Barca shirt deal

BARCELONA has agreed a record shirt sponsorship deal with the Qatar Foundation worth 30 million euros (US$40 million) a season through to the end of the 2015-16 campaign, the La Liga champion said yesterday. The deal is the biggest for any soccer club, Barcelona said on its website, and will net the Catalan side about 165 million euros in total, including 15 million euros for the remainder of the current season. The Qatar Foundation, founded by Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa al-Thani, the Emir of Qatar, in 1995, has projects focusing on education, scientific research and community development. It is also engaged in several corporate joint ventures. Real Madrid's 23-million-euro deal with Internet bookmaker bwin was the next biggest.
