Mumbai City FC Finds A New Sponsor In Etihad Airways

UAE’s national carrier, Etihad Airways, has signed a sponsorship agreement with Mumbai City FC. Per the paperwork for the multi-year partnership, the airline is the new ‘Front of Shirt’ sponsor for the football club, which has won two Indian Super League championships and two Indian Super League Cups.

The agreement will see the Etihad Airways logo feature prominently on the front of the shirt of Mumbai City FC’s first and youth match outfits and training kits. The partnership between the two starts from the 2024-25 season.

Earlier this year, the carrier from the Middle East also signed on to become the official sponsor for Chennai Super Kings, a team that has multiple Indian Premier League titles to its name.

Etihad Airways is also celebrating 20 years of flying to India this year. To mark the occasion, it began operating an Airbus A380 on its Abu Dhabi-Mumbai route on September 1, 2024.
