Chelsea sign huge shirt deal with Japanese firm

Chelsea and Liverpool line up before their English League Cup semi-final second leg soccer match in London By Tony Jimenez LONDON (Reuters) - Premier League leaders and Capital One Cup finalists Chelsea agreed "one of the biggest shirt sponsorships ever signed" with the Yokohama Rubber Company on Thursday. The tyre manufacturer will have its name on the front of Chelsea's shirts for five years starting next season. The agreement brings to an end the Stamford Bridge club's 10-year partnership with Samsung Electronics. "We believe Yokohama will play a key role in helping us drive our global expansion in international markets such as the U.S. where they have operated with distinction for many years," club chairman Bruce Buck said in a news release.
