About time we signed a decent deal...it's not only shirt sponsorship but also stadium naming rights as well. Still waiting to hear details of the deal and what it exactly entails.
5 times what it was, 2nd globally only to Man Utd.

Nice, apparently signing a Kit deal with Adidas too...
More Monies, More (Or better) signings (Hopefully...), More success, More appeal... Domino/Snowball effect, etc, etc

The deal's not as good as it first looks. The £150m covers 5 year shirt sponsorship, training kit and extends stadium naming rights until 2028.
To put that into perspective, Utd have just bought out their £10m per year training kit deal because they thought it was too low and Arsenal were already getting £3.5-4m per year for the stadium naming rights, which most believed to be a terrible deal.
Even an extremely conservative increase to £5m per year on the stadium side of things will account for £35m of the £150m, leaving £115m for both shirt and training kit.

Not that great then. When did the stadium deal run out before the newly signed contract?
2021. It depends what value you put on the naming of the stadium, personally I think it's of little value now as it's become known by that name now, so it's likely to always be called that. Not that I use that name.
hahaha Mclaren and Barton should do a duet! ridiculous!
