Popular Adult site offers Inter Milan £80m in sponsorship deal

Inter Milan will Manchester City in the Champions League finals Inter Milan will Manchester City in the Champions League finals

Champions League finalist, Inter Milan have been offered a £80 million shirt sponsorship by adult subscription platform My.Club.

The Serie A side has been playing without a shirt sponsor on their shirt for the majority of the season.

Recall that the Italian giants defeated rivals Milan to qualify for the finals of the tournament since they made their first appearance in 2010.

Inter have an ongoing dispute with cryptocurrency chain DigitalBits, who are alleged to have missed payments totaling €24m (£20.8m) over the last 12 months.

This has led the team to search for a shirt replacement since November.

And ahead of their showdown with Manchester City in Istanbul on June 10, My.Club have made an offer - proposing a deal of up to €100m to become their official sponsor until 2029.

An exclusive account has already been set up for them, with a message that reads: "This page and T-shirt secured exclusively for probably the best football team in Europe."

It would give Inter somewhere to upload exclusive content for their fans for a set monthly fee, and they could potentially interact with players or club legends as part of Q&A's.

Vice president of My.Club, Mike Ford, said: "Here at My.Club we’re all about penetrating new verticals. Much how Inter’s players squeeze their balls into tight spaces, into the box and then score, we’re looking to do the same.

“We want to sponsor them as they conquer Europe. We can increase their visibility along the way and help drive interactivity, engagement and ultimately boost their authentic communication with fans.

"We’d love to see Lautaro Martínez sharing his exclusive footage on My.Club after the final Champions League game vs Man City."
