The 'Everton Hummel' news was trending all over social media after the Toffees confirmed their new sponsorship deal with the Danish sportswear company. It is reported that the new Everton kit deal with Hummel will fetch the Merseyside outfit a club-record fee in the range of around £9 million per season over the next three years. Although the new 'Everton Hummel' deal gives the Toffees faithful reason for excitement, their sponsorship value is significantly low in comparison to Merseyside rivals Liverpool, and Manchester United.

The 'Everton Hummel' deal is expected to yield the Merseyside club around £9 million per year, which is roughly double their current sponsorship deal, over the next three years. However, Carlo Ancelotti's Everton have decided to finish the remainder of the games in the 2019-20 season donning the SportPesa-sponsored Umbro kits. The club-record 'Everton Hummel' deal will kick in ahead of the 2020-21 season as the sportswear company will provide kits for the men's, women's and academy squads at Goodison Park. Hummel will also provide the kits for the coaching and community staff at Everton. Despite securing an estimated £9m-a-year club-record deal with Hummel, Everton's sponsorship dwarfs in comparison to Premier League titans  Manchester United and Liverpool.
