5) Tottenham – £40m a year
We could have gone with Arsenal in our top 5 as they have a similar sponsorship deal with Emirates but Spurs’s agreement with AIA lasts until 2027 and is worth £320m.
The Hong Kong based multinational insurance firm signed a new eight-year contract with Tottenham back in 2019.
They had originally been the sponsor for cup competitions during the 2013/14 season before starting their period as the sole title sponsor at the beginning of the 2014/15 campaign.
At the end of their current agreement, AIA’s association with Spurs would have lasted 13 years.
