Gate.io, the cryptocurrency exchange firm, has announced a partnership with Italian soccer giants Inter Milan.

Starting from the 2024-25 season, Gate.io will become the official sleeve partner for Inter, and will see its logo on the sleeves of the men’s, women’s, and under-20s teams’ playing kits.

The deal will consist of Gate.io branding on the LED boards at Inter’s stadium, a range of exclusive content, joint-marketing activations, co-branded merchandise, and fan experiences.

The brand will make its debut on the Inter jerseys’ sleeves on August 30 when Inter host Atalanta.

Last month, Inter and Italian luxury menswear brand Canali announced a three-year partnership, designating Canali as Inter’s official formal wear partner.

The deal will debut in 2024-25, with the Inter players to wear two different outfits designed by Canali, one for the spring, and one for the winter.
