Gillette, Procter & Gamble’s razor, shave and grooming brand, has signed a multiyear licensing deal with UEFA Champions League.

With an agreement that focuses predominantly on the UEFA Champions League competition, Gillette is preparing to launch a slew of new licensed products, from bespoke razors to shaving products, as well as launching initiatives in line with the partnership.
