Hammers rule out stadium report as “drivel”

West Ham United have scoffed reports  that a new £100million mega deal with sponsorship deal could be the outcome of the London Development Corporations hope of West Ham landing a naming rights deal.

The report claims that combining a new sponsor with the naming rights for the London Stadium could see a £20million-a-year deal signed over five years.

The report comes after it was revealed that LLDC would sell the naming rights for only £4million-per-year this week [Simon Stone].

Betway currently pay £10million-per-year for sponsorship alone, but with betting companies likely to be soon banned from that, the door could open.

However, a top source at the London Stadium has totally rubbished the suggestions in an exclusive comment to ClaretandHugh.

He said: “The stadium have been trying to get £4m a year since the stadium opened. NOBODY WANTS IT. There is zero chance of anybody paying £20m. The whole article is sadly drivel.”
