional year will depend on whether or not Leeds are still a Premier League club by then.
Leicester - FBS - 2024
23-24 will be Leicester's third season with FBS on their shirts. The club earn £12 million a season from the trading firm.
Liverpool - Standard Chartered - 2027
Liverpool are Premier League champions when it comes to long running sponsorship deals. The last extension with British bank Standard Chartered means the partnership will continue until summer 2027, bringing in around £50 million per season. That means Liverpool will have had just two shirt sponsors over a 35 year stretch, Standard Chartered and Carlsberg.
Manchester City - Etihad Airways - ?
This £67 million a season deal was due to end in 2021 but has continued on the same terms. City are apparently searching for a replacement, but they also have the option to extend with Etihad, who it seems will stay on as sponsor for as long as it takes. The chairman of Etihad Airways, Mohamed Mubarak Al Mazrouei, is also a non-executive director at Manchester City.
Manchester United - TeamViewer - 2023
This contract was supposed to run until 2026 but United bought back the rights, essentially bringing the deal to a close this summer so they can find a new sponsor. However, if they can't agree terms that suit them with another company, there is an option of a one year extension with TeamViewer.
Newcastle United - Fun88 - 2023
Another case of club cutting the deal short in order to find a more lucrative offer. Newcastle's new standing as the world's richest club brings with it higher expectations, both in footballing success and commercial partnerships. A Saudi sponsor seems the most likely outcome for next season.
Nottingham Forest - None
Forest were holding out for an offer of at least £8 million a season last summer and refused to budge on their valuation. Nobody obliged, so they started the season with plain shirts before filling the void with the logo of charity association UNHCR. Staying in the Premier League should boost their chances of finding a suitor that meets their demands ahead of next season.
Southampton - Sportsbet - 2024
Sportsbet have paid Southampton £7.5 million a season since 2021, with next season being the final year of the partnership. Relegation to the Championship at the end of this campaign would see that fee reduced.
Tottenham - AIA - 2027
Four more years to go in this deal that's been in place since 2013. The value rose to £40 million a season after the most recent renewal in 2019.
West Ham - Betway - 2025
One of the longest betting shirt sponsorships in the Premier League. West Ham's deal with Betway is set to reach the 10 year mark at the end of the 24-25 season.
Wolves - Astropay - 2023
Astropay signed a one year deal with Wolves in summer 2022, so we could see a new logo on their shirts next year if the offer on an extension isn't forthcoming.

Adidas Colo-Colo EQT Collection Leaked
Adidas is expanding its 1990s-inspired EQT lifestyle range to South America, with official images of the upcoming Colo-Colo EQT collection leaking online. Following recent retro drops for European giants such as Bayern Munich and Juventus, the Chilean club is set to receive its own heritage capsule steeped in unmistakable nineties football culture. Big thanks to @KamilBerberler.
The centerpiece of the range is a retro shirt dominated by Colo-Colo's traditional white, accented by subtle tonal shadow stripes running vertically down the body. It features oversized three stripes sweeping over the shoulders in bold black and red, paired with a chunky ribbed V-neck collar. Staying true to the era, the classic Adidas wordmark and Trefoil are placed centrally on the chest just above the iconic club crest.
Complementing the jersey, the wider lifestyle capsule includes a color-blocked track jacket, matching track pants, a graphic t-shirt, and a relaxed crewneck sweatshirt. The entire collection maintains the club's sharp black, white, and red palette, combining vintage paneling with modern streetwear silhouettes. The Adidas Colo-Colo EQT collection is slated for release in the coming weeks.
Kit Blunder: Matheus Cunha Wears Inverted Sleeve Badges in Manchester Derby
Manchester United striker Matheus Cunha was spotted sporting an unusual kit detail during Sunday's Manchester derby against Manchester City. Eagle-eyed kit enthusiasts quickly pointed out that the Brazilian forward took to the pitch with his sleeve badges completely reversed on his 26-27 home shirt.
