Circle 首席执行官 Jeremy Allaire 表示，USDC 建立在“货币应像互联网一样为世界各地每个人无缝运转”的理念之上，与切尔西的合作连接了一个基于同样无国界愿景的全球体育社群。切尔西主席 Jason Gannon 则称，这一合作使切尔西站在足球数字化演进的前沿。该协议的具体金额与期限未予披露。
此次合作正值加密行业在 2022 年市场低迷后重建体育赞助版图。此前 Crypto.com 曾以 7 亿美元拿下原斯台普斯中心 20 年冠名权，OKX 也曾与曼城合作。今年 6 月，英国金融行为监管局曾警告英超等足球俱乐部警惕与未授权加密企业的赞助协议，而 Circle 持有英国 FCA 电子货币机构牌照。切尔西将在周日主场对阵布莱顿的比赛中首次身披带有 Circle 与 USDC 标识的球衣亮相。
