Thanks for clearing that up matigol – I seem to recall there was some issue with a French Grand Prix some years ago for similar advertising issues.

At any rate, the way Liverpool are going at the moment, it may not be an issue next season…

Alcohol sponsors are banned in France. It’s the fourth season in a row that Liverpool have had to play without sponsor on shirt (Bordeaux 2006, Marseille 2007, 2008, Lyon 2009).

addendum: The prohibition – if such it is – would be from the country in which the game is being played; Liverpool played with the logo in the home tie.

I must say it had escaped my notice… but these are my immediate thoughts.

I know that they are currently sponsored by Carlsberg, in a deal which extends to the end of this season.
They are not expected to renew their £8m pa deal, as Liverpool are looking for a deal worth nearer £15m pa – and would have had no difficulty, I suspect, until recent events… and exit from Europe, or worse, non-qualification for next year, would be a huge blow to their earning potential.

But back to your question – I suspect that advertising alcohol breaches some regulations which all nations have to adhere to in order to be televised around the world.
Don’t quote me on it – but it seems a valid speculation.
Any confirmatory information would be handy.

Can anyone shed some light on why Liverpool has no sponsor on this jersey?

Thanks.
