Exclusive: Emirates Looking to Renew Contracts With Lyon and Benfica

Emirates' current contracts with two teams, Benfica and Lyon, are coming to an end and Emirates is willing to find a way to extend the contracts with these two teams.

Emirates Looking to Renew Contracts With Lyon and Benfica

Emirates' current deal with Lyon is for five years and will expire at the end of the 2024-25 season. Meanwhile, Emirates' contract with Benfica runs for 10 years from the 2015-16 season and will also expire at the end of the 2024-25 season, like Lyon.
