Chelsea have agreed a new £40+million-a-season shirt sponsorship deal with American technology giants Infinite Athlete.
Both parties had hoped to confirm the deal on Tuesday but were delayed as they awaited a green light from Premier League bosses.
Chelsea fans on social media began to speculate about the shirt deal when rumours leaked from the club’s pre-season media day.
But a source close to the deal confirmed to Mail Online: 'It’s just awaiting Premier League approval.'
All being well, Mauricio Pochettino's side will wear the new branded kit for the first time in this Sunday's Premier League opener at home to Liverpool.
