Finally. But of what I understand we are sponsoring our right hand with our left hand. How worried should we be about it?

Well - it was approved by the PL, and they certainly took their time reviewing the deal.

Also, I think this is a short term deal. We might be switching sponsors again after this season.

We are really lucky to get 40m for 8 months sponsorship without European footy and in this mess. 40m per season was with Three deal. Thank you Boehly for this dodgy company because no chance any reputable would do it.

If only something called raging inflation existed, they'd probably find out why the deal matches Three, despite being 5 games shorter…

A number of clubs have made formal complaints to the Premier League about Chelsea regarding the fair market value of the Infinite Athlete deal

Btw was there Brighton among those clubs by any chance?

They are not “rich” like some sheiks tho. They may have 300bn something assets under management but that might not mean jack for us. Those assets belong to their clients and they are obliged to invest them in a fiduciary manner. They can not simply invest it all in our club. Some of the asset management companies I have worked for have trillions of AUM, yet if they had ever invested in a football club it would only be as a small portion of their overall asset allocation within some speculative portfolio. 
 

However, I agree with heir logo would look dope on our kits and they surely would be able to cough up a hefty sum for that sponsorship.

Limited-edition Nicholas Daley clothing collection inspired by Paul Canoville

https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/limited-edition-nicholas-daley-clothing-collection-inspired-by-paul

Thanks to a special collaboration with local fashion designer Nicholas Daley, Chelsea is celebrating Paul Canoville and his legacy in style with a limited-edition clothing range, launched today.

 

Canoville’s place in the club’s history is monumental. As the first Black player in our men’s first team, his endurance began breaking down barriers on the path that leads to the diverse Chelsea of today.

Tied Together

Award-winning designer Daley is London-based and renowned for his fusion of cultural heritage and contemporary style. He, along with Canoville, has deep Caribbean roots and their heritage forms the heart of this collaboration, highlighting the power of diversity and inclusion.

His latest curation, the Tied Together collection, features a 1980s-inspired terrace tracksuit jacket and a Pride of London scarf.

Designed in Daley’s signature style, the look draws on the kit Canoville memorably wore as part of a revered promotion-winning side. There is no doubt the description iconic can be applied to one of the most popular Chelsea shirts of all time, and the Tied Together collection updates the fashion for the next generation of change-makers, inspired by the Canoville story.

Support King Canners’ vision

Launched during Black History Month and available in the Megastore at Stamford Bridge and via our online store, proceeds from the Tied Together collection will be donated to the Paul Canoville Foundation which supports young people facing adversity and helps them reach their full potential. Specifically, these contributions will go toward the PCF and United Learning initiative, which focuses on enhancing literacy, attendance, and promoting diversity, equality and inclusion in education.

NEW COLLABORATION WITH NICHOLAS DALEY | TIED TOGETHER

Tied Together. Our limited edition collection highlights the incredible work and impact on our community of Paul Canoville, our first men’s black player, while connecting a new generation to the history of the game. In commemoration of Black History Month, this range hits home the power of diversity and inclusion, with London-based designer Nicholas Daley also sharing Canoville’s Caribbean roots. All proceeds of the collection will go to the PCF and United Learning initiative, which focuses on enhancing literacy, attendance, and promoting diversity, equality, and inclusion in education. Shop the collection now.

Current Chelsea players are giving their backing to the project, with men’s team captain Reece James leading a line-up including Levi Colwill, Sam Kerr, Conor Gallagher, Kadeisha Buchanan and Zecira Musovic, as are fans such as Ellis Gilbert, who is one of the ambassadors for our Blue Creator Fund, and Felicia Pennant, who featured in the Caribbean Voices series marking the Windrush anniversary.

Celebrating culture and diversity

Speaking about the launch of his collection, Daley said: ‘Fashion has the unique ability to tell powerful stories and connect us with our heritage. Collaborating with Chelsea on this project has been an incredible journey, and I am honoured to pay homage to Paul Canoville through my designs.

‘Canoville's legacy, marked by resilience and pioneering spirit, is a source of inspiration not only for me but for all who embrace this collection. Together, we celebrate diversity, culture, and the enduring impact of individuals who break barriers.’
