Ringier Sports AG no longer markets FC Zürich

Since summer 2018, Ringier Sports AG has been responsible for the overall marketing of the city of Zurich's football club FC Zürich. At the end of the current season, the contract will expire and both parties have subsequently agreed to no longer continue the cooperation.

Since July 1, 2018, Ringier Sports AG has successfully marketed the traditional club FC Zürich, which plays in the top Swiss professional football league. 

The Ringier Sports marketing contract covers all commercial media and sponsorship rights. On June 30, 2022, the contract expires and both parties have agreed not to renew it for the new season. 

Alexander Grimm, CEO of Ringier Sports: “We would like to thank FC Zürich for the pleasant and good cooperation over the past four years with one of the most successful Swiss clubs and we wish FC Zürich, its partners and sponsors continued success in the Credit Suisse Super League.”
