Manchester United Approach Sahara For Sponsorship Deal

“We can confirm that we have received a proposal for team sponsorship, it is an elaborate one. We received the proposal a few days ago. At this stage I cannot give any more details.

United’s four-year $100 million deal with AIG runs until the end of next season and a club spokesman confirmed on Tuesday that Sahara were one of the companies approached as a potential replacement.
