EA Sports FC (previously known as EA Sports FIFA) and LaLiga entered into a multi-year agreement in August 2022, which comes into effect from the 2023/24 season. The deal is reportedly worth US$205 million over five years.

With this deal, LaLiga is set for a complete rebrand, with EA Sports FC set to become the title sponsor of all LaLiga competitions. This new partnership covers the first and second divisions of LaLiga, LaLiga Promises (the league’s annual youth tournament) and eLaLiga.

The rebrand of LaLiga also includes all logos, graphics, fonts and other visual elements, while also delivering new in-game integration, broadcast highlights and joint commitments to support grassroots initiatives.

Official Ball Partner

Puma

Puma is a German sportswear company with headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Bavaria. It produces athletic and casual footwear, clothing and accessories.

In June 2023, LaLiga announced the signing of a new multi-year sponsorship licence agreement with Puma, with the latter becoming the league’s official ball partner as well as the official technical partner from the 2023/24 season onwards.

In 2021, LaLiga announced that it was expanding its partnership with Microsoft with a focus on digitally transforming the sports experience globally. With the new collaboration, the two parties aim to work on developing technology solutions to the media and entertainment industry through LaLiga Tech.
