Result
The meticulously crafted proposal culminated in a landmark sponsorship agreement between Chelsea FC and Yokohama Rubber. In February 2015, the two parties signed a five-year deal valued at £200 million, making it the second-largest shirt sponsorship in Premier League history at the time. This partnership, commencing in the 2015–16 season, featured the Yokohama logo prominently on all Chelsea shirts, significantly enhancing the brand's global visibility. The partnership concluded at the end of the 2019–20 season, with Yokohama transitioning to the role of Official Global Tyre Partner.
