Arsenal 'agree £10MILLION-a-year shirt sleeve deal with Visit Rwanda for another four seasons'

Rwanda's president was raging at Arsenal's pitiful performance against Brentford on Twitter just days ago, but now the tourism partner have signed a new £40m deal.

The Premier League season kicked-off with a shock underdog victory, as the newly-promoted Bees stung Arsenal. Mikel Arteta's side promptly received a merciless slating from all sides.

The sleeves of the north Londoners' shirts have been occupied by Visit Rwanda since 2018, and despite watching the match have signed a four-year extension to their sponsorship deal.

The deal is reportedly set to cost £10million-per-year, according to Chris Wheatley, as the tourism brand put their weight behind the fallen giants.
