Just Eat Takeaway.com, a titan in the global online food delivery market, has recently announced the extension of its partnership with UEFA, underscoring its strong presence across Europe's premier football tournaments. This extended collaboration includes the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Europa Conference League, continuing until 2027. This partnership, one of the most comprehensive in UEFA's history, not only demonstrates Just Eat Takeaway.com's commitment to football but also encompasses both men’s and women’s competitions under different contracting cycles.
