Chelsea to Be Only Club Without Shirt Sponsor at 2025 Fifa Club World Cup?

Chelsea FC is set to be the only participating team in the new enlarged 2025 FIFA Club World Cup to feature no front-of-shirt sponsor throughout the tournament. We can see this thanks to the infographics of Football Kit Archive.

Chelsea Has No Front-of-Shirt Sponsor

The London club, which qualified for the expanded 32-team competition through its UEFA coefficient ranking, will, as of today, don jerseys free of a front-of-shirt sponsor when the team takes to the field in the United States this summer.

Chelsea has been without a front-of-shirt sponsor since its pseudo deal with Infinte Athlete expired after the 2023-24 season. Chelsea signed a sleeve sponsor deal with Live Nation for the "remainder of the 2024-25 season." We expect the Live Nation logo to also feature in the 2025 Club World Cup.

All other 31 participating clubs, including Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Flamengo, will display their regular commercial partnerships on their kits throughout the competition.

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup runs from June 15 to July 13 across various venues in the United States.

Chelsea is also the only Premier League team with no main sponsor in the 2024-25 season. The only other team in a top league without a main sponsor is Lazio.
