French oil and gas giant Total has agreed a deal to title sponsor the Copa Argentina club football knockout tournament.
The company’s Total Quartz lubricants brand will serve as the main sponsor of the tournament from this year’s edition onwards.
The length of the agreement, which officially renames the competition as the Copa Total Argentina, was not disclosed.
River Plate is the defending champion, having beaten Rosario Central 4-3 in last year’s final.
Total has previously served as the title sponsor of the Copa Sudamericana, South America’s secondary club football competition. The company also sponsored last year’s Copa America Centenario national team tournament and was a shirt sponsor of Boca Juniors from 2009 to 2013.
