“The collaboration has been founded off a shared passion for entertainment and sport on the global stage, driven by both organisations’ mission to foster a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment for its fans and athletes,” the club said on its website.

Fulham FC Women currently play in the London South and East Regional Football League, which is in the sixth tier of the English women’s football pyramid.

“There has been significant progression and growth of FFC Women in recent seasons since the squad transferred to the performance side of the Club,” said head coach Steve Jaye. “Having AEW as front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2024/25 campaign is a massive forward step and we are grateful for their support, commitment, and belief in our objectives.”

Fulham FC is owned by billionaire Shahid Khan, who also owns the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars and co-owns All Elite Wrestling with his son Tony Khan. Tony serves as Fulham’s director of football as well as president and CEO of AEW.

“Both Fulham Football Club and All Elite Wrestling hold a special place in my heart,” Tony said on Fulham’s website, “and the partnership established here represents not only an elevation of both organisations on the global stage, but also a reminder of our investment and commitment to furthering women’s creative and athletic endeavours at all levels. Come on Fulham!”
