Qatar Airways to feature on FC Barcelona jerseys

The agreement that will see Qatar Airways feature as the main sponsor on FC Barcelona’s jerseys will be unveiled on Monday, the club has announced on its website. Qatar’s flag carrier landed the opportunity to become the first corporate sponsor to appear on Barca’s shirts last year.

The presentation will take place in Barcelona in the presence of the club’s president, Sandro Rosell, and the airline’s CEO, Akbar Al Baker. 

In November 2012, FC Barcelona and Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) announced that Qatar Airways would appear on the team’s equipment for the 2013/14 season as the club’s principal global partner.

The contract between QSI and FC Barcelona stipulated that a new sponsor could be included in the third year of the agreement.
