MANCHESTER UNITED had the most-lucrative shirt sponsorship contract in world football.
But, they will have to find someone else to decorate the front of their famous jersey.
Manchester United’s Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo looks on in his TeamViewer sponsored top – with a contract worth £235m
Man Utd’s shirt sponsorship deal with Chevrolet was also one of the most-lucrative in the world, worth £61m per season
Chelsea boast the fifth most valuable contract – with Three – worth £40m per season
United used to rake in £61million per year from American car giants Chevrolet.
The deal was worth £64m per season and was due to run until it ran out in 2021.
United then turned to US software firm TeamViewer who signed a five-year deal with the club worth a whopping £235million.
However, that will end after this campaign – with TeamViewer pulling the plug after they saw 70 per cent of their share price wiped off by their association with the club.
Real Madrid come in second, pocketing £60m a season from Fly Emirates.
Barcelona (Rakuten) and Paris Saint-Germain (Accor) come in third and fourth, earning £47m and £43m respectively.
An incredible five of the next six clubs hail from the Premier League.
Chelsea‘s deal with Three sees them take home £40m per season – good for fifth on the list.
Manchester City‘s £39m-a-year contract with Etihad Airways sees them take the sixth spot.
Bayern Munich come in seventh, with their partnership with T-Mobile worth £36m per season.
Liverpool‘s deal with Standard Chartered sees them edge out North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham.
The Reds take home £27m per year, more than the Gunners (Emirates, £26m) and Spurs (AIA, £25m).
