Mansion Sports has established a partnership with French professional football club Pau FC.
The premium partner deal began this month, and includes prominent placements of the Mansion Sports logo on the Pau FC playing and training kit, as well as Mansion Sports branding at the stadium grandstand.
Through the partnership, Pau FC will be promoted in the Asian markets where Mansion Sports has a presence, with a club tour lined up for Vietnam next year. The French outfit signed Nguyễn Quang Hải earlier this summer, marking the first time a player from Vietnam has represented a French football club.
“We are happy to have a football club rich in history such as Pau FC become part of the Mansion Sports family,” said Mansion Sports Entertainment General Manager Sunil Jamthani. “We promise to deliver only the best to our esteemed partners.”
Starting out as Bleuets de Notre-Dame de Pau in 1920, the club was then known as Football Club de Pau from 1959. However, the club went under administration in 1995 and was relegated to the fourth tier of French football.
But Bernard Laporte-Fray then became owner and reformed it as Pau FC, with the club getting promoted to Ligue 2 in 2020. After nine matches of the new season, the club is currently 14th in the league table, with two wins, four draws and three losses.
Laporte-Fray commented: “We are delighted to realise today a new step in our international development through the partnership with Mansion Sports.
“This new cooperation opens the club’s doors to a new territory with great potential, which augurs rich exchanges both in human and structural terms.”
