Hyundai Ramps up Euro Sponsorship by naming brand ambassadors.

Korean car manufacturers Hyundai have announced a number of high profile sponsorship deals with players, to coincide with their top tier Sponsorship deal for the European Championships.


The firm who have been major sponsors of the European Championships from 2000 have announced link ups with five key players to raise their profile in the run up to the tournament which is being joint hosted by Poland & Ukraine. French striker Karim Benzima, & Chelsea and England star Daniel Sturridge  is joined by Spanish international Iker Casillas, Germany’s Lukas Podolski, Italy’s Giuseppe Rossi  in “Team Hyundai”.


The Korean manufacturer will be battling directly with Vauxhall & Mercedes Benz. With Vauxhall  recently secured sponsorship rights to all home nation's clubs in the United Kingdom. Whilst Mercedes Benz have had a long term relationship with the German Football Federation (DFB). 


The move has been welcomed by  the Senior Vice President of Hyundai Motor Europe, Allan Rushforth: "The fivesome should serve as a reminder to fans “of the excitement, dynamism and passion that football inspires – corresponding with Hyundai’s road car achievements.”


Alongside the new sponsors Hyundai is offering you the chance to win some tickets to the European Championship Semi-Finals if you test drive their new car. You can see the competition here
