West Ham have revealed their new sleeve partner in a unique video starring Inbetweeners’ actor David Schaal.
The Hammers has expanded their existing partnership with Intuit QuickBooks Ltd, whose logo will now appear on the sleeve of shirts worn by the men’s and women’s first teams, the Academy, as well as all replica shirts.
The 2024-25 West Ham United home shirt, which will launch on Wednesday 3 July, will be worn by the men’s first team during fixtures against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Crystal Palace on their pre-season Sunshine State Tour to the United States.
It will also be worn by the women’s team as they take part in the Perth International Football Cup as part of their pre-season preparations.
The expanded partnership will see Intuit QuickBooks align with West Ham to champion and celebrate small businesses that are part of the local community in East London.
