Arsenal has extended its stadium naming rights deal and shirt sponsorship with Emirates airline under a deal worth 150 million pounds ($239 million).

Arsenal’s ground has been known as the Emirates Stadium since the team moved into the new north London base in 2006 and it will now continue to carry the name until 2028.

But Arsenal says the new deal will only guarantee Emirates’ name on its shirts until the end of the 2018—19 season.
