Burnley Gears Up For Season With Two Signings

Burnley FC has announced two new deals ahead of the club’s return to the Premier League, which includes the extension of its partnership with Vertu Motors.

The renewal sees Vertu Motors become the Clarets’ official automotive retailer partner for the 2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons. 

The extension follows the pair’s 2022/23 partnership as Vincent Kompany’s side won the Championship with 101 points, meaning the club will now play in English football’s top division.

Marcus Mellor, Head of Commercial at Burnley Football Club, said, “We’re delighted to continue our partnership with Vertu Motors for the next two seasons. As a football club we’re committed to forming long-standing partnerships with local businesses and strengthening our relationships across the region. Our work with Vertu Motors is a shining example of this.

“Vertu’s passion for both the football club and the local community is admirable, with their community approach aligning with our own values. I look forward to continuing to develop the partnership and coming up with more successful initiatives together over the course of the next two seasons.”

Robert Forrester, Chief Executive Officer of Vertu Motors, commented, “As a supporter of Burnley Football Club myself, it is wonderful to be partnered with the club for another two seasons. We are delighted that they’ve made it back into the Premier League; I’d like to congratulate the club for an outstanding season.

“To continue our professional relationship, as Burnley Football Club’s official automotive retailer partner, is fantastic. The promotion and everything that comes with it will certainly raise the profile of the club, and in turn, help us to further raise awareness of our brand, our dealerships, and our services in the surrounding areas. We feel just as part of the community as the club and endeavour to continue strengthening our ties local to Turf Moor.

“Here’s to a successful Premier League campaign for Vincent Kompany and the team!”

The club also announced a partnership with Soccer Supplement, which becomes Burnley’s official nutrition partner.

Soccer Supplement will work across the entire clue by aiding pitch side nutrition, and will span across the the women’s and academy teams.

Marcus Mellor, commented, “We are delighted to enhance our relationship with Soccer Supplement and to now have the opportunity to develop products to specifically meet the needs of our players.

“We were also very impressed with their desire to support the entire club, from the men’s first team to the academy and Burnley FC Women.”

Mark Britton, Soccer Supplement’s Co-Founder, stated, “We are extremely happy to announce our enhanced partnership with Burnley Football Club.

“Burnley’s growth over the last few years has been amazing to watch from afar and really pleased to be involved in their return season to the Premier League. Such a historic club with a great fan base, we can’t wait to get up to Turf Moor and support too. We hope this is a long-standing partnership.”
