Promoted Clarets confirm new shirt sponsors

Burnley FC, having reached the end of their two-year shirt sponsorship deal with online kitchen specialists Premier Range, have announced a new deal for the 2014/15 Premier League season with Fun 88, Asia’s leading online gaming brand.

The previous shirt partnership with Fun88, between 2010-2012, proved beneficial to both parties and was a catalyst to Fun88 sponsoring the club for a second time around; a first in the club’s history and testimony to the strong relations maintained between club and the international company.

Burnley FC continues to increase their popularity in the Asian market, while Fun88 has made its mark internationally. The partnership gives both parties scope to build their business branding in the backdrop of the world’s biggest domestic football competition.

Director of Fun88, Nathan Walker, said: “Our relationship with Burnley Football Club has grown so much through the years and we are delighted to be working in tandem once again.

“This season, we are absolutely sure that the club will work wonders for our brand. And on behalf of Fun88, we are glad to support the club as much as we can.”

Lee Hoos, Burnley FC CEO, added: “I would like to place on record our thanks to Premier Range, with whom we continue to have a good working relationship.

“This new deal with Fun88 represents the biggest shirt sponsorship deal in the club’s history and we are delighted to nurture such a strong relationship with an established and successful company on the other side of the world.

“This is a great marker as to how far the club has actually come and we look forward to continuing our successful partnership.”
