Melbourne Victory gets in shape with new shirt sponsor

Australian A-League football club Melbourne Victory has agreed a shirt sponsorship deal with weight loss brand Optislim.

The one-year deal covers the 2016-17 A-League season and names Optislim as the club’s new principal partner.

Under the agreement, Optislim’s logo will feature on the front of Victory’s home shirt.

The team wore the Optislim-branded shirt for the first time earlier today (Friday) during the opening game of the A-League season against Brisbane Roar. The match finished 1-1.
