Chairman of Emirates Group, Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, made the announcement alongside Real president Florentino Perez at the Santiago Bernabeu. The officials have revealed that the deal will run for five years and is an improvement on the €24 million per year deal with bwin – making it the biggest sponsorship deal in Real Madrid’s history.
The news of this deal was originally brought to public attention in April. According to the reports then, talks for a €30 million-a-year deal were in process.
