Every Premier League club has a 2026/27 sleeve sponsor after Chelsea signed Sokin. Six are betting brands and four are payments or crypto firms.

Six slots belong to betting brands that moved off the shirt front, four to payments or crypto firms, and the biggest reported deals sit at Arsenal with Deel and Manchester United with SumUp.

Key facts

20 of 20 Premier League clubs have a sleeve partner for 2026/27, based on club announcements and contemporaneous reports. Chelsea and Manchester United started the season without one and filled the slot in October and September.
Six sleeve sponsors are betting brands: Betano, MrQ, Chexx, Stake, Bally Bet and Shuffle. The league's front-of-shirt gambling restriction does not cover sleeves.
Four are payments, fintech or crypto firms: Sokin, SumUp, OKX and Kraken. Two more, Deel and HiBob, sell payroll and HR software.
Most clubs do not disclose sleeve fees. The highest reported figures are more than £20m a year for SumUp at Manchester United (City AM) and about £18m, rising to £25m, for Deel at Arsenal (Score and Change).

What the 2026/27 sleeve market shows

The sleeve has become the main home for betting money in the Premier League. Villa, Everton and Forest moved existing front-of-shirt betting partners onto the sleeve, while Bournemouth and Palace signed new gambling brands. Rules elsewhere are often stricter, as the site's list of countries restricting football betting sponsorships shows. Outside betting, the slot is dominated by financial technology and business software, from SumUp and Sokin to Deel and HiBob. Training-kit deals are a separate inventory and are not counted here: Manchester United's Betway training-kit deal was reported by the BBC at £20m a year, Chelsea signed Legora for its training-kit sleeve in June 2026, and Newcastle lists SumUp as training kit partner.

Methodology

This list counts the 20 clubs in the 2026/27 Premier League and records the brand on each club's matchday shirt sleeve as of 13 November 2026. Each pairing was checked against a club announcement, a partner's own release, or a contemporaneous report from a named outlet; where only a report was available, the entry says so. Clubs are listed alphabetically because most fees are undisclosed, so no value ranking is possible. Reported fees are attributed to the outlet that published them and are not club-confirmed figures. Women's and academy deals are mentioned only where they share the men's sponsor. Last updated: 13 November 2026.
