Malta’s long-standing relationship with Manchester United has been extended for another five years as the island’s Ministry for Tourism, together with Visit Malta, have secured an extension of Malta’s status as a destination partner.

Malta celebrates a relationship of over 60 years with the renowned British club, with Visit Malta highlighting the “very strong” bond between the supporters’ club, the Maltese Islands.

Through the extended collaboration, the VisitMalta brand will be visible on Manchester United’s official website, social and digital media channels as well as at Old Trafford. Back in 2021, a number of Man United players formed part of a special promo video shining a light on Malta’s gorgeous locations, with players like Paul Pogba, Viktor Lindelof and Brandon Williams praising some of the island’s most iconic locations.
