Manchester City Women’s
Football Club has announced a new long-term partnership with Italian production
house Salento Creazioni Moda.
The team’s first ever global
formalwear partner, the link-up will see the players wear a limited edition,
hand-sewn collection at the club’s Barclays FA Women’s Super League fixture
against Manchester United at the Academy Stadium in February 2021.
There will also be a number
of further occasions across the course of the 2020/21 season and beyond where
the team will be dressed by the south of Italy creatives.
Courtesy of the partnership,
throughout the duration of the current campaign there will be a number of fan
engagement activities and bespoke content featuring members of Manchester City
Women’s first team squad.
Salento Creazioni Moda will
also hold the sponsorship of the club’s prestigious Player of the Year accolade
which will be presented at the End of Season Awards.
The Italian brand will also
be retailing the limited-edition co-branded collection with Manchester City
directly online through their own e-commerce channels in February.
The pair will be working
together to enable fans to purchase the co-branded collection through the
Official City shop and will announce full details in the coming months.
Commenting on the new
partnership, Gavin Makel, Managing Director of Manchester Women, said:
“Everyone at Manchester City is delighted to welcome Salento Creazioni Moda as
