SUNDERLAND Football Club has announced its third lucrative sponsorship deal in two months with the launch of a travel business.

The club, which was last weekend promoted to the Premiership, has struck a three-year deal with Leisure Path Limited, part of the Global Travel Group, to form Sunderland Travel.

Leisure Path will provide all of Sunderland AFC's business travel, as well as transport to and from matches for players and supporters. It will also offer a range of holiday deals, allowing fans to choose from 400 tour operators, and trips to Ireland for the club's pre-season friendly fixtures are already on offer.
