Manchester United will wear the (RED) logo on the front of their shirt for a second consecutive year. The front of United's shirts are sponsored by Snapdragon, who have agreed for charity (RED) to have their logo on the kit again to raise awareness of the global fight against 'health injustice'.

Qualcomm Technologies have had the logo of their brand Snapdragon on the front of United's shirts from the start of the 2024/25 season. The California-based company have worked closely with charity (RED) over the last few years to change lives in vulnerable communities, helping to fight AIDS.

United are set to wear the (RED) sponsored kit when they face Brentford in the Premier League at Old Trafford on April 25. The women's team will wear the kit on the following day against Tottenham.

The (RED) logo was used on United's kit for the first time when the Reds played West Ham last season.

The limited-edition adidas shirt will be available for supporters to buy and all net profits will be donated to (RED)’s Global Fund, which has raised more than £600m since its launch 20 years ago.

Don McGuire, chief marketing officer at Qualcomm, said: “Snapdragon’s mission has always been to deliver technology that makes a difference in people’s lives, and our continued support of (RED) reflects that commitment.

"With billions of Snapdragon-powered devices around the world, we’re helping unlock access to lifesaving healthcare and essential resources that might otherwise be out of reach.

"As Manchester United’s front-of-shirt partner, we’ve seen, first hand, the global impact of that placement. There’s no better cause to spotlight for Manchester United’s more than one billion fans than (RED) and its fight to end health injustice.”

Marc Armstrong, chief business officer at United, said: “Through the power and innovation of our partnership with Snapdragon we are, once again, proud to use the front of the famous Manchester United shirt to raise awareness and tell the story of the vital work undertaken by (RED) to fight against health injustice.

"Snapdragon shares our ambition to use football as a force for good and the second year of this initiative underlines that aspiration, especially at a time when the world faces enormous challenges in supporting the most vulnerable in society.”
