Swiss watchmaker, Hublot, agreed a multi-million pound sponsorship deal with English Premier League club, Manchester United.
Under the four-year deal, which is thought to be worth £10 million, Hublot will become the official timekeeper to the Premier League and European champions. The company, which is based in Nyon, near Lake Geneva, produced the official watches for Euro 2008 and has been involved in football for just two years.
Manchester United, chief executive David Gill, said: "We're delighted to welcome such a prestigious partner as Hublot to the Manchester United family. Their reputation for excellence and innovation makes them a fitting and exciting sponsor for the club”.
Hublot is the fourth sponsor to commit to the Old Trafford club since the start of the season, following Saudi Telecom, Seoul Metropolitan Government and Budweiser's renewal.
