About the partnership of UEFA Champions League and UniCredit Group

In 2009 UniCredit Group signed a three-year partnership contract with UEFA Champions League. One of the main initiatives in relation to the sponsorship is the first European Tour of the UEFA Champions League Trophy, which in the first year visited Bulgaria as well. The Trophy was welcomed by the residents and guests of Rousse. It was placed for two days in a special pavilion in front of Ivan Vazov Theatre in Sofia for all who wanted to take a picture with the Trophy. Then it was sent to the finals in Madrid by the residents and guests of Pleven. Around 24 thousand people saw the European Football’s Holy Grail while in Bulgaria.
