The club management simulator Football Manager, published by the British group Sports Interactive, has become a partner of West Bromwich Albion FC (Premier League) for the 2015-16 season, the club announced on 12/11/2015.

The Football Manager logo will be displayed on the LED advertising boards and interview panels at The Hawthorns stadium (25,600 seats). West Bromwich Albion are also a partner of the football simulation game FIFA16, developed by EA Sports, for the entire 2015-16 season. "We chose to partner with West Bromwich Albion FC because the club represents everything that we like about football; it's deeply embedded in its community, but still enjoys a global reach," said Miles Jacobson, studio director of Sports Interactive.

The club generated £10.5m (€14.92m) in commercial revenue, including £7.6m (€10.8m) from sponsorship, in 2013-14. The club's turnover was £86.8m (€123.4m) over the same Premier League season.
