Manchester City player to sign $1.7M Gucci sponsorship

Manchester City superstar Jack Grealish is set to sign an historic Gucci sponsorship worth $1.7 million

According to reports from the Sun, the footballer is about to enter into an unprecedented deal with Italian fashion giant, Gucci.

The 26-year-old will be the first sportsman to be a Gucci ambassador and will be obliged to wear outfits the brand sends him.

This kind of deal is unheard of in the football world, but it’s an indication of Grealish’s talent and global recognition on and off the field.

The England superstar is already Britain’s most expensive footballer with a whopping $183 million transfer to Manchester City.

This Gucci partnership cements the brand firmly on a footballer that is bound to succeed in this World Cup year.
