Chelsea<\/a>‘s chief revenue officer has departed Stamford Bridge less than two years into the role \u2013 with the club still without a shirt sponsor.<\/p>\n

Casper Stylsvig was hired in November 2023, having held the same post at\u00a0AC Milan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the time, former Chelsea chief executive Chris Jurasek hailed the new man\u2019s \u2018commercial and football experience\u2019.<\/p>\n

Before heading to Milan, Stylsvig spent three years at Fulham<\/a>, and eight years as Manchester United<\/a>\u2019s global sponsorship director, having started his career with Barcelona<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Chelsea are the only top flight team without a shirt sponsor, which can be a critical source of revenue in the era of Profit and Sustainability rules.<\/p>\n

They are thought to have had offers, but none have resulted in a deal. The club have reportedly looking for between \u00a360m and \u00a365m a season, with new Saudi airline Riyadh Air strongly linked.<\/p>\n

Chelsea had no shirt sponsor last season until a short-term deal was inked with Dubai-based property firm Damac. They also started 2023-24 without a shirt sponsor before striking a \u00a340m agreement with US tech firm Infinite Athlete.<\/p>\n

Chelsea have been approached for comment.<\/p>\n