Under standard Premier League kit regulations, the official competition badge and "No Room For Racism" patch must be applied to the player's right sleeve, while the left sleeve is reserved for the club's commercial sleeve partner. On Cunha's long-sleeve jersey, however, the configuration was flipped: the sponsor logo was applied to his right arm, leaving the Premier League badge positioned on his left sleeve.
Side-by-side images comparing Cunha's jersey to teammate Marcus Rashford clearly showed the contrast between the standard layout and Cunha's swapped sleeves. Whether caused by a mix-up in the kit room or an accidental printing error during match preparations, the subtle mistake provided a unique talking point for shirt collectors.
River Plate 26-27 Away Pre-Match Kit Leaked
Official images of the River Plate 26-27 away pre-match kit have surfaced, revealing a clean retro-inspired look produced by Adidas. Following the release of the club's tricolor away strip in August, this warm-up top expands River Plate's heritage-driven collection for the 26-27 season. Big thanks to @KamilBerberler.
The Adidas River Plate 26-27 away pre-match jersey features a crisp white body paired with bold red raglan sleeves and a matching white collar. Emphasizing the classic aesthetic, the shirt showcases the iconic Adidas Trefoil logo in red on the right chest, opposite a vintage circular CARP crest in red on the left. Across the upper back, large red block lettering spells out "RIVER" to complete the minimalist, old-school design. The shirt is paired with white shorts sporting black Three Stripes on the sides.
The new River Plate 26-27 away pre-match jersey is scheduled to be worn by the squad during warm-ups for away fixtures and will be available to purchase in the coming weeks.
Al Sadd SC 26-27 Third Kit Released
Al Sadd SC and New Balance have officially unveiled the club's new third kit for the 26-27 season. The release completes the Qatari giants' collection for the campaign, following the earlier launches of their white home and black-and-gold away jerseys.
The New Balance Al Sadd 26-27 third shirt brings a classy, lifestyle-infused color combination to the pitch, combining a light sand beige base with deep olive green accents. It features a classic polo collar with an open V-insert alongside matching olive sleeve cuffs, while the fabric itself is treated with a subtle diagonal jacquard weave.
All logos on the front of the shirt adopt the contrasting olive green hue, including the New Balance logo, Qatar Airways chest sponsorship, and a stylized, modern circular Al Sadd crest with concentric line detailing and the year 1969 positioned beneath two stars.
Hong Kong 2026 Home & Away Kits Released
Nike and the Football Association of Hong Kong, China (HKFA) have officially revealed the new Hong Kong 2026 national team kit collection. Celebrating 15 years of partnership between the brand and the association, the new launch is built around the theme "One Home, One Team, The Whole Hong Kong" and was officially photographed inside the newly constructed Kai Tak Stadium.
The Nike Hong Kong 2026 home shirt features a subtle two-tone design, cleanly divided down the vertical center into two distinct shades of red. It utilizes a central chest layout, placing the circular HKFA federation badge prominently in the middle with a white Nike Swoosh positioned directly beneath it. Black accents run down the sides and frame the collar, while a dragon graphic from the association's identity is printed inside the neckline. Black shorts and red socks complete the home strip.
The new away kit adopts a crisp white base complemented by modern, asymmetric accents in red and black along the collar and side trims. Together with a vibrant green goalkeeper shirt and new anthem jackets, the Hong Kong 2026 collection will hit select retail shelves starting September 19, 2026.
Al Gharafa 26-27 Away Kit Released
Qatari side Al Gharafa SC has officially launched its new away kit for the 26-27 Qatar Stars League campaign. Made by Adidas, the new alternate shirt arrives shortly after the club rolled out its primary home look.
The Adidas Al Gharafa 2026-27 away jersey introduces a distinctive vertical striped design set against a clean white base. Blue and yellow stripes run down the front, complemented by an asymmetrical layout that features a blue right sleeve and a yellow left sleeve. The collar combines both primary club colors, while the Adidas performance logo appears in blue and the QIIB sponsor badge sits centrally across the chest.
The new away shirt completes the club's set alongside the previously unveiled 26-27 home kit, which sports a vibrant yellow base with royal blue Three Stripes and trim. Both shirts are now officially available through the club's retail channels.
