               Arsenal Sporting Director, Edu said: "This is a very exciting agreement that will help us develop the
               best possible environment for our men's and women's players, coaches and support staff for years to
               come. Our training centre is a big part of our people's lives. It's not just about working hard on the
               pitches, but also working in our office spaces, learning, relaxing and spending time with teammates,
               colleagues and their families. We are building a winning team and a winning culture; attention to detail
               is very important and it's crucial that our people have the right conditions to prepare well and perform
               at their best."

               Ravi Menon, Co-chairman of Sobha Realty, said: "At Sobha Realty, we aim to establish robust
               partnerships that transcend boundaries, and our journey with Arsenal exemplifies this ethos. From
               securing the naming rights at The WM club to becoming a Principal Partner and renaming the club's
               training ground as "Sobha Realty Training Centre", highlights the evolution of our collaborations and
               our commitment to fostering excellence.


               "Together, we seek to leave a lasting legacy and make a significant impact that goes beyond
               sponsorship. This collaboration represents our commitment to quality, expansion and innovation, not
               just in the US and the UK, but on an international scale. Our global targets complement Arsenal's
               remarkable legacy and together we aim to explore new horizons."

               Francis Alfred, Managing Director of Sobha Realty, said: "We are delighted to extend our partnership
               with Arsenal to new heights by securing this landmark naming rights under which the club's training
               ground will be renamed Sobha Realty Training Centre.

               estate and sports, as it paves new paths of development for both Sobha Realty and Arsenal. As the
               first-ever naming rights partner of Arsenal's training ground, we seek to leverage our extensive
               experience in the field of real estate development to create an ideal environment for players and staff.
