The Betway logo will appear on the front of West Ham's playing shirts and training wear for the remainder of the 2014/2015 season and beyond.

No contractual details for the agreement were disclosed.

"Like us, Betway are an ambitious, forward-thinking company and the size of the agreement reflects our status as one of the fastest-growing brands in world football."

Betway's executive director Bob Dutnall added: "West Ham United are a club with a rich history and passionate supporters and we're thrilled to have secured this sponsorship at a time when the team are performing so well."

West Ham United will debut their new Betway 2015 kit against Manchester United on 8th February.
