Uber Eats will serve as an official partner of Ligue 1 next season before putting its name to the competition for the following two years, with the league set to be known as Uber Eats Ligue 1 until the end of the 2021/22 campaign.
According to French daily newspaper Le Figaro, Uber Eats will pay the LFP €32 million (£28/$36m) over the course of the agreement, marking a significant increase on the reported €20 million (£32/$40m) paid by furnishing and household appliances retailer Conforma, Ligue 1’s previous title sponsor.
“This major agreement reflects the new dimension taken by Ligue 1,” said LFP Chief Executive Didier Quillot.
