CHELSEA have been offered a lucrative sponsorship deal by an adult website.
The Blues are yet to agree a front-of-shirt sponsor after ending a deal with previous partner Three, which was worth £40million a year.
Adult website My.Club have reportedly offered Chelsea a similar fee to have their logo emblazoned across their shirts.
The president of the X-rated website Mike Ford told The Mirror: “We here at My.Club want to sponsor Chelsea as they look to improve on last season’s disappointment.
“We want to have the My.Club logo emblazoned on the front of Chelsea’s jerseys before the club kicks off its 2023 season against Liverpool.
“This contribution would work for both parties. For Blues, it will help to make perfect signings like Kylian [Mbappe]. For us, it will ensure Blues fans have only two clubs to call ‘mine.’

“It would be great having Mbappe, [Mykhailo] Mudryk and other Chelsea players sharing their training exclusives and hosting AMAs on My.Club, a platform for all creators.”
Chelsea are yet to reach an agreement with any company so face starting the season without a shirt sponsor.
Yet they are in no rush to agree terms with CEO Chris Jurasek unwilling to compromise on the value of any deal as it could set an unwanted precedent for future negotiations.
Previous talks with German banking giant Allianz fell through after they offered just £20m a year.

Chelsea have also been linked with a one-year, £40m deal with betting group Stake.com.
The Blues were also blocked from agreeing a deal with Paramount Plus by the Premier League because of the risk of “upsetting current broadcast partners”.
