West Ham sign £2.5m sponsorship deal

Asian online betting site SBOBET will pay around £2.5million to have their logo on the Hammers’ shirt until the end of next season.

The Hammers have been playing without a sponsor on their shirt, since their former sponsor XL collapsed in September.

Chief executive Scott Duxbury said: “Finding a new sponsor usually takes six months but a lot of hard work has gone into this.”
