Manchester United will announce the most lucrative shirt sponsorship deal in football history in the next few hours after agreeing an £80million partnership with Aon Corp, the American financial giant.
Current sponsors AIG, the American insurance firm, said in January that it would not be renewing its £14m-per-year contract after it suffered massive losses during the global economic downturn.
United always maintained they were confident of securing an improved deal when their current contract ends in May 2010 and The Wall Street Journal claim the contract with Aon is worth £20m per year over four seasons.
AIG will continue to have its name on the club's shirts next season, before the Chicago-based financial services company take over the sponsorship in June 2010.
1. Bayern Munich (T-Home) £17.03m per year
2. Real Madrid (Bwin) £12.78m
3. Chelsea (Samsung Mobile) £10.73m
4=. Schalke '04 (Gazprom) £10.22m
AC Milan (Bwin) £10.22m | Makes it second biggest sponsorship deal.
