At a news conference at the arena, the club also unveiled their own team jet, an Airbus A-330 in the team's sky blue colours with their name and badge emblazoned on the sides.
The deal, according to widespread British media reports, is
worth a reported 150 million pounds spread over
the next 10 years, and will give the club a major revenue boost,
