AS Roma Signs New Front Of Shirt Partnership Deal With Riyadh Season

Big news in the soccer world – AS Roma just dropped a bombshell by announcing a brand new front-of-shirt sponsorship deal with Riyadh Season, a huge global entertainment event. So what's the deal and why is it such a big deal? Let's break it down.

AS Roma has been famous not just for its football skills but also for sporting the iconic SPQR logo on its kits. It's that cool writing that screams "Roma" and has been a part of the club's identity for ages. The SPQR logo, which has been a staple on AS Roma's kits, is now out of the picture. You won't find it on their jerseys anymore, and it's even vanished from the club's online store. 

With the new partnership, Riyadh Season is taking center stage as the main kit sponsor for AS Roma. That means no more SPQR on the front of their jerseys. It's such a big deal that they've even wiped SPQR off the club's online store. If you're a die-hard fan with an SPQR jersey, consider it a collector's item now.
