PSG’S TOP SPONSORS

Nike

The American sportswear giant has been PSG’s technical partner since 1989, currently supplying the kits for their men’s and women’s football teams as well as their handball side.

In June 2019, PSG signed their ‘biggest sponsorship’ deal in history as they extended their partnership with Nike in a thirteen-year agreement reportedly worth in excess of €80 million per year, meaning by 2032 Nike will have supplied PSG kits for 43 years.

Accor Live Limitless

PSG ended their partnership with Emirates as their principal sponsor in February 2019 as they announced a new deal with French hospitality company Accor’s lifestyle loyalty programme, Accor Live Limitless (ALL).

The deal came at the back of PSG and Emirates unable to reach an agreement over the new revenue figure which ultimately saw the two parties part ways after a thirteen-year partnership.

PSG’S PREMIUM PARTNERS / SPONSORS

Qatar Tourism

Owned by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), there is little surprise that PSG are also sponsored by the Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA). The sponsorship deal is aimed to promote Qatar’s positive image on a global scale and as a premium business and holiday travel destination.

The sponsorship deal, however, has been subject to major scrutiny from UEFA over the past few years. Multiple UEFA sanctions over the years have brought the value of the QTA deal down from €145m to €58m per year. Many investigations have been carried out and continue to run in the background as this deal is implied to be one of many that the QSI Group employs to put more money into the club than allowed by UEFA’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.

Ooredoo

PSG signed a sponsorship deal with Doha-based international telecom company Ooredoo in September 2013.

As per the deal, Ooredo gets branding rights on PSG’s kits, with its logo appearing right below the numbers on the back of the matchday shirts. Ooredoo also holds naming rights for the club’s training centre (Camp des Loges), which is thusly called Ooredoo Training Centre.

QNB

Doha-headquartered Qatar National Bank (QNB) is an official sponsor of the club since 2011.

The sponsorship deal sees QNB serve as the official sleeve sponsor of PSG, with its logo appearing on the left sleeve of the club’s matchday shirt. Owned partially by the Qatari sovereign wealth fund Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) that also owns Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), QNB also provides its services for the club’s financial transactions.

QNB further strengthened its ties with the club when it roped in their star player Neymar Jr as a brand ambassador in December 2018.

Visit Rwanda

PSG signed a three-year deal with Rwanda Development Board (RDB) in December 2019 in order to promote Rwanda as a premium tourist destination.

The deal sees RDB’s “Visit Rwanda” logo appear on the left sleeve of PSG women’s matchday kits, as well as at the back of PSG men’s pre-match training kits. Rwandan tea and coffee are also served at the club’s home ground, the Parc des Princes.

Qatar Airways

PSG further strengthened their ties with Qatar in February 2020 when they roped in Qatar Airways as their Official Airline Partner after the exit of Dubai’s Emirates from their sponsorship portfolio.
